CNS Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CNSP), a biopharmaceutical company whose lead drug candidate Berubicin has yielded promising results in the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), has made equally significant strides with its second drug candidate, WP1244. Still currently in development, preclinical work for WP1244 is expected to continue during 2021 and 2022. “WP1244 is a DNA-binding agent believed to be 500-times more potent than daunorubicin in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation,” reads a recent article. “The current target indication for WP1244 includes brain cancers, pancreatic cancers, ovarian cancers and lymphoma. Preclinical studies show high uptake in the brain with antitumor activity.” On the other hand, Berubicin, “a novel anthracycline that is the first anthracycline to cross the blood-brain barrier and is designed to concentrate in tumorous tissue within the brain, is currently entering a potentially pivotal Phase 2 study for GBM.”
