A 50% reduction in breast tumour volume size seen with Eirx lead molecule in
animal studies
'A reduction in tumour volume of 50% is seen by the National Cancer Institute in
America, and other leading authorities as being highly significant' said
Professor Tom Cotter, founder and CSO of EiRx. 'We are now in active
discussions with a developmental company to further develop this molecule and to
prepare it for a future phase 1 clinical trial.
Commenting on the results, Dr. Finbarr Murphy, Managing Director of operating
subsidiary EiRx Therapeutics Ltd, said: 'The efficacy and selectivity of the
molecule is very encouraging, and supports our approach of targeted apoptosis
therapy in the treatment of cancer to limit toxicity and side effects associated
with standard chemotherapy.
