A disruptive hypoxia activated prodrug for the treatment of resistant cancers: an AI-driven approach
TUMAGOSTIC aims to advance CP-506, a targeted Hypoxia Activated Prodrug, through clinical trials to improve cancer treatment efficacy and patient outcomes, with commercialization potential exceeding €450M.
Projectdetails
Introduction
TUMAGOSTIC will advance the development of CP-506, a next-generation Hypoxia Activated Prodrug (HAP) for the treatment of hypoxic tumours, representing over 50% of all solid tumours.
Advantages of CP-506
CP-506 overcomes the limitations of previous HAP development attempts and can provide more targeted treatment compared with alternatives such as:
- Chemo-immunotherapy combination
- PARPi
Innovative Approach
Our approach, combining CP-506 with improved patient targeting based on two AI-driven biomarkers (tumour hypoxia and Homologous Recombination Defect), has high potential to increase the effectiveness of standard of care therapies such as immunotherapy (IO) in combination therapy (prodrug-IO).
Expected Outcomes
This innovative strategy aims to improve patients’ progression-free survival and quality of life in several cancer types.
Commercialization Plans
We aim to advance CP-506 towards commercialization by carrying out a phase I-IIa clinical trial and corresponding business development activities, paving the way for a licensing agreement with the potential to exceed €450M.
