Description:

HaimBio is a drug development company. Their flagship product, Starvanip, is a metabolism-based cancer therapy that kills cancer cells by starving them of metabolic energy. Starvanip inhibits cancer cell growth and induces apoptosis -- the death of cancer cells. It does this by inhibiting the energy source of cancer cells, dramatically reducing side effects such as harm to normal cells and reducing the toxicity of current anticancer therapies. The drug will also improve the rate of response and target a wider range of cancers. Tests have demonstrated efficacy with 12 types of cancer, as well as significant reductions of tumor sizes and increases of cancer cell death with almost no death of normal cells.
