About our project

The problem we solve: Lung cancer is one of the most lethal cancer types in the world. According to the reported statistics non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) occurs in more than 80% of all diagnosed lung cancer patients. Although, already some common therapies are used for this cancer type like: surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the severe drawbacks make scientists to investigate new methodologies via utilization of nanotechnology in order to achieve more beneficial-cost effective treatments with lower risks and the least possible side effects. Although some clinical works have done in this scope but since nanotechnology is a recent developed science, there are so many unclear and unanswered vague thus, further investigation must be done to overcome these issues.

About our solution: The main goal of this project is to introduce the best inhalable complex of the cyclodextrin (CD) as nanocarrier and Resveratrol as an effective drug for treatment of NSCLC. Various factors need to be considered for improving the smart nanosystem as a targeted drug delivery system. We aim for delivering Resveratrol which is well-known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This drug potentially can be useful for cancer treatment via using biocompatible cyclodextrin carrier functionalized with appropriate targeting agents. When this nanosystem reaches to the cancerous cell, the drug is going to be resealed due to the pH sensitive property of the cyclodextrin. Hereby, we are focused to introduce the best smart nanosystem for NSCLC treatment based on these compounds.

We did deep basic researches about cyclodextrins and nanocarrier systems for lung cancer treatment and also Resveratrol as a drug in particular. The technology behind this project has been developed and advanced over the recent decades. We have identified a potential drug that effectively enhanced antitumor activity in mice. There are some preclinical and clinical researches about this scope, especially, one recent research conducted in USA, studied on an inhalable form of resveratrol-cyclodextrin complex for NSCLC treatment. We tend to develop the smart complex of cyclodextrin and resveratrol by more effective functional agents to make it a practical drug for NSCLC treatment. Firstly, in our project, we will do some simulation studies to find the best proposed complexes and later introduce them to in vitro and in vivo studies. In the final stage, the best effective compound as a candidate drug is going to get approval from FDA and investigate for further clinical studies.

How We Help Patients

There are challenging issues make us to propose this project, as lung cancer is known to be one of the most deadly type of cancer in the world, and on the other hand, COVID-19 pandemic. Reported statistics is representing the number of people are struggling with lung cancer are currently in more danger of COVID-19. We are focused to find a treatment that will show desired effects for the treatment of lung cancer.

Patients with cancer, lung cancer in particular, are really hurt with the surgical and chemotherapy methods. This category of people need more support from COVID-19 too. It is time to reduce their pain and make life better for them with the new appropriate drug(s).

How We Help Physicians

Treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a crucial problem in medicine. On the other hand with this COVID-19 pandemic the lung cancer patients are in more danger. It is already known that drawbacks of surgery and chemotherapy make the scientists and physicians to find better drugs and methods. Methods which are safer with easier access, lead a better treatment that is useful for both patients and treatment staff like physicians, nurses and etc. In this project we are trying to find an inhalable drug system with good functionality for lung cancer treatment. It would be our honor to be provided by your experience, advices and financial helps. Different types of providers can participate in this project. Since our medical project needs some experimental equipment at first and after achieving good results from in vitro studies, we need to proceed to do clinical procedures in laboratories and hospitals. So, we can gather together and make a good progress in producing useful drugs for cancer treating. In this procedure we can publish our data as articles in our journal, make some patents, and if our clinical studies provide good results, we are able to exploit the results for entering the product to the market. Our providers can make good benefits and we will share our progress with whom will participate in this project. Based on the previous results in the literature, we hope to make progress in cancer treatment. So let’s make it. It will worth it.

How We Help Hospitals

With the help of our proposed project, we can provide hospitals with more effective inhalable drug for lung cancer treatment.

If our pre-clinical and clinical processes make satisfactory results, it is not a dream to produce a more effective drug that have lower drawbacks in comparison with other treatment methods that are being used  currently for lung cancer.

How We Help Partners

All of our partners can actively participate in our big project according to their abilities. We can coordinate with scientists, physicians, hospitals, laboratories, universities and of course every person or organization which involves in the field of medicine. We are welcoming individuals who are passionate about helping people to live better and finding effective drugs for patients struggling with cancer. We can have different kinds of relationships with our partners as they can help us to run this project.

Innovation Details

Intellectual Property Summary

We plan to be the sole possessors of the intellectual property until the technology is proven to be effective through our research. After that we are supposed to publish the patent and may welcome other partners to fund and implement our research for exploitation and industrialization.

Clinical Information

Our specific intended complexes did not entered clinical steps, yet as for the efficacy of our nanocarrier and drug there are clinical evidences in the literature. In fact, there are some pre-clinical and clinical research works about enhanced efficiency of cyclodextrin loaded with resveratrol in comparison with basic resveratrol. The research, suggested the increased antiviral, antitumor, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of resveratrol.

Regulatory Status

Drug: Resveratrol as drug has not FDA-approval for any indications yet, but it is used as dietary supplements in the market.

Carrier: Native CDs are being ‘Generally Regarded as Safe’ by the FDA. The FDA lists some derivatives of Cyclodextrins like; 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-γ-CD (HPγCD) as approved excipients for solubilizing, and delivering lipophilic drugs in humans. Moreover, HPβCD was used as one of ingredients of janssen vaccine for COVID-19.

How we will use the funds raised

We plan to do all the pre-clinical phases and if the prerequisites are met to enter clinical phases, we would like to continue our studies step by step. In this way, we tend to start with simulation and in-vitro studies by the help of this fund. After that we need more funds to do clinical studies and make the product ready for marketing. According to our planning the costs are as below:

Researcher team   $240000

Infrastructure expenses    $200000

Publishing papers, patents, and dissemination  $15000

Conferences   $5000

Market Size

The total market of product is dependent on the number of lung cancer patients in the world. According to World Health Organization, in 2020 about 10 million death happened for the cancer that 1.80 million of that belonged to lung cancer (https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/cancer). It is estimated that this year, about 235760 adults (119100 men and 116660 women) in USA will be diagnosed with lung cancer (https://www.cancer.net/cancer-types/lung-cancer-non-small-cell/statistics). American cancer society reported that treatment for lung cancer patients involves one or more of the following options:

Surgery: $15000 or more

Chemotherapy: $10000-$200000 or more

Radiation therapy: $10000-$50000 or more

Drug therapy: $4000 or more a month depending on the drug

Also, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reported that this type of patients are normally hospitalized for 1 week at a cost of $15600 total, or $2200 per day (https://health.costhelper.com/lung-cancer.html).

Considering the mentioned statistics, the costs of lung cancer treatment including hospitals, drugs and so on, placed a heavy burden on patients, insurances, and in general society. We pursue an effective drug with novel nanotechnology that lead to decrease the duration of treatment and hospitalization, lowering the side effects and the total costs, and  lastly, as a result increasing the satisfaction of patients.

Projected 3 Year Growth

In the following three years, we intend to achieve at least one patent related to our nanoparticle. It may worth $500000-$1M to be sold to the manufacturers and generally who are active in drug industrial section. It is just the first revenue that can be made. We are hopeful after finishing our clinical procedure, the main drug system (drug and smart nanocarrier) and treatment method will get the biggest revenue about $100M or even more.

Revenue Model

We follow finding appropriate investors and gather together for making such a huge development in cancer therapy step by step.
