About iBio

iBio, Inc. is a biotechnology company that provides contract development and manufacturing services to collaborators and third-party customers in the United States. It is a developer of next-generation biopharmaceuticals and the pioneer of the sustainable FastPharming Manufacturing System ®. The company operates in two segments: Biopharmaceuticals and Bioprocessing.

iBio’s High-Quality Protein Products: Current products include growth factors, cytokines and lectins, as they play an important role in the research and development of various diseases such as cancer and autoimmune diseases. iBio's high-quality proteins can be used for a variety of applications, including SDS-PAGE, ELISA, cell culture supplementation and Western blot. These products are recombinant GNA, recombinant human Flt3L with His tag (Flt3L-His), recombinant human interleukin 6 (IL -6) and recombinant human stem cell factor with His tag (SCF -His).

Pioneering the Next Generation of Biopharmaceuticals using the FastPharming Technology: The FastPharming System is iBio's proprietary approach to producing drugs and proteins in plants. It uses hydroponically grown transiently transfected plants, novel expression vectors, a large-scale transient transfection method and other technologies that can be used to produce complex therapeutic proteins. iBio believes that the FastPharming System will enable biologics production that is faster, less expensive and more environmentally friendly than other approaches.

Operating in Biopharmaceuticals and Bioprocessing Segments: iBio's biopharmaceutical segment is currently focused on developing products using the FastPharming System in the areas of therapeutics (antifibrotics and oncology) and vaccines (COVID -19 and classical swine fever). The Bioprocessing segment, on the other hand, is active in the business areas of services and research and bioprocessing.

Partnerships and Collaboration: iBio, Inc. has a licence agreement with Planet Biotechnology, Inc. to develop therapeutics for infectious diseases, a collaboration agreement with The Texas A&M University System to develop 2019 coronavirus disease vaccine candidates, a licence agreement with the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria, and a collaboration agreement with CC -Pharming Ltd.
