BullFrog AI Partners with the Sage Group to Explore JV Opportunities to Advance its Oncology Assets
BullFrog’s oncology assets have been acquired through exclusive licenses with Johns Hopkins University (JHU) and include a Phase 2 ready asset and a preclinical prodrug asset
BullFrog AI Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:BFRG; BFRGW)
("BullFrog AI" or the "Company"), a digital technology
company using machine learning to usher in a new era of precision medicine,
today announced a strategic partnership with the Sage Group, a leader in the provision of
strategic and transactional advice to healthcare and life science companies in
the pharmaceutical, diagnostics, medical device, biotech, regenerative
medicine, and cell and gene therapy fields.
The engagement will focus on
seeking joint venture (JV) opportunities to further advance BullFrog AI’s Phase
2 ready asset targeting glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, as
well as the Company’s preclinical prodrug asset. The partnership will give
BullFrog AI access to the Sage Group’s clinical and regulatory expertise,
capital resources, and network of contacts, including innovators and large
pharma.
"Glioblastoma is one of the
deadliest forms of cancer, with a five-year survival rate of less than seven
percent,” said BullFrog AI’s founder and CEO, Vin Singh. “With the Sage Group’s
support, we look forward to identifying the right partner to help us advance
clinical development of our oncology programs globally in an effort to bring a
revolutionary new treatment option to glioblastoma patients.”
The market for glioblastoma
treatment is expected to surpass $10 billion by 2030, up from $5.1 billion in
2020, according to a 2022 analysis by a Vision Research Report. BullFrog AI has
previously announced the grant of exclusive licenses from JHU for a novel
formulation of mebendazole that has been evaluated in two clinical trials for
glioblastoma, and for a novel prodrug of mebendazole with improved
bioavailability.
