Who is Synthorx Inc
Synthorx Inc. is a biotechnology company based in La Jolla, California. The company is a relatively small organization with 13 employees. Synthorx focuses on developing new treatments for cancer and autoimmune disorders. Their core technology is a proprietary platform called Expanded Genetic Alphabet, which introduces a new DNA base pair to the genetic code. This allows them to create novel proteins, called Synthorins, with enhanced pharmacological properties. These Synthorins, which are optimized through the incorporation of novel amino acids, can be site-specifically modified for improved therapeutic effects. Their lead product candidate, THOR-707, is a variant of the immune system protein IL-2 currently in development for various tumor types, both as a single agent and in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Synthorx differentiates itself through its groundbreaking Expanded Genetic Alphabet platform. This technology enables the creation of entirely new proteins with enhanced capabilities, opening up possibilities for more effective and targeted treatments for serious diseases. The company's scientific foundation stems from discoveries made in Dr. Floyd Romesberg's lab at The Scripps Research Institute.
