In collaboration with Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Topotarget currently focuses on the development in pivotal studies of its lead drug candidate, belinostat, which has demonstrated a clear anti neoplastic effect in both hematological malignancies and solid tumors. Belinostat can be used in combination with full doses of chemotherapy, and is currently in a pivotal trial within PTCL (peripheral T-cell lymphoma) and phase II in cancer of unknown primary (CUP). Topotarget's key cancer drugs target HDAC, NAD+, mTOR, Fas ligand and topoisomerase II. Savene®/Totect® is the first product on the market from Topotarget's drug discovery technology. Totect® is marketed by the company's own sales specialists in the US. The European rights to, Savene®, were divested in March 2010 as a consequence of the focus to develop and commercialise belinostat. For more information, please refer to www.topotarget.com.
