From cancer to differentiated cell

Learn more about our unprecedented approach,
from problem to our solution.

Glioblastoma

is the most common and aggressive malignant primary brain tumour.

40,000 new cases per year globally

GBM tumours are difficult to treat

Considered incurable

Nearly 100% of patients experience disease relapse after initial treatment

Current standard of care

is of limited benefit and prognosis is poor

Surgery, Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy

There are 4 approved therapies which have had minimal impact on survival – TMZ the only therapy to demonstrate OS benefit (2.5 months)

Average survival after diagnosis is 15 months

Our solution: differentiation therapy

Paradigm shift in treating brain cancer

Differentiation therapy turns cancer stem cells into “normal”, mature brain cells, thereby rendering them unable to multiply and incapable of perpetuating the tumor

A platform technology leveraging neurobiology of brain stem cells to discover biological drugs that specifically tackle tumor cells, particularly aggressive cancer stem cells.
