Big pharmas are looking for a platform. We have one. Given their size and resources, big pharmas are more looking for a platform, than just a molecule.
So lets see what we have:
- we now have one in oncology (with different indications advanced at different stages).
- we now have one in the making for the anti-virus market, with a credible partner (PHAC-NML).
- we have a PDC portfolio (TLD-1433, Rutherrin and other PDCs (Os, etc ...)) to be used by those platforms.
So a big pharma,
- can have the vision and has the resources to already take the steps to advance TLD-1433 in these others niches within the bladder cancer market.
- can decide to aim at 3-4 other oncology indications that TLD documented pre-clinically years ago (head & neck (Sept. 17, 2017), esophageal (Oct. 9, 2018), etc) with TLD-1433, Rutherrin and other PDCs (Os, etc ...).
- can become a Client of our Theralase Cancer Center that has, as an objective, to develop and commercialize PDCs to bring them to bedside and mainstream.
So big pharmas would pay to advance those new trial indications on many fronts, conditional to certain clinical trial milestones, just like Pfizer did it with BioNTech.
So now would be a perfect timing for them to step in.
I don't think a big Pharma would wait for Breakthrough designation in NMIBC to do a move. They now have enough data and they have enough expertise to assess our anti-cancer technology (ACT) now to easily propose a jv deal with milestones and trial result conditions.
That could explain the creation of the Theralase Research Center so our pipeline of PDCs can feed a big pharma's intentions. TLT would have done all the heavy lifting with the NMIBC indication (TLD-1433), NSCLC (preclinical with Rutherrin) and a proof-of-concept with the anti-virus platform (COVID-19) with PHAC-NML. That would legitimately set the table for a big pharma to step in a bit before the NMIBC Breakthrough designation and would target other indications not yet engaged by TLT (NMIBC, NSCLC, COVID-19) because big pharmas are competing one against each others, one has to move faster than the others if it wants to reap the big rewards.
