Scientist.com Announces the Launch of Compliance Mobile App for iOS

Scientist.com | February 02, 2023 | Read time : 02:00 min

Scientist.com Announces

On February 1, 2023, Scientist.com, the biopharma industry's largest R&D marketplace, announced the release of a new iOS mobile app. The app provides a new, easy-to-use, on-the-go experience for purchase request approvals and compliance. In addition, iPhone users receive untethered notifications for accepting, delegating, and clarifying requests without needing to use their computers. The result is speedier approvals and fewer delays in scientific discovery.

Scientist.com has spent the past fourteen years developing a digital marketplace that allows scientists to devote more time to science and less time to paperwork. The platform enables researchers to test more ideas in less time and at a lesser cost. It digitizes a company's complete research activities, automatically tracking purchases, contract management, payment processing, and generating business intelligence reports.

Scientist.com Founder and CTO Chris Petersen commented, "One of the major barriers to drug discovery is the time it takes to ensure all compliance measures are met for a given research project, and understandably so." He added, "Our goal in building the Compliance Mobile App is to put compliance in the pocket of approvers, therefore minimizing the time it takes for researchers to move through the R&D process."

ATUM and Codiak | January 25, 2023

On January 24, 2023, ATUM, a global leader in bioengineering solutions, announced that it has signed a comprehensive licensing agreement with Codiak BioSciences, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, for the Leap-In Transposase® technology. ATUM will grant Codiak access to its Leap-In Transposase® technology in order to create mammalian cells expressing exosomes engineered to deliver therapeutic payloads under the conditions of the agreement. The Leap-In technology is a comprehensive solution that integrates patented re-coding algorithms, unique genetic vector elements, and a transposon-based mechanism for efficiently inserting genetically stable elements into the genome. "Through years of rigorous research and clinical validation we have created a platform for engineering and manufacturing therapeutic exosomes with various payloads on the surface or inside the lumen. We believe ATUM's transposase technology has the potential to effectively synergize with Codiak's engEx® Platform to further enhance loading these vesicles, making them more potent and reducing cost of goods," Commented Scott Estes, Ph.D., VP of Cell Line Development at Codiak. (Source – Business Wire) "Exosomes are bio vesicles that have the potential to fundamentally change drug delivery. We are proud and excited to license the Leap-In Transposase® technology to Codiak for the engineering of cell lines that enables rapid and robust production of exosomes," said Claes Gustafsson, Ph.D., Chief Commercial Officer and Co-Founder at ATUM. (Source – Business Wire) About Codiak Founded in 2015, Codiak is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical firm focused on developing exosome-based treatments, a new class of medications with the potential to change the treatment of a variety of diseases with high unmet medical needs. It created a proprietary engEx Platform that uses exosome biology as natural intercellular transfer mechanisms to design, construct, and manufacture innovative exosome therapeutic candidates. By utilizing its engEx Platform, it has produced a rich pipeline of engineered exosomes for neuro-oncology, oncology, neurology, neuromuscular, and infectious diseases.

Atreca and Xencor Launch New Program to Develop T Cell Engaging Bispecific Antibody

Atreca, Inc. | February 07, 2023

On February 6, 2023, Atreca, Inc. (Atreca), a biotechnology company that develops novel therapeutics through a deep understanding of the human immune response, with a focus on innovative novel cancer immunotherapeutics, and Xencor, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that develops cytokines and engineered antibodies for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and cancer, announced, as part of their existing strategic collaboration, that they have mutually selected the first program combining an Atreca-discovered antibody with Xencor's XmAb® bispecific Fc domain and a cytotoxic T-cell binding domain (CD3). The initiative announced is the first of up to two collaborative programs that can be selected by mutual agreement for future development and commercialization, with each partner sharing 50% of expenses and earnings. This program's clinical development, regulatory, and commercialization operations will be led by Atreca, while Xencor will lead the second prospective joint program. Furthermore, the agreement permits each partner to pursue up to two collaborative programs separately. The unveiled joint program is based on APN-346958, an antibody discovered by Atreca. APN-346958 targets a new RNA-binding protein and is tumor-reactive in at least 50% of samples for six tumor types tested: thyroid, colorectal, head and neck, melanoma, urothelial, and brain cancer. In preclinical tests, the XmAb bispecific antibodies engineered against the target of APN-346958 displayed substantial anti-tumor activity. Atreca and Xencor hope to name a candidate from the program later this year, with Atreca aiming for an investigational new drug (IND) application in early 2025. About Atreca Founded in 2011, Atreca is a biopharmaceutical firm that employs its distinct discovery platform to create innovative antibody-based immunotherapeutics. Its Immune Repertoire CaptureT​M (IRCTM) technology provides unmatched insight into how cancer patients' immune responses can lead to improved clinical outcomes offering access to an undiscovered terrain in oncology. Atreca was created by industry leaders, scientists, and investors who believe that unlocking today's patients' immune responses is the key to developing a new generation of therapies.
