Systems Oncology
[edit]Systems Oncology LLC is an Arizona-based biotechnology company that discoveries and develops cancer therapeutics. The company applies cognitive computing and multi-scalar systems modeling to mine massive data sets and uncover hidden therapeutic insights for cancer, and partners with academic institutes and pharmaceutical companies to accelerate development of cancer treatments [1].
In February 2017, Systems Oncology licensed in a patented drug compound from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Research Foundation [2,3]. The compound alters the VDR’s action selectively, and block the local inactivation of vitamin D around the tumor micro-environment, without interfering with the systemic calcium regulation needed for normal health. Current evidence shows the compound has safely and effectively suppressed tumors in animal models [4]. Systems Oncology plans to work with pharmaceutical partners to co-develop this new agent into a cancer therapy [5].
