Ampersand Biomedicines

Ampersand Biomedicines is a biotechnology company focused on developing modular therapeutics that are localized to specific target tissues, thereby enhancing efficacy and safety in disease treatment. The company operates in the precision medicine market, addressing the critical challenge of on-target, off-tissue toxicity in drug development. Ampersand's primary clients include pharmaceutical companies and healthcare providers seeking advanced therapeutic solutions. The business model revolves around creating and programming therapeutics that combine a localizing element for disease-specific precision with an actuator for restoring healthy biology. Ampersand generates revenue through partnerships, licensing agreements, and potentially direct sales of its proprietary therapeutics.
