Description:

Founded in 2015, BioCanRx (Biotherapeutics for Cancer Treatment) is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to improve outcomes for cancer patients by accelerating the development of cost-effective and curative biotherapies. BioCanRx supports biotherapeutic development research through four research programs and a number of core facilities that are accessible to all members of the BioCanRx network.

This program will provide financial support for the clinical evaluation in Canada of novel biotherapeutic products and platforms that have been substantially developed in Canada. The program is focused on clinical trials using biotherapeutics, including but not limited to: oncolytic viruses, immune cell therapies, and therapeutic antibodies, either as mono-therapies or in combination. The required deliverables include clinical data required to evaluate the case for advancing the therapeutic into later-stage clinical development.
