VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Novelogics Biotechnology, Inc. announced today that it has entered into a research agreement with The Centre for Drug Research and Development (CDRD), Canadas national drug development and commercialization centre, to further characterize Novelogics' internally-developed antibody immunotherapy for treating cancer.
The proprietary technology behind Novelogics innovation involves discovery and development of monoclonal antibodies that target a protein that promotes immune suppression in cancer patients. It is predicted that this new therapy could treat a broad range of cancers, and because it works with the patients own immune system, it would be safer and less toxic with fewer debilitating side-effects.
CDRD will be analyzing the technology through custom in vitro assays that will help validate and identify their lead antibody and move it towards a Phase 1 clinical trial as early as 2019. The technology has recently shown preliminary evidence of tumour inhibition in a prostate cancer model and based on results from CDRDs research, it could be expanded to other cancer models.
Novelogics President and Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Wayne Cheney stated, We are excited to introduce our novel approach to treating cancer. Unlike other immunotherapies that function by modulating, inhibiting or blocking targets, our innovative drug works by intercepting. This is a new way of limiting the immune suppressive effects of the drug target, which offers a huge opportunity to make a difference in the fight against cancer. We look forward to a successful collaboration with CDRD and are thrilled to be working with their technical team of experts and state-of-the-art biologics facility.
CDRDs Head of Biologics Dr. Ismael Samudio commented, This work with Novelogics is an exciting opportunity for CDRD to apply our scientific expertise in NK cell biology and therapeutic antibodies to a technology that has very promising pre-clinical potential. This a great example of how CDRD is partnering with Canadian life sciences companies to advance promising discoveries and transform them into validated investments and improved health outcomes. By combining our expertise and specialized infrastructure, we aim to provide critical data to advance Novelogics technology and help bring new therapeutic treatments to market.
It is anticipated that a pre-clinical candidate antibody will be selected in 2017, and that further clinical development activities will follow.
