Anti-Sortilin treatment – Making a difference for cancer patients

With this new therapy, patients will achieve a reduced recurrence and spreading of cancer and increased survival.

We are developing sortilin antagonistic small molecules, which can reduce the activity and expansion of treatment resistant cancer stem cells which are the leading cause for recurrent and metastatic cancer.

Our mission

Sortina Pharma´s mission is to develop an effective first in class oral pharmacotherapy for cancer patients with or at risk of having recurrent and metastatic cancer. With this new therapy, patients will achieve a reduced recurrence and spreading of cancer and increased survival.

Our drug is designed to be used as an oral add-on to the standard of care for optimal treatment. By targeting cancer stem cells in combination with standard therapy, we can achieve a more comprehensive cancer treatment, leading to improved quality of life and ultimately to increased survival.

  • Anti-Sortilin oral therapy as add-on today´s standard of care for optimal treatment
  • Eradicate cancer stem cells
  • Target cancer patients with high levels of Sortilin (Breast Cancer, Glioblastoma, Melanoma, Colon Cancer and Pancreatic Cancer)
