About N4 Pharma
N4 Pharma is a specialist pharmaceutical company developing a novel delivery
system for cancer and vaccine treatments using its unique silica nanoparticle
delivery system called Nuvec®.
N4 Pharma's business model is to partner with companies developing novel
antigens for cancer and vaccine treatments to use Nuvec® as the delivery vehicle
to get their antigen into cells to express the protein needed for the required
immunity. As these products progress through pre clinical and clinical programs,
N4 Pharma will seek to receive up front payments, milestone payments and
ultimately royalty payments once products reach the market.
