 PROFILE
SYNSORB Biotech's SYNSORB Pk is the "hamburger disease"-helper: The carbohydrate-based drug traps and inactivates dangerous toxins produced by the "E. coli" bacteria. With no other treatment available, SYNSORB Pk received emergency clearance from Canadian and US regulatory bodies to be used in outbreaks in Ontario and Milwaukee. Analysis of the drug's performance has revealed that more tests will be necessary, however. The company has suspended development of SYNSORB Pk in favor of SYNSORB Cd, its new lead drug candidate, which is a treatment for antibiotic-associated diarrhea. SYNSORB Biotech owns a substantial stake in Oncolytics Biotech, which is working on a cancer therapy.
