Copenhagen, June 7, 2023 - Curasight A/S ("Curasight" or "the Company" – TICKER: CURAS) is pleased to announce preclinical data demonstrating the effectiveness of uTREAT® in treating aggressive brain cancer (glioblastoma). The results from the study validate Curasight's strategic focus on developing uTREAT® as a viable treatment option for patients with aggressive brain cancer.
Data from the study showed that uTREAT®, when administered to a preclinical model of human aggressive brain cancer, effectively inhibited tumor growth. Animals receiving uTREAT® survived longer compared to animals not treated with uTREAT®. These data demonstrates the potential for uTREAT® to be used as a radioligand therapy for the treatment of aggressive brain cancer and supports further development for this treatment.
"We are extremely encouraged by these results, which further affirm our commitment to advancing our theranostic platform, comprising uTRACE® and uTREAT®, for evaluation in patients with aggressive brain cancer. The urgent need to enhance therapeutic outcomes in this challenging disease drives our strategic pursuit," commented Ulrich Krasilnikoff, CEO of Curasight.
