Curasight taps into a rapidly growing market
With aging populations, increased number of cancers, wider use of nuclear medicine and introductions of new radiopharmaceuticals around the world as growth factors, the market growth expectations are from about $5.9 Billion in 2019 to around $26 Billion in 2030.
Imaging (diagnostic purpose):
expecting a market of €195 M a year
Therapy:
expecting a market of around €5.1 B a year
Imaging (diagnostic purpose):
expecting a market of €1 B a year
This is why Curasight is pursuing the development of the uPAR Diagnostics and Therapy – and when combined known as Theranostics technology, where the diagnostics part is used for planning therapy.
Curasight’s next 5 years’ strategy
In October 2020, Curasight raised DKK 47 million for financing a phase III PET imaging study in brain cancer, and the development of the therapeutic uTREAT® to prepare for clinical trials on brain cancer.
With issued patents in both Europe, the US, Canada and Japan, Curasight has a very strong intellectual property position. According to the Board's assessments, there is currently no other early-stage biotech company in the field of PET tracer development that has their technology tested in a broader portfolio of clinical trials in humans (investigator-initiated) and across several cancer types.
”There is really an unmet need here to improve the therapy and diagnostics of these patients, and this is the very reason why we are pursuing this area.”
A strong and progressive pipeline
- Broad clinical testing in many cancer indication (investigator-initiated phase II clinical trials) of uTRACE® – so far more than 400 patients have been scanned
- Protocols for phase III pivotal uTRACE® study in brain cancer will is planned for submission in 2022
Be part of funding the journey to the cancer treatment of tomorrow
Based on promising results, Curasight’s Board and management projects that uTRACE® and uTREAT® could become game-changing technology in the management of cancer patients. Curasight raises funds to further advance and commercialize the combined diagnostics and therapy technology – uPAR Theranostics – for improved diagnosis and treatment across several forms of cancer.
