Bold Therapeutics

Bold Therapeutics, based in Vancouver, British Columbia, is a clinical-stage oncology company focused on developing BOLD-100, a ruthenium-based small molecule therapeutic, that appears to significantly enhance the activity of a wide range of other anti-cancer therapies by disabling a critical and previously untargeted cancer resistance, survival and proliferation pathway. Based on compelling preclinical and early clinical results, Bold Therapeutics is focusing its development efforts on some of the most challenging cancer indications where existing therapies are largely ineffective, resulting in a significant unmet medical need.
