Cytorex Biosciences
↗Weston, Florida, USA
Cytorex Biosciences is a preclinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of a novel therapeutic platform called Cytoreg® ionic therapeutic technology. This platform utilizes a proprietary aqueous mixture of pharmacologically active ions and acid salts (including hydrofluoric, hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric, citric, and oxalic acids) to treat complex pathologies. The company's primary focus is oncology, specifically targeting high-grade brain tumors like Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) by leveraging the low molecular weight of its agents to cross the blood-brain barrier.
Beyond oncology, Cytorex is exploring the application of its ionic technology in treating diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), kidney stones, and pathogenic microorganisms (including viruses like SARS-CoV-2 and Ebola). The technology works by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells, increasing blood oxygenation, and regulating mitochondrial activity without disrupting normal blood pH or healthy tissues.
