The excellence of their previous R&D achievements of his laboratory was proven by several times selections of the nationally honorary awards such as “National R&D Excellence of 100” and “excellent basic research 50”. He also successfully performed major national drug development projects such as “Korea Drug Development Fund” and “National OcoVentrue”. Currently, on the basis of the previous outcomes from TRCP, CK Regeon Inc. has been performing R&D for development of drugs targeting Wnt/β-catenin pathway related with regeneration. CK Regeon Inc. especially interested in the diseases suppressed regeneration in damaged and disease status tissues by suppression of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling. CK Regeon Inc. identified cytosolic overexpression of CXXC5, a negative feedback regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling, as a major disease marker for the targeting diseases not only by usage of the disease model, but also by characterization of patient tissues. The aiming drug candidates revels therapeutic effects by restorative activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling followed by recovery of the tissue regeneration system. The drug candidates under the development by CK Regeon Inc. selectively function to the patients who overexpressed CXXC5, but not to healthy persons maintain low level of CXXC5 especially at cytosol. The targeting diseases include obesity, diabetes, and nan-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), as well as the topically applicable drugs promoting hair growth and wound healing.

Genemedicine
GeneMedicine(GM) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing next-generation viral immunotherapies, aiming to transform the therapeutic outcomes for cancer patients. Using our proprietary adenovirus platform, we're developing several pipeline products that can be intratumorally and intravenously administered to selectively attack and eradicate tumor cells as well as potently stimulating multiple arms of antitumor immune response. Our viral immunotherapy has proven effective as both a standalone therapy and in combination with current standard of care, including immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Intratumoral administration of GM oncolytic adenovirus offers several advantages over competitor products;(1) higher level of virus accumulation and localization in tumor tissues and (2) lower off-target systemic exposure, ultimately exerting potent therapeutic effect with minimal systemic toxicity. Our pipeline can effectively treat wide range of tumor types, including breast cancers (triple-negative and hormone receptor-positive), prostate cancer, melanoma, and non-melanoma skin cancer, desmoplastic cancers (like pancreatic cancer), and injectable visceral tumors that have spread to the liver, such as metastases from colorectal and lung cancer. To treat metastatic and recurrent cancers in late-stage cancer patients, we've developed systemic delivery platform for oncolytic viruses that avoids rapid blood clearance and inactivation by the immune system and various blood components. GM’s potent multi-armed oncolytic viral platform GM-OAd mediated oncolysis results in immunogenic cell death to trigger robust antitumor immune activation and memory formation to ensure long-term therapeutic benefit against cancer. GM has a highly scalable, low cost manufacturable platform offering highly versatile, innovative treatment options for patients with advanced or metastatic tumors.
