Cellectar Biosciences Inc. (symbol: CLRB) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative drugs aimed at treating cancer. The company's core focus is leveraging its proprietary Phospholipid Drug Conjugate (PDC) delivery platform, which is designed to target cancer cells specifically, thereby enhancing efficacy and reducing off-target effects.
Cellectar's PDC platform is founded on proprietary phospholipid ether analogs, small molecules known for their selective uptake and retention in various cancers. This technology underpins the company's product pipeline, which includes both therapeutic and diagnostic agents for oncology. The lead therapeutic candidate, CLR 131, utilizes the cytotoxic radioisotope iodine-131 as its payload. CLR 131 has received orphan drug designation from the US FDA and is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical study for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma and a Phase 2 clinical study for a range of B-cell malignancies.
In addition to CLR 131, Cellectar is working on developing proprietary PDCs for targeted chemotherapeutic delivery, with several candidates in preclinical stages. The company actively collaborates with research and development partners to expand its PDC platform's applications.
Financially, Cellectar maintains a robust pipeline and continues to secure funding for its clinical and preclinical programs. The company’s innovative approach and partnerships highlight its significant role in the biopharmaceutical landscape.
