This SBIR Phase I project, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084), aims to develop a method to turn on cancer immunotherapies only at the site of disease. The $275,000 award will support Synsorybio, Inc., a for-profit organization, in creating protein switches that activate immunotherapies in response to disease signals, rather than indiscriminately throughout the body. This approach seeks to improve...

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084) provides $303,864 to Core Biotherapeutics Inc., a for-profit organization based in Ladera Ranch, CA. The funding supports the development of a drug discovery platform to reprogram molecular networks and identify therapeutic targets for diseases such as neurodegeneration and cancer. The key technical objectives are to: 1) demonstrate that oligonucleotide-based drug efficacy is a function of transcription factor network reprogramming using a breast cancer cell line, 2) build a computational model to select transcription factor targets to reprogram networks towards therapeutic effects, and 3) demonstrate the scalability of the model in a second cancer cell line. This early-stage R&D project aims to advance a potentially disruptive approach to developing safe, effective, and broadly applicable disease-modifying therapies by targeting the underlying molecular drivers of disease.
