Their lead drug candidate, BPS-001, is a unique disruptive therapy for various forms of cancer. The initial target indication is prostate cancer. Unlike conventional therapies like chemotherapy, hormone depravation therapy or immunotherapy, BPS-001 has the following advantages.
A multivalent mechanism, which targets multiple pathways and sites on the cancer cell, which means the cancer will be unable to develop resistance to the treatment which is the case in currentInhibits angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels from existing blood vessels).Increases apoptosis (a process of programmed cell death) of cancer cells.Exhibits properties that counter inflammation.BPS-001 has very low toxicity giving it a large therapeuticEase of administration, a once weekly subcutaneous
Need for a drug that is not susceptible to drug resistance The overwhelming majority of anticancer drugs on the market today are susceptible to resistance and become less effective or ineffective over time.
Need for a cancer therapy with minimal side effects Cancer therapies are known to be some of the more toxic therapies available. As well as being toxic, they are often non-specific meaning that they do not only target cancerous tissue, healthy tissue is also effected.
Need for effective late stage prostate cancer therapy If caught early, prostate cancer is often treatable. However late-stage prostate cancer patients have fewer effective treatment options.
Cancer is a very aggressive indication that finds alternative pathways to multiply. Current therapies target singular pathways that. Consequently a patient must enlist multiple therapies to conquer the aggressive nature of a cancer Cancer's multivalent mechanism is the processes by which cancer cells use more than one channel to grow and spread. BPS-001's multivalent mechanism responds to this occurrence by targeting these channels.
