About Serenex

Serenex is an integrated oncology-focused drug discovery and development company. Serenex's lead program, SNX-1012, a product for chemotherapy and radiation-induced oral mucositis in solid tumor patients, is scheduled to complete phase 2 clinical trials in early 2008. Oral mucositis, which represents a large and underserved market, frequently causes clinicians to interrupt therapy which directly leads to decreased rates of efficacy. Additionally, Serenex has a novel pre-clinical small molecule inhibitor of Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90), which is scheduled to begin clinical trials in April 2007. Hsp90 is a central protein responsible for chaperoning a large number of oncogenic proteins (such as Her2 and Raf) that are necessary to support cancer cell survival and growth. Serenex's pipeline is powered by a proprietary high throughput screening platform which enables the company to profile compounds, en masse, against thousands of important therapeutic and toxicity targets.
