OUR TECHNOLOGY
Targeting the Wiskott-Aldrich-Syndrome Protein
BIMINI’s approach is based on proprietary technology that targets the Wiskott-Aldrich-Syndrome Protein (WASp), an actin nucleation related protein expressed exclusively in hematopoietic cells. WASP modulation has shown to deliver a potent anti-cancer effect.
We have a proprietary portfolio of small molecule WASP modulators (agonists and antagonists), including a proprietory WASP agonist (BM-011 – licensed from the Institute of Oncology Research in Switzerland) that is currently in the pre-clinical stage and is demonstrating potent activity in various lymphomas.
