Reneo
Diamond Sponsor
About Reneo Pharmaceuticals
Reneo is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of therapies for patients with rare genetic mitochondrial diseases, which are often associated with the inability of mitochondria to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Our lead product candidate, REN001, is a potent and selective agonist of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARδ). REN001 has been shown to increase transcription of genes involved in mitochondrial function and increase fatty acid oxidation, and may increase production of new mitochondria.

Stealth BioTherapeutics
Diamond Sponsor
About Stealth BioTherapeutics
Stealth BioTherapeutics, located in Needham, MA, USA, is an innovative biopharmaceutical company developing therapies to treat the mitochondrial dysfunction associated with genetic mitochondrial diseases and many common age-related diseases. Our mission is to lead the development of mitochondrial medicine to improve the lives of patients with diseases involving mitochondrial dysfunction, an area of high unmet clinical need. At Stealth BioTherapeutics, our work is personal and we believe strongly in the potential of our science to deliver new treatment solutions and improve quality of life for patients with diseases involving mitochondrial dysfunction. Many of the targeted diseases currently have no FDA-approved treatments, presenting a significant unmet medical need that we hope to address. Our team works closely with patients and healthcare professionals to achieve our mission of developing therapies for rare and common age-related diseases involving mitochondrial dysfunction. We collaborate closely with patient advocacy to understand how these diseases impact the daily lives of patients and to better inform our clinical development efforts. We also partner with leading institutions, physicians and scientists to develop our mitochondrial therapies. In preclinical studies, elamipretide has been shown to restore mitochondrial function at the cellular level with resulting improvement in the function of organ systems such as skeletal muscle, eye, brain, heart and kidney. Our hope is that this investigational therapy will help improve the prognosis and quality of life for patients and families whose lives are touched by mitochondrial disease.
Oroboros
Diamond Sponsor
For over 30 years, Oroboros Instruments has been delivering the O2k-technology for mitochondria, bioenergetics, and cell research. The NextGen-O2k is a complete experimental system for high-resolution fluorespirometry, redox biology and PhotoBiology. It enables simultaneous monitoring of oxygen consumption together with either coenzyme Q redox state, NAD(P)H redox state, cyclic voltammetry, H2O2 production (AmR), mt-membrane potential (TMRM, Safranin and Rhodamine 123), Ca2+ uptake capacity (CaG), ATP production (MgG) or photobiology measurements. The O2k-technology facilitates the study of mitochondrial function in cancer, diabetes, aging, neurodegeneration, exercise physiology and mitochondrial medicine.
GenSight
Diamond Sponsor
GenSight Biologics is the first European biopharma and tech company to develop and combine gene therapy with pioneering technology in order to create and give access to new therapeutic solutions for patients with severe ophthalmic diseases.
Created 10 years ago, GenSight Biologics is the result of a unique partnership between academic research and entrepreneurship. We combine the advantages of a biotech with those of a pharmaceutical company.
We have a singular focus: provide access to treatments for patients suffering from vision loss. Our therapeutic area is serious degenerative diseases of the eye and central nervous system. Our approach is to pave the way to bring breakthrough therapies to patients.
We are present at the major stages of gene therapy and technological innovation. We develop, test, produce and market therapeutic approaches supported by our two proprietary technology platforms: Mitochondrial Targeting Sequence, or MTS, and optogenetics. Our biologic compound is capable of restoring cellular functions altered by a rare mitochondrial disease in the heart of the retina. Separately, we leverage optogenetics, which harnesses the latest science, combining optics and genetics, to amplify light stimulation on neuronal cells, resulting in partial restoration of sight.
