Experience
Head of Project Management
D3 (Drug Discovery and Development), BMSI
As
a Project Manager and biomarker expert in D3 we are currently doing the
pre-clinical development of an anti-neoplastic small molecule (wnt
signaling inhibitor) for solid tumors targeting to obtain an IND by
Sept. 2014.
We have successfully completed the a Phase I, first-in man, healthy volunteer, multi-center study testing a VLP-vaccine.
Our small- molecule kinase inhibitors for the treatment of a subset of chronic myeloid leukemia patients are just entering preclinical development. Furthermore D3 is in the process of in-licensing two exciting first-in class oncology compounds.
In the non-oncology area we are involved in the preclinical development of MSC exosomes for small indications for PoC.
