GlyTherix’s radiotherapy approach combines Lu-177 with an antibody targeting Glypican-1, a protein found in aggressive cancers, to deliver localized radiation while sparing healthy tissue.
Glypican-1 is an attractive tumor target that occurs in several aggressive and invasive cancers including prostate, pancreatic, bladder, lung, glioblastoma, esophageal and ovarian cancer. GlyTherix plans to use 177Lu-DOTAMiltuximab in its planned Australian Phase Ib in 2025, followed by US Phase II trials in 2026.
