Delphia Therapeutics Launches to Pioneer a New Field of Cancer Medicines based on Activation Lethality platform

“Despite dramatic advances in the understanding and drugging of key driver mutations and oncogenic pathways, cancer remains a tremendous global health challenge, as tumors rapidly develop resistance to targeted therapy in the vast majority of patients,” said Kevin Marks, Ph.D., co-founder, president and CEO of Delphia. “Our activation lethality platform offers the potential for new cancer medicines that are effective on their own while also combating the emergence of resistance to classic targeted therapies. These medicines hold the potential to address significant cancer patient populations and may mark a disruptive paradigm shift in how cancer is treated, leading to more sustained disease control and longer patient survival. We are thrilled to launch Delphia to lead this exciting new area of cancer biology.”
