A highly innovative approach has been optimized for efficient generation, selection, and expansion of high affinity monoclonal antibodies with neutralizing activity and unique amino acid structure. A fully human antibody could significantly reduce potential immune responses, as compared to antibody therapeutics that contain nonhuman components.

ILGEN's technology allows to detect and generate different specific high-affinity fully human antibodies for antibody-based therapy and diagnosis. In addition to cancer treatment many other conditions effectively treated by an ILGEN's human antibodies could include infections, rheumatic and autoimmune diseases, vascular and lymphoproliferative disorders. ILGEN has patent application.

The therapeutic or diagnostic fully human antibodies and fusion proteins of the present technology are those derived from human tissues with further possibility to be purified, scale-up produced appropriate quantities and used in treatment or diagnosis of human diseases as pharmaceutical agents.

Advantage of our approach is a significant reduction in turnaround time. It typically takes 1-2 years to obtain functionally validated and sequenced antibodies using traditional hybridoma and humanization methods or phage libraries. In con­trast, it would take no more than 6 months using our approach.

JelikaLite is developing CognilumTM, an innovative solution to reduce a child's autism symptoms, enabling better integration into society and improving family's quality of life. It is an intelligent wearable medical device, combining therapeutic non-invasive brain stimulation with near infrared light, EEG sensors and a personalization platform. Based on the results of its Phase I placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial, the FDA granted JelikaLite a Breakthrough Device Designation, for the reduction of symptoms of autism in pediatric patients aged 2 to 6.    Our goal is to demystify autism - by collecting data about the brain's electrophysiological activity and corresponding behavioral symptoms, Cognilum will “open a window” into the child's brain, monitor the child's symptoms and ultimately predict each child’s developmental trajectory. It will empower both parents and doctors to precisely deliver the needed personalized treatments.

Developing solutions for important global health issues

Quadrant Biosciences works with top academic institutions, medical researchers and engineers to translate breakthrough findings into thoughtfully developed and scientifically sound molecular diagnostic tools. These groundbreaking tools are part of the growing Clarifi diagnostic platform and address various neurological health challenges.  In March 2020, we made the decision to pivot and allocate some of our resources to directly address this serious pandemic.  As a result, we co-developed the Clarifi COVID-19 saliva test kit, currently the most sensitive saliva test on the market in the US.  Today, we are part of three exciting COVID-19 projects.

  • FDA issues Emergency Use Authorization of the Clarifi COVID-19 Test Kit, 2021
  • Quadrant Biosciences wins $2.3M NIH Grant to develop saliva test for concussion
  • Project of the Year, 2020 - MedTech
  • Governor Cuomo recognizes Clarifi COVID-19 Test Kit as most sensitive saliva test

Triton Bio is developing a new diagnostic test to rapidly determine the antibiotic resistance of bacteria and fungi causing life-threatening infections. Current laboratory tests take 2-5 days to provide results, and these delays jeopardize patient safety and significantly increase the cost of treatment. Triton Bio will enable lab personnel to automatically capture and analyze pathogenic microbes directly from biological fluids and swabs without the need to first grow microbes in culture. This technology will yield results in less than 90 minutes, thereby empowering doctors to choose the right antibiotics at the right time and improve clinical outcomes for patients. The company’s core technology was developed with support from DARPA between 2016-2017. Since then the founders have conducted over 350 interviews with key stakeholders with support from the National Science Foundation Innovation Corps. In July 2019 the company was awarded a SBIR Phase I grant from the National Science Foundation.

Zetagen Therapeutics (formerly Fusologics), is a pre-clinical orthopedics company developing products that activate a novel and proprietary molecular pathway for growing bone.  Discovered by accident, Fusologics' first product, Nalfuse, addresses a large unmet need for the $4b orthobiologics market and several high volume medical applications for which bone growth leads to optimal outcomes. Based on published pre-clinical data, Nalfuse activates this molecular pathway with a combination of a collagen carrier and an FDA-approved small molecule with over 40 years of high dosage, systemic clinical use for a different indication. As opposed to other products on the market that contain biologic growth factors, such as Medtronic's Infuse (BMP2), which at its peak accounted for ~$900m revenue per year but has since seen a precipitous decline in use due to high cancer risk and significant side effects, Nalfuse has shown the potential to be safer, significantly less costly to manufacture and grow bone just as effectively, if not better.
