3. Innovation project overview
The aim of the project is to become a global pharmaceutical company which
develops and bring to the Russian and international markets novel anti-cancer
medicines
Curaxins – small molecules with potentially wide spectrum of therapeutic use as pharmaceuticals
which showed efficacy against various malignant tumors, autoimmune diseases, also demonstrated anti-
inflammatory activity
Advances technologies developed by American Company Cleveland Biolabs, Inc.
Existing curaxins are represented by two classes of chemical compounds:
―Based on aminoacridine structure (innovative by their use)
―Based on carbazole structure (innovative by chemical class of molecules)
Curaxin’s uniqueness is based on their ability to repair the abnormal activity of three key signaling
pathways simultaneously in tumor cells, providing selective anti-tumor activity (through inhibition of
chromatin protein complex FACT)
Highly potent and selective pharmaceuticals against several types of malignant tumors
Curaxins potentially could also be developed into novel pharmaceuticals against some autoimmune
diseases and inflammatory conditions
4. Product and (or) technology description
The ultimate goal of the Project is the use of breakthough biomedical technologies of the Clevеland Biolabs, Inc.
for development and launch on the Russian markets (5 years) and USA (7 years) of fundamentally novel effecient
anticancer medicines with the unique effect mechanism.
Curaxins are synthetic small molecules with previously unknown properties. Their structure is patentable.
Animal tests demonstrated favorable toxicological and pharmacological characteristics of curaxins.
Their anti-tumor activity was proven by preclinical studies of mouse models and of human tumor xenograft
models performed in Russian Federation and in the USA.
Structural analysis resulted in establishing an algorithm predicting with high degree of accuracy the functionality
of Curaxin-like molecules. These data show that the structure of DNA is not damaged by curaxins.
Curaxin
Active compounds Doxorubicin
No DNA damage by Curaxins
Inactive compounds DNA binding
5. Technical description of the product
As transforming to malignant tumors cancer cells undergo changes in
the main signaling cascades responsible for survival. Among cascades
the functioning of which is disturbed almost in all cells of malignant
tumors, the most significant is the cascade of tumor suppress p53
(depressed), NF-κB and heat shock proteins cascades (activated). Live tumor cell Dead tumor cell
Curaxins
Curaxins enable to activate p53 cascade and simultaneously suppress
NF-κB and HSF-1 cascades(which induce heat shock cascade). High activator Drugs exist
frequency of deregulation of those cascades in different oncological
diseases suggests that significant proportion of tumors are treatable inhibitor Drugs exist
by combinational Curaxins. Drugs under development
inhibitor but not on the market yet

7. Method of commercialization and competitive
advantages, reasons for the interest of consumers in
the product and (or) technology
• Competitive advantages of the product:
―Curaxin’s property to target several key pathways simultaneously in cancer cells that decreases the potency of
tumor cells to form drug resistance and increases anti-tumor efficacy (it was proven experimentally).
―As opposed to conventional anti-cancer drugs, curaxins combine high efficacy and safety
―As opposed to conventional anti-cancer drugs, curaxins do not induce DNA damage
Market of state procurement (Russia)
Commercialization
Medical insurance market (USA)
• Reasons for the interest of consumers in the product:
―Innovative medicines against several types of cancer including orphan disease – nephroma and auto-immune
disease – systemic lupus erythematosus; that gives specific social status to the developed medicines
―The novel class of medicines that fundamentally differ by effect mechanism and efficiency from the current and
developing by other companies
