Oncolytics Biotech Inc T.ONC

Alternate Symbol(s):  ONCY

Oncolytics Biotech Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company. The Company is focused on developing pelareorep, an intravenously delivered immunotherapeutic agent that activates the innate and adaptive immune systems and weakens tumor defense mechanisms. This compound induces anti-cancer immune responses and promotes an inflamed tumor phenotype turning cold tumors hot through innate and adaptive immune responses to treat a variety of cancers. This improves the ability of the immune system to fight cancer, making tumors more susceptible to a broad range of oncology treatments. The Company’s primary focus is to advance its programs in hormone receptor-positive / human epidermal growth factor 2- negative (HR+/HER2-) metastatic breast cancer and advanced/metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to registration-enabling clinical studies. In addition, it is exploring opportunities for registrational programs in other gastrointestinal cancers through its GOBLET platform study.

Frustration!

Frustration!I've just heard about another aquaintance who has died from an especially aggressive cancer. This is the second one this year. These two women were gone in a matter of months.

When the hell is someone going to get off their duffs and start getting these developing treatments, which have proved to be safe, out of trials and into the hands of treatment physicians.

In the past 50 years there has been hundreds of BILLIONS of dollars poured into the cancer industry and we still don't have a definitive treatment for this scourge. We put a man on the moon for a fraction of the cost. It almost makes one convinced an effective treatment is NOT wanted for fear of the loss of large numbers of luctrative jobs.
