Redefining Drug Delivery

Maximizing impact while minimizing toxicity with the first-of-its-kind approach

THE PROBLEM

Traditional Drug Delivery

Drug distributes via systemic
circulation with low/no specificity.

Target cells are often not reached
due to biological barriers.

THE SOLUTION

NaDeNo’s Nanotechnology Platform

NaDeNo is re-defining drug delivery,
achieving high specificity in
hard-to-reach tissues/cells with:

  • Local administration and retention
  • Tissue-adhesive nanoparticles carrying the drug

Differentiated for Impact

Drug is encapsulated and injected locally

Delivers drug safely to the target site, bypassing biological barriers.

Nanoparticles anchor directly to tissue

Local retention due to passive chemical mechanisms.

Drug is released precisely at the target site

Optimized drug release mechanism ensures sustained therapeutic levels locally while minimizing systemic toxicity.

Proprietary Materials. One-step Manufacturing Process.

Stable suspension,
long term stability

Sustainable & low cost

No downstream
processing needed

Lead Candidate

PACAB-002 for ovarian cancer

PACAB-002 OVERVIEW

Designed to target intraperitoneal micrometastases

Our innovative cabazitaxel nanoparticle formulation is engineered to reach, attach to, and eradicate peritoneal micrometastases from ovarian cancer.

PACAB-002 polymer nanoparticle
– patented nanoformulation of cabazitaxel.

Cabazitaxel (encapsulated drug)
is FDA and EMA approved.

Ready-to-use Liquid Dispersion
Stable and homogenous formulation

200 nm

THE PROBLEM PACAB-002 SOLVES

The hidden reason why ovarian cancer patients relapse

After initial cancer treatment, tiny tumor deposits (micrometastases) remain in the peritoneal cavity. Because they lack blood vessels, they were never reached by systemic treatment. This drives relapse and poor survival rates.

Micrometastases are not reached by standard of care

Tumors with blood vessels are reached through systemic drug administration.

Systemic drugs are ineffective as the micrometastases has limited or no vascularization

10x

Higher drug concentration in target cells

97%

Tumor reduction with single dose

100%

Survival after two cycles

PACAB-002 achieves 10x higher drug concentration in tumors compared to free (non-encapsulated) drug.

PACAB-002 eradicated tumors within 38 days with >97% tumor reduction compared to free drug.

100% survival after 2 treatment cycles. Median survival doubled with single dose vs. free drug.
