Curis is a drug development company that is committed to leveraging its innovative signaling pathway drug technologies to seek to create new medicines, primarily for cancer. In expanding its drug development efforts in the field of cancer through its Targeted Cancer Drug Development Platform, the Company is building upon its previous experiences in targeting signaling pathways in the areas of cancer, neurological disease and cardiovascular disease.
Signaling pathways are the means by which cells exchange instructional messages that regulate specific biological functions. Early in prenatal development, the instructional messages that direct the formation of tissues and organs are controlled by certain developmental signaling pathways, including the Hedgehog, bone morphogenetic protein, or BMP, and other pathways, which act by initiating cascades of gene signaling required for tissue formation and regulation. The body also uses these developmental signaling pathways to repair damage and regenerate tissues. For example, in damaged nerve tissue, our preclinical models demonstrate that activation of the Hedgehog pathway promotes repair and regeneration of nerve function, in part, by inducing the activation of a cascade of secondary signaling that promotes the growth of new cells and blood vessels.
