Kalos Therapeutics is a pioneering biotech company developing a platform of drugs containing multiple arrays of natriuretic peptide which have demonstrated a broad spectrum of anti-tumor activity with negligible or no known adverse effects. In a Pre-IND Study using the parent drug involving a total of eighty-eight patients, including 22 healthy patients, the study demonstrated safety and therapeutic efficacy. Kalos' leading drug candidate, KTH 222, regulates cell growth via inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Kalos is changing the care paradigm for treating cancer patients as KTH 222 can function as a lead therapy or used in combination with existing therapies to improve efficacy and reduce toxicity and mitigate or reverse resistance. Nearly 17 million patients are living with a cancer diagnosis without safe nontoxic maintenance therapy. Kalos' therapeutic solutions expect to help stabilize these patients, allowing them time to recover and improve their quality of life while holding their tumors in a sustained state of slowed growth or stasis. Kalos' vision is to treat dangerous and debilitating diseases while improving the quality of life for patients and their families.
