About
BioLineRx Ltd., an Israeli biopharmaceutical firm established in 2003 and based in Hevel Modi'in, focuses its clinical-stage development efforts primarily on oncology. Their leading investigational product, Motixafortide, a peptide, has successfully concluded pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials for mobilizing stem cells in autologous transplants, and Phase 2a trials targeting pancreatic cancer. This compound is currently progressing through Phase 2 studies for metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma and Phase 1b trials for acute respiratory distress syndrome linked to COVID-19 and other viral infections. Additionally, Motixafortide is being investigated for its therapeutic potential in solid tumors and acute myeloid leukemia. The company's pipeline also includes AGI-134, an immuno-oncology agent presently undergoing Phase 1/2a clinical evaluations for various solid tumors. Furthermore, BioLineRx is advancing BL-5010, a custom-designed, proprietary pen-like device intended for the non-surgical removal of skin lesions. BioLineRx maintains strategic alliances, notably a collaboration with MSD in the domain of cancer immunotherapy, and an agreement with MD Anderson Cancer Center to explore Motixafortide combined with KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) for pancreatic cancer. They also have a licensing deal with Perrigo Company plc for the over-the-counter sale of BL-5010.
