In an effort to increase the number of cancer therapy choices available in both areas, the two businesses will work together to develop and market BNCT using steboronine. TAE Life Sciences (TLS) and Stella Pharma are collaborating to develop Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) technologies in the US and Europe. The partnership’s primary goal is to create and market BNCT using boronophenylalanine (BPA) from Stella Pharma under the brand name Steboronine.

Both businesses want to increase BNCT’s accessibility in these areas for the treatment of cancer. According to reports, Stella Pharma’s BPA medication is the first boron therapy for BNCT to be clinically licensed worldwide, which represents a significant advancement in cancer treatment.

To increase BNCT acceptance worldwide, Stella Pharma has now teamed up with TAE Life Sciences. In these areas, TAE Life Sciences will be Stella Pharma’s exclusive marketing partner for BPA, greatly increasing BNCT’s reach outside of Asia.

Rob Hill, CEO of TAE Life Sciences said, “Our collaboration with Stella Pharma brings together our mutual dedication to promoting BNCT as an effective cancer treatment for people everywhere,” We are thrilled to support BNCT globally with this potent therapeutic solution and to introduce the demonstrated advantages of BPA to healthcare facilities in the US and Europe. Both businesses seek to assist BNCT equipment suppliers around the globe in putting BPA-based BNCT treatments into practice.

TLS and Stella Pharma hope to accelerate research for additional diseases, such as brain, skin, breast, oesophageal, and lung cancers, and broaden BNCT’s clinical applications for treating recurrent head and neck cancers through collaborations within the BNCT ecosystem.

Koki Uehara, president and COO of Stella Pharma stated that “We are eager to work with partners throughout the world to develop and market BNCT, with the goal of providing patients and their families with this cutting-edge cancer treatment.”

In addition to looking at potential future collaborations, both parties intend to advance BNCT for tumors that are difficult to treat. Together, they seek to improve outcomes for cancer patients around the world, increase treatment options, and speed up innovation.

An important turning point in the global market adoption of BNCT was reached in April of this year when TAE Life Sciences reported that its accelerator-based neutron beam system (NBS) had successfully completed acceptance testing and regulatory registration inspection.
