Company Summary
NuvOx’s drug, NanO2, increases tissue oxygenation. We are in Phase IIB clinical trials to treat brain tumors as a radiosensitizer funded by the NCI. Brain tumors are hypoxic and NanO2 improves response to RT. The market potential in cancer can be expanded to $17 billion by treating other tumor types. We have positive Phase IIa data in stoke and the NIHR in the UK is funding a 150 subject stroke trial. BARDA is funding a Phase Ib trial in ARDS.
