RS Research Announces Poster Presentation at the ESMO TAT 2023 Congress
15 March 2023
RS Research, a clinical-stage biotechnology start-up developing smart nanomedicines for targeted chemotherapy, announced the acceptance of a poster presentation at the European Society for Medical Oncology Targeted Anticancer Therapies (ESMO TAT) 2023 Congress on 6-8 March in Paris – France, being known as “The Home of Phase I in Oncology”.
RS Research’s platform technology allows designing targeted drug candidates for different indications, which yields into development of the company’s own portfolio consisting of 5 drug candidates, as well as an important co-development potential. The nanocarriers introduce a versatile targeting capability and are suitable for loading a single or a combination of chemotherapeutic agents, with superior pharmacokinetic profiles while the targeting enables the drugs to accumulate in the tumor ensuring an enhanced therapeutic index and thus offering reduced toxicity profile.
RS-0139 is the lead candidate in Phase I clinical trial, aiming to deliver docetaxel specifically into integrin receptor expressing tumors such as NSCLC, breast, ovarian, prostate and pancreatic as well as head & neck carcinoma. RS Research Co-Founder and CSO Prof. Rana Sanyal, PhD and Medical Director Gülşah Nomak, MD presented the candidates’ promising preclinical data at ESMO TAT 2023.

RS Research (as of Q2 2024)
RS Research was founded by Prof. Rana Sanyal and Sena Nomak to take the necessary steps for bringing innovative therapies to patients, carrying out the research to clinic based on the proprietary drug delivery platforms Sagitta® Bir and Sagitta® Dui. Thanks to this technology, RS Research can increase effectiveness of chemotherapy and reduce side effects, provide patients with an optimal therapeutic index. RS Research raised 2 million Euros seed funding in 2017, followed by a 12 million USD Series-A investment round in 2021. The company developed 5 drug candidates designed based on Sagitta® platform technology addressing multiple indications in its pipeline. RS-0139’s ongoing Phase I clinical trial has advanced to the end of dose finding. Further details regarding the clinical trial are available at clinicaltrials.gov with the trial identifier NCT04261413. RS Research is manufacturing its clinical research products at its own GMP-licensed production facility with both synthesis and filling capability drugs.
