CND-Initiated Enterprises

Exavir Therapeutics – A CND faculty-initiated biotech pharmaceutical entity for the development of nanoformulated anti-retroviral therapeutics.. Products planned for clinical trials will be processed through the Nebraska Nanomedicine Production Plant (NNPP), our cGMP facility.   

NeuralRegen – A new CND faculty-initiated biotechnology enterprise dedicated to the discovery of therapeutics that can interdict the progression of neurodegenerative pathologies associated with Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. Products in current development include chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) regulatory T cells (Tregs) or CAR-Tregs with specificitie for amyloid beta (Aβ) for Alzheimer’s disease and nitrated α-synuclein (N-α-Syn) for Parkinson’s disease. Products utilized for clinical trials will be manufactured through collaborations with Matt Lunning, DO and the UNMC Biologics Production Facility (BPF).
