Our therapeutic research lines currently concentrate in two classes of medicaments: 

 

Immunomodulators ( P-MAPA) and chemotherapeuticals ( Violacein).

 

Immunomodulators

 

P-MAPA : A biological response modifier, produced by fermentation from A.oryzae under development by Farmabrasilis. 

 

 Antiviral effects in vivo :

 

 Herpes virus ( HSV and VZV), Human papiloma virus (HPV), Punta toro virus (PTV), Parvovirus and Canine distemper virus.

 

 Antimicrobial effects in vivo :

 

Listeria monocytogenes, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Plasmodium sp. and Leishmania sp.

 

 Antitumoral effects in vivo :

 

Carcinoma de Walker 256, Lewis lung carcinoma (3LL), Renal carcinoma (RENCA), Mammary carcinoma, Plasmacitoma, Lymphosarcoma-180, Ehrlich ascitic tumor (EAT), non-muscle invasive urinary blader cancer, pancreatic cancer and ovarian carcinoma.

 

 Antimetastatic properties in vivo : 

 

Renal carcinoma (RENCA)

 

Toxicity and safety in vitro and in vivo :

 

In contrast with most if not all other immunomodulators, it has an ample safety margin for clinical use, since no significant side effects have been observed in any of the experimental models tested.

 

Current stage of development :

 

Preclinical development: completed

 

Clinical trials: in progress

 

Regulatory : FDA  application underway
