-
- Technology Overview: Engineered sialic acid substitution for optimal glycosylated biotherapeutics; a highly stable sialic acid derivative is conjugated to a glycan of choice during downstream processing in a scalable, compliant fashion
- Primary Application: Biotherapeutic development & production, especially Biosimilars
- Early sialylation correction for removing heterogeneity & test functionality
- Removing issues of Neu5Gc contamination
- In drug development & manufacture for removal of heterogeneity and increasing potency
- Core Differentiators:
- Novel chemistry-based approach to sialylation correction rather than trying to control the manufacturing process
- PermaCarb is highly stable to enzyme attack
- Incorporation of PermaCarb can lead to biotherapeutics that can be administered at lower doses or reduced frequency, whilst ensuring a similar characterisation & efficacy profile as originator drug
- Development Stage: PreClinical
- Company: Glythera Ltd (glythera.com)
- Opportunity: Available for License
