OxPhos inhibition: a new angle on intrinsic & acquired resistance

59% of cancers have no actionable target, leaving patients with few effective treatment options.

When cancers develop resistance to standard therapies, many rewire their metabolism to rely on oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) for survival.

Lixumistat targets OxPhos dependency directly, exploiting a vulnerability in resistant tumours.
