The Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19)
ViroStatics can test activity in vitro of any material (drugs, biologics, disinfectants, devices) against SARS-CoV-2 and has the expertise to perform such activities and the capability to work in a BSL3 area as required to manipulate new coronavirus according to the US CDC guidelines.
COVID-19 is in everyone’s mind and heart. We assure you that we are putting all our forces into action to fight it. Help us identifying with our research as many drugs as possible to be made immediately available to our doctors. Help our search.
Developing Novel Compounds Targeting Cancers and Viruses
The Company has developed a robust pipeline of proprietary compounds to distinguish themselves from the competition through their unique kinase selectivity, efficacy and safety profiles.
Consistent with its well defined mechanism of action, ViroStatics’ lead compound has a good toxicity profile while exerting potent activity in preclinical models against most aggressive cancers with high unmet need such as pancreatic cancer, highly malignant lymphoma and acute leukemia, lung cancer and breast cancer.
