WELCOME TO ADCURE BIO

AdCure Bio is a pre-clinical stage cancer viro-immuno-therapy company, developing potent and safe immuno-stimulatory oncolytic viruses for therapy of solid tumors.


AdCure Bio is committed to bring patients new therapies for late-stage and disseminated metastatic cancers, refractory to immunotherapy, chemotherapy and other existing treatment modalities.

THE DIFFERENCE IN ADCURE BIO TECHNOLOGY

Our proprietary platform adenovirus configuration is engineered to safely reach and destroy cancer cells and stimulate anti-tumor immunity within non-resectable and metastatic tumors after intravenous virus administration.

Unmet need for novel Therapeutics to cure cancer

Cancer figures among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with approximately 14 million new cases and 9.6 million cancer related deaths in 2018.  

The total annual economic cost of cancer in 2010 was estimated at approximately US$ 1.16 trillion.  Unfortunately, the number of new cancer cases is expected to rise by about 70% over the next 2 decades*.


Oncolytic virotherapy is a new modality for therapy of hematologic and solid cancers. As of 2018, oncolytic viruses are being evaluated in 112 clinical trials as novel anti-cancer therapeutics**.

AdCure clinical program


AdCure Bio's clinical development program is focused on developing new viruses that can efficiently reach disseminated cancer cells via intravascular virus delivery.


Currently, our main focus is on lung cancer, the deadliest cancer type in the US, Europe, and Asia. The American Cancer Society estimates that in the US in 2019,  there will be  205,335  new cases and  128,403  deaths due to the non-small cell lung cancer, the most prevalent lung cancer type. 

AdCure Bio's lead products: AVID-212 and AVID-388

The key technology platform of AdCure Bio is based on oncolytic adenovirus, a common cold virus, engineered to selectively infect and kill tumor cells and stimulate the patient's immune system to eliminate cancer cells from the body.


AdCure Bio’s one-of-a-kind Artificial Vectors for Intravascular Delivery - AVID platform - is ideal for simple intravascular administration because of its safety and unique property of escaping liver sequestration. These features make it suitable for the treatment of cancer patients with disseminated metastatic disease and non-resectable tumors, for whom no effective therapy is currently available.



  

Based on the available variants of individual AVID capsid proteins, a panel of immunologically distinct oncolytic AVID variants can be assembled for repeated rounds of therapy to improve anti-tumor efficacy and extend survival again and again.
