Company Description

BioLeap offers a proprietary technology platform to identify and optimize lead compounds to discover novel drugs.

BioLeap is an emerging drug discovery company enabled by the next generation of computational fragment-based design technology. BioLeap's design platform quickly predicts binding affinity based on thermodynamic principles giving drug designers new insights to efficiently create non-obvious molecules and improve existing molecules. Lack of chemical diversity has blocked the progress of many high-priority targets during the lead identification and lead optimization phase for failure to provide either a suitable chemical starting point or a replacement structural class to a doomed lead series. BioLeap's technology provides a viable alternative to high-throughput screening and traditional shape-based “docking” approaches. BioLeap has identified lead compounds in four collaborative ventures and is seeking new partners who are interested in exploiting its compelling compound design and engineering platform.
