Dualsystems Biotech

Active Biotech AB (publ) (NASDAQ Stockholm: ACTI) is a biotechnology company that deploys its extensive knowledge base and portfolio of compounds to develop first-in-class immunomodulatory treatments for specialist oncology and immunology indications with a high unmet medical need and significant commercial potential. Following a portfolio refocus, the business model of Active Biotech aims to advance projects to the clinical development phase and then further develop the programs internally or pursue in partnership. Active Biotech currently holds three projects in its portfolio: Naptumomab, a targeted anti-cancer immunotherapy, partnered to NeoTX Therapeutics, is in a phase Ib/II clinical program in patients with advanced solid tumors. The small molecule immunomodulators, tasquinimod and laquinimod, both having a mode of actions that includes modulation of myeloid immune cell function, are targeted towards hematological malignancies and inflammatory eye disorders, respectively. Tasquinimod, is in clinical phase Ib/IIa for treatment of multiple myeloma. Laquinimod is advancing to a clinical phase I study with a topical ophthalmic formulation, to be followed by phase II for treatment of non-infectious uveitis.

Addex Therapeutics is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of an emerging class of novel orally available small molecule drugs known as allosteric modulators for neurological disorders. Allosteric modulators offer several potential advantages over conventional non-allosteric molecules and may offer an improved therapeutic approach to conventional "orthosteric" small molecule or biological drugs. Addex's allosteric modulator drug discovery platform targets receptors and other proteins that are recognized as essential for therapeutic intervention. Addex's lead drug candidate, dipraglurant (mGlu5 negative allosteric modulator or NAM), is poised to start a pivotal registration clinical trial for Parkinson’s disease levodopa induced dyskinesia (PD-LID) in H1 2021. Addex is also investigating dipraglurant's therapeutic use in blepharospasm (a type of dystonia), for which a clinical trial is expected to be initiated in H1 2021. Addex's third clinical program, ADX71149 (mGlu2 positive allosteric modulator or PAM), developed in collaboration with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., is scheduled to enter a phase 2a proof of concept clinical study for the treatment of epilepsy in H1 2021. Addex’s GABAB PAM program has been licensed to Indivior PLC for the treatment of addiction. Preclinical programs include GABAB PAM for CMT1A, mGlu7 NAM for PTSD, mGlu2 NAM for mild neurocognitive disorders, mGlu4 PAM for Parkinson’s disease and mGlu3 PAM for neurodegenerative disorders. Addex is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and NASDAQ Capital Market, and trades under the ticker symbol "ADXN".

Aurora Fine Chemicals is a privately held company that was founded in 1990. As a chemicals R&D supplier we offer chemicals for R&D, drug discovery service, compound libraries and custom synthesis. We have one of the largest collections of 18.1 mln. chemicals available in stock and our docking software delivers hits/leads of very high quality in short time.

Our staff consists of highly qualified individuals with Bsc, Msc and Ph.D. degrees in chemistry, as well as excellent laboratory technicians. In our Molecular Modeling Group are professionals specializing in computational drug design. They possess many years experience of working in the chemistry of heterocycles, carbohydrates, nucleosides and elemental organic compounds. Aurora has significant expertise in synthesis of all types R&D chemicals for drug discovery like small molecules, natural products and peptides. Parallel synthesis with well-designed, targeted and fragment-based libraries is the favored approach to lead optimization. Rational design is the strategy for projects driven by structural biology, such as enzyme inhibitors or protein interactions.

We own a large library of 18.1 million stocked compounds for R&D. Our substances are used in many research labs all over the world. We offer structures for biochemical and chemical research. Our products are applied in pharmaceutical development, diagnosis, and in chemical production.

Several laboratories for synthesis with modern equipment such as reactors, autoclaves, thermostats and hydrogenation equipment are available.

Intermediates and final products are analyzed by GC, HPLC, IR, NMR, MS, elemental analysis, atom-absorption analysis and crystallographical methods.

The main advantage of Aurora's own software is the quality of the underlying physical models. Aurora's software derives molecular properties from first principles based on direct models using advanced quantum mechanical analysis of molecular interactions and thermodynamics.
