Cancer immunotherapy offers an attractive therapeutic addition, delivering treatment of high specificity, low toxicity and prolonged activity. In this Drug Pipeline Update BioSeeker brings together the fields of antibodies, vaccines, and immunostimulators in oncology drug development into one source.

There are today 473 (421) companies plus partners developing 978 (783) cancer immunotherapy drugs in 1959 (1573) developmental projects in cancer. In addition, there are 16 (12) suspended drugs and the accumulated number of ceased drugs over the last years amount to another 333 (334) drugs. Immunotherapy In Oncology Drug Pipeline Update lists all drugs and gives you a progress analysis on each one of them. Identified drugs are linked to 336 (315) different targets. These targets are further categorized on in the software application by 56 (54) classifications of molecular function and with pathway referrals to BioCarta, KEGG and NetPath. Figures in brackets are comparative data from last year.

Find and sort drugs by twelve different parameters plus free text search field. Our dynamic report generator lets you with ease and speed generate html reports directly in your web browser, whether it is a single drug profile or an entire search you want have a report of.
