Polaris Group, a privately held multinational biopharmaceutical drug company, specializes in the research and development of protein drugs to treat cancer and other debilitating diseases in humans.
Polaris' lead project is ADI-PEG 20, a biotherapeutic agent that is in advanced clinical development for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic melanoma.
Polaris is collaborating with EnzymeRx in the development of Uricase-PEG 20 for the treatment of gout, tumor lysis syndrome, and other diseases related to hyperuricemia.
Polaris is also researching and developing other biotherapeutic agents and has a small molecule drug program. The latter utilizes a rational structure-based approach for the design of novel compounds that inhibit the biological function of cancer-related protein targets.
FLAG Therapeutics Inc., headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, is an early-stage oncology
company focused on the development of therapies based on two novel classes of small molecule,
water-soluble drugs. In vivo studies suggest that both classes of compounds, antiangiogenic/
anti-tubulin (AA/AT) compounds and folate-targeted anti-cancer (FTAC) compounds,
hold the potential to treat multiple cancer types with greater safety and efficacy than conventional
therapies. FLAG Therapeutics has obtained exclusive worldwide rights to these compounds from
Duquesne University.
