SOR-C13, is a novel, short, synthetic peptide developed from the C-terminal region of soricidin, a proprietary 54 amino acid peptide, discovered by Soricimed Biopharma found in the saliva of the Northern Short-tailed Shrew. SOR-C13 binds with high affinity and selectivity - and disrupts the function of - TRPV6, a calcium channel over-expressed in solid tumor cancers. TRPV6 plays a central role in a biochemical cascade that results in the upregulation of an array of pro-cancerous genes. TRPV6 is considered to be an important target for novel anticancer therapy. SOR-C13 is the first highly specific TRPV6 inhibitor to be identified and to be taken into clinical development. SOR-C13 was effective in inhibition of tumors in animal xenograft models of human ovarian and breast cancer. The ongoing phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of SOR-C13 in treating patients with solid tumors. The FDA has awarded orphan drug status to SOR-C13 for the treatment of ovarian cancer and for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

IVA-337 (LANIFIBRANOR), an indole sulfonamide derivative, is a pan peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) agonist. It is under investigation in Phase 2 clinical trials for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and type 2 diabetes.

Aldose reductase-IN-1 is an inhibitor of aldose reductase

Nerofe, the flagship compound of Immune System Key Ltd, is a 14 amino acid modifed form of a novel human hormone-peptide, which was found to be a native ligand of the ST2 receptor and plays a pivotal role in immune system response. Nerofe is a derivative of the human hormone-peptide Tumor-Cells Apoptosis Factor (TCApF). TCApF binds to the T1/ST2 receptor and activates caspases 8, 9 and 3 mediated apoptosis, together with activation of JNKinase and p38 MAPKinase. Application of TCApF to cells induced apoptosis in acute myeloid leukemia proliferating cells (U937 premeyloid cells), in human breast carcinoma (MCF7), human glioblastoma, human neuroblastoma, human prostate cancer and human lung cancer proliferating cells. In contrast, TCApF was unable to induce apoptosis in non-proliferating cells. The selectivity of TCApF-induced apoptosis is related to the level of T1/ST2 receptor expression. Nerofe was granted by the FDA with orphan drug status for AML treatment and currently is in phase IIa development stage. Immune System Key Ltd holds 3 worldwide patents on the molecule and applications.
