Many viruses have evolved, over billions of years, to do exactly what is needed to create effective cancer therapies: kill tumor cells but not normal cells. Neotropix works to harness viruses' natural infectious and replicative properties to treat cancer and other diseases that are resistant to available therapeutic methods.

Neotropix began a Phase IA-II Clinical Trial on our first cancer drug candidate in May, 2006.

We urge you to explore Neotropix and learn about our work as a leading biotechnology company in the emerging field of virotherapy.

Neotropix is in the forefront of research and treatment in specific areas such as SCLC, NSCLC, (including large cell lung cancer), carcinoid, neuoendocrine, rhabdomyosarcoma, neuroblastoma, retinoblastoma, medulloblastoma, rhabdoid, glioblastoma and wilms.
