CNS Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CNSP), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system, has set sights on an encouraging future for glioblastoma patients with its upcoming Phase 2 trial of Berubicin. The article detailing this groundbreaking news quoted the company’s CEO John Climaco as saying, “Anthracyclines as a class of chemotherapy have been used for over 60 years to treat a variety of cancers… However, historically, anthracyclines have never been used to treat primary or metastatic brain cancers because scientists could not demonstrate that anthracyclines were able to cross the blood-brain barrier and achieve significant levels of activity in the brain. Berubicin may change that history because it is the first anthracycline that, based on limited clinical data, appears to cross the blood-brain barrier and achieve drug levels critical for efficacy against central nervous system malignancies.” This is welcome news for glioblastoma patients, given that they “have a median survival rate of 14.6 months from the date of the malignancy’s diagnosis.” Berubicin was the focus of another company’s Phase 1 testing, conducted in 2006 with 25 participants. “11 of them (44%) achieved ‘statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit,’ and one of them continued to survive completely cancer-free as of last February 20.”
