About NV-VPAC1™

NuView's technology, branded NV-VPAC1™, consists of a small molecule peptide construct that targets the vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor type 1 (VPAC1), a part of the G protein-coupled receptor family. The VPAC1 receptor becomes highly overexpressed on the cell surface of a variety of cancers including brain, breast, lung, bladder, prostate, cervical, and colon. Attaching a molecular imaging or therapeutic passenger to NV-VPAC1 enables NuView to develop a precisely targeted approach that has been used in clinical studies for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
