🔬Messaginglab and Degron Therapeutics Partnered on a $1.2B Collaboration Announcement - With Big Results 🧬 We're thrilled to have collaborated with Degron Therapeutics - an emerging leader in the discovery of small molecule, molecular glue degrader drugs - on their recent press release announcing their $1.2B collaboration with Takeda. Molecular glue degraders are small molecule drugs that act as adhesives by bringing a disease target protein to another protein called E3 ligase, which is a component of a protein degradation machinery. As a result, the disease target protein is “tagged” as trash and degraded in the cell. This approach has the potential to target previously undruggable proteins, opening new avenues for treating challenging diseases in cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative and other disorders. Messaginglab's Impact: 💡Translating Difficult Science: We simplified the complexity of molecular glues to help Degron reach a broader audience. Our approach resonated widely for investors, partners, and the public. 💡Amplifying Media Presence: Through targeted outreach, we secured coverage in 20 top life science and pharma publications, including Biocentury, BioWorld, Chemical & Engineering News, and Fierce Biotech. This expanded visibility positioned Degron as a key player in biotech. 💡Crafting a Compelling Corporate Narrative: Beyond the $1.2B deal, we highlighted Degron's mission to revolutionize drug discovery. We created an emotional connection by focusing on the impact on patients' lives, elevating Degron's story above financial metrics. 💡Showcasing Thought Leadership: We positioned Degron's co-founder and CEO, Lily Zou, as a visionary leader. Her quotes and media accessibility added a human touch to the company's technological breakthroughs, building trust and credibility. 💡Driving Meaningful Engagement: Our success went beyond metrics. We focused on generating high-quality media coverage that sparked conversations among key stakeholders in the biotech community. The Power of Partnership: We're proud to have been a part of this groundbreaking work. Our collaboration with Degron Therapeutics showcases Messaginglab's ability to elevate complex science through strategic communication. #MediaRelations #BiopharmaNews

Stories making headlines today in the biopharma industry: Ironwood Pharmaceuticals' stock has taken a major hit with a 40% drop owing to ambiguous outcomes of the Phase III STARS clinical trial of Apraglutide, their short bowel syndrome drug. The drug met its primary endpoint but fell short of significantly impacting secondary outcomes. In another update, Orbis Medicines, a start-up dedicated to creating peptide drugs thanks to macrocycles, has been successful in accruing €26 million in seed funding. Prominent European VC funds Forbion and Novo Holdings provided this initial financial push. Macrocycles are gaining investor attention thanks to improvements in peptide design methods. San Diego-based biotech venture, BlossomHill Therapeutics, has also been fortunate in the fund-raising realm, amassing an incredible $100 million in Series B investment. This huge financial incentive will enable the integration of three oncology small molecules into clinical trials and facilitate swift gathering of preliminary efficiency data by H2 2025. The venture was initiated in 2020 by ex-Turning Point Therapeutics co-founders J. Jean Cui and Y. Peter Li. The philanthropic venture, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), has revealed that it's funding four basic biology research networks. These multi-year grant packages, averaging $14 million over three years, will directly benefit universities in their quest to examine RNA and protein networks in cells, bypassing traditional government finance channels that often sideline unpredictable research initiatives. Lastly, Kenai Therapeutics has procured $82 million in financial backing for their dedicated Parkinson's disease research. The fund will escalate efforts to unveil the cure for this critical disease and save many lives in the near future. #pharma #biotech #topstories #biodatastudio

Happy to announce LongeVC invested in CatenaBio, a biotech startup that transforms the design of biologic drugs. CatenaBio is spun out of Berkeley Lab famous for the discovery of CRISPR by Dr Jennifer Doudna and her colleagues. We have contributed to the startup’s seed extension round with a raise of $2.35M. What is cool about CatenaBio is their quite transformative vision for biology. Let’s unpack it. As you probably know, traditional drug discovery is mostly focused on small molecules -- low molecular weight compounds often synthesized chemically. Aspirin and Ibuprofen are good examples here. Such drugs can be very potent. The issue with many small molecule-based drugs is that they are kind of "promiscuous" actors, which may affect many targets and render off-target effects. They are a “one-size-fits-all” kind of drugs. In contrast, biological drugs, or biologics, are large biomolecules, like antibodies. They are extremely specific to their targets, so have little-to-no off-target effects. Going further, a very powerful and innovative combination is so called conjugates, when biologics are combined with small molecules or other drug modalities to create powerful and very targeted drugs at the same time. In this case, the best of both worlds (chemistry and biology) is utilized, so to speak. Great example here is a very dynamic area of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) -- they are exceptionally promising in fighting age-related diseases, cancer and so on. But CatenaBio goes even further than that! In classical ADCs there is only one drug “warhead” and so there is limitation in treatment possibilities. CatenaBio is developing Multi-Payload Conjugate (MPC) technology by combining two payloads with different mechanisms of action (MOAs) on a single antibody. CatenaBio’s technology also allows combining various biologics. The result is the ability to synthesize novel biomolecules in any structure, combination, or orientation—the only limitation is imagination. I believe this company is creating a new world of drug discovery and I am glad we are contributing to this future! #biotech #drugdiscovery #venturecapital Image credit: CatenaBio
