CNS Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CNSP) is a biopharmaceutical innovator staking out its own position within the competitive field of research, having already progressed to human trials evaluating its novel glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”) solution, known as Berubicin (or WP744). “Berubicin is a patented doxorubicin (‘Dox’) analog – an anthracycline chemotherapy agent novel in its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier to target tumors directly. Tested against Dox in cancer cells, Berubicin showed a greater capacity to destroy or damage the cancers. In models evaluating intracranial gliomas, Berubicin showed a greater capacity to prolong life than temozolomide, another standard of care for GBM,” a recent article reads. “Other anthracyclines have been limited in their ability to fight brain cancers by their inability to cross the blood-brain barrier, but Berubicin’s unique capacity potentially led to significant outcomes in its earliest safety trial conducted by the drug’s initial developer, Reata Pharmaceuticals. In that small-scale phase I clinical trial in 2006, one of the two dozen evaluated patients emerged cancer-free and has remained so over the subsequent years up to today. Nearly half of the trial’s other patients experienced a statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit of stable disease or better.”
