The goal - reduce mortality from colon cancer

1.1 million diagnosed with colon cancer yearly

The fourth most common form of cancer

5-year survival for non-

metastatic cancer is 71%

About 90 % of deaths

are due to metastases

Five-year survival for

metastatic cancer is 14%

Low WNT5A correlates with disease progression in colon cancer

Patients with high WNT5A expression had longer cumulative survival*

Restoring WNT5A functions is thought to benefit colon cancer patients

*Dejmek et al. Cancer Res 2005; 65: (20), 2005

Unfortunately, it is not possible to administer WNT5A as a drug due to the complex molecular structure that prevents it from reaching the cancer cells.

Our solution

Foxy-5

A smaller molecule that

mimics WNT5A and reaches cancer cells.

Development

Phase 2 study initiated but paused after promising unexpected findings

Initial Phase 2 study (NeoFox)

127 newly diagnosed patients with stage II/III colon cancer included.

Ad hoc observations based on 110

patients showed very promising and unexpectedly fast effects.
