Audeo Oncology (Audeo Oncology) Minority Interest : $0.00 Mil (As of Sep. 2012)

Audeo Oncology, Inc was incorporated in Delaware in June 2012. It is a late stage biopharmaceutical company utilizing its Hyaluronic Acid Chemotransport Technology, or HyACT, to target cancer drugs preferentially to tumor cells to enhance drug activity. HyACT is a flexible platform technology designed to increase the effectiveness of anti-cancer agents without increasing treatment toxicity. It seeks to reduce the risks related to drug development by using known anti-cancer drugs, and aim to enhance their commercial value by improving their effectiveness. The Company's lead HyACT product candidate, HA-Irinotecan, is currently in a pivotal Phase III clinical trial for metastatic colorectal cancer, or mCRC. HA-Irinotecan is also in an investigator-sponsored Phase II clinical trial for small cell lung cancer, or SCLC. It also has two other HyACT product candidates that have successfully completed Phase I clinical trials. In addition to its current clinical-stage product candidates, it aims to develop a pipeline of product candidates by exploiting its significant know-how in cancer stem cell biology and cancer metabolism combined with the Versatile Assembly on Stable Templates, or VAST, molecule drug discovery technology that it will in-license. The Company's lead product candidate is HyACT-targeted irinotecan, or HA-Irinotecan, for the treatment of mCRC. Irinotecan, which is marketed in major markets by Pfizer as Camptosar, is an off-patent chemotherapy drug widely used in the treatment of mCRC. Government authorities in the United States (including federal, state and local authorities) and in other countries extensively regulate the manufacture, research, clinical development, labeling, packaging, distribution, post-approval monitoring and reporting, advertising, promotion, export and import of pharmaceutical products, such as those it is developing.
