Halda is inventing novel precision medicines for oncology. Specifically, we are developing RIPTAC™ therapeutics, a new drug modality for the treatment of cancer. Founded by world renowned Yale scientist, Professor Craig Crews, Halda invented RIPTAC therapeutics as an innovative cancer treatment approach that does not rely on traditional oncogenic disease drivers to target cancer. This powerful technology is designed to overcome the known bypass mechanisms of drug resistance, a common limitation of today’s precision cancer medicines. Using a novel ‘hold and kill’ mechanism, RIPTAC therapeutics target cancer cells selectively by bringing two proteins together in a tightly regulated manner, causing the loss of an essential function for cell survival and subsequent cancer cell death. We have built a pipeline of RIPTAC therapeutics for major cancer types, uniquely addressing the unmet needs of drug resistant cancer patients, and we will continue to invent new medicines using our proprietary platform technology. We are a bold company where collaboration, passion, and creativity thrive, all of which allows us to push the boundaries of drug discovery to identify better solutions. Halda is proud to be a New Haven, CT based biotech, located with headquarters and state-of-the-art labs in Science Park.
