About
Be Biopharma uses CRISPR to engineer a patient's own B cells into continuous protein-secreting factories — a one-time treatment designed to replace lifelong enzyme replacement therapy for rare metabolic diseases. The company has raised $274 million in total financing including a $92 million Series C co-led by Nextech Invest and Bristol Myers Squibb, with ARCH Venture Partners as a continuing investor, and has an active Phase 1/2 trial (BeCoMe-9) for BE-101 in Hemophilia B.
Pliant Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotech (Nasdaq: PLRX) developing integrin inhibitors for fibrotic diseases, with lead program bexotegrast in Phase 2b/3 trials for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
About
Pliant Therapeutics develops small molecule integrin inhibitors targeting the pathological tissue scarring (fibrosis) that drives diseases including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH/MASH). Integrins are cell surface receptors that activate TGF-β, the master regulator of fibrosis — blocking specific integrin subtypes (αvβ6, αvβ1) can halt or reverse fibrosis progression without broadly suppressing immunity.
