CNS Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CNSP) recently announced that its global clinical trial for a potentially pivotal brain cancer treatment will expand patient eligibility following an amendment to its protocol for the study. “CNS has been enrolling patients in its phase II clinical trial for novel drug candidate Berubicin, which has shown promise in fighting the aggressive brain cancer glioblastoma (‘GBM’),” explains a recent article. “The trial will compare Berubicin’s performance to the standard of care chemotherapy agent Lomustine, aiming to establish that Berubicin is at least as effective as Lomustine and potentially better because of Berubicin’s reported capacity to cross the blood-brain barrier to attack tumors directly. Crossing the blood-brain barrier gives Berubicin novel status because other anthracycline chemotherapy agents have thus far been unable to accomplish that feat, resulting in an average life expectancy of just over a year for GBM patients once they are diagnosed with the nearly always fatal illness. The ultimate goal of the clinical trial is to establish potential improvements in overall survivability for the patients using Berubicin.”

About CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc.
CNS Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of anti-cancer drug candidates for the treatment of primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system. The company’s lead drug candidate, Berubicin, is a novel anthracycline and the first anthracycline to appear to cross the blood-brain barrier. Berubicin is currently in development for the treatment of a number of serious brain and CNS oncology indications including glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer. Additionally, the company is advancing the development of its WP1244 drug technology portfolio, which utilizes anthracycline and distamycin-based scaffolds to create small molecule agents and is believed to be 500x more potent than daunorubicin in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. Preclinical studies of WP1244 demonstrated high uptake in the brain with antitumor activity. CNS Pharmaceuticals is evaluating the use of WP1244 in the treatment of brain cancers, pancreatic, ovarian, and lymphomas. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.CNSPharma.com.
