Notes for Editors
ValiRx Plc
ValiRx is a biotechnology oncology focussed company specialising
in developing novel treatments for cancer and associated
biomarkers. It aims to make a significant contribution in
"precision" medicine and science, namely to engineer a breakthrough
into human health and well-being, through the early detection of
cancer and its therapeutic intervention.
The Company's business model focuses on out-licensing
therapeutic candidates early in the development process. By aiming
for early-stage value creation, the company reduces risk
considerably while increasing the potential for realising value.
The group is already in licensing discussions with major players in
the oncology field.
ValiRx's two classes of drugs in development, which each have
the potential for meeting hitherto unmet medical needs by existing
methods, have worldwide patent filings and agreed commercial
rights. They originate or derive from Word class institutions, such
as Cancer Research UK and Imperial College.
Until recently, cancer treatments relied on non-specific agents,
such as chemotherapy. With the development of target-based agents,
primed to attack cancer cells only, less toxic and more effective
treatments are now possible. New drugs in this group-such as those
in ValiRx's pipeline-promise to greatly improve outcomes for cancer
patients.
The Company listed on the AIM market of the London Stock
Exchange in October 2006 and trades under the ticker symbol:
VAL.
