Precirix is a private, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company founded in 2014 as a spin-off from the University of Brussels. Precirix is dedicated to extending and improving the lives of cancer patients by designing and developing novel radiopharmaceuticals, using camelid-derived single-domain antibodies (sdAb) labeled with radioisotopes.
The company’s lead product, CAM-H2, is being evaluated in a Phase I/II trial targeting metastatic HER2-positive cancer. Patients with tumors that overexpress HER2 can benefit from effective targeted treatments today yet have a poor prognosis when the cancer spreads. CAM-H2 aims to effectively irradiate cancer lesions while sparing healthy tissue, based on its unique technology platform that leverages the favorable tissue distribution of sdAbs.
The company’s technology platform also allows for a theranostic approach, using the same molecule for patient selection (imaging) and therapy. In addition to CAM-H2, the company has two product candidates in preclinical stage and is further broadening its platform through research on isotopes, linker technology and combination therapies.
