SOD mimetic investigational therapy for reduction of chemoradiotherapy-induced oral mucositis

An investigational small-molecule SOD mimetic evaluated in randomized clinical trials to reduce severe oral mucositis in patients receiving chemoradiotherapy for head and neck cancer; studied across Phase 1–3 trials.

SOD mimetic investigational therapy for combination with SBRT in NSCLC and pancreatic cancer

An investigational SOD mimetic being developed for use in combination with stereotactic body radiation therapy for indications including non‑small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer; referenced in regulatory and pipeline communications including orphan designation for pancreatic cancer.

GC4419

GC4711 is a selective small molecule dismutase mimetic being developed to increase the anti-cancer effect of radiation, specifically to augment the anti-cancer efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer and non-small cell lung cancer.

Avasopasem manganese

Avasopasem manganese is a drug under FDA priority review for the treatment of radiotherapy-induced severe oral mucositis (SOM) in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing standard-of-care treatment. It aims to reduce the incidence, severity, and duration of SOM and has shown potential to reduce cisplatin-induced chronic kidney disease.

Tilarginine

Tilarginine is L-NMMA (NG-monomethyl-L-arginine), a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor, administered IV over 2 hours, with Amlodipine pretreatment.


Services

Intake, evaluation, and case-by-case consideration of requests for pre‑approval access to investigational therapies submitted by licensed treating physicians; includes acknowledgement timelines and defined evaluation criteria.
