Industry experts have long recognized nonlinear distortion as the principal roadblock to tapping the optimum performance potential in communications, data conversion and other signal processing applications because previous engineering approaches were inefficient, inadequate, cumbersome or expensive. There team has developed a proprietary mathematical approach to solving nonlinear distortion, from which we have derived a robust integrated circuit architecture that is the core of our linearization products. By efficiently eliminating all types of nonlinear distortion, our linearization technology significantly improves the parameters for overall system design and, through reduced component count and more efficient operation, lowers cost and power consumption. We embed our linearization technology in our practical, high-performance linearization products for applications such as wireless communications, software-defined radio, medical imaging, satellite communications, radar, infrared imaging, and test and measurement instrumentation.

Sopherion’s current business focus is the execution of a Phase III, global, randomized, registration trial for first line therapy of invasive, metastatic breast cancer and the development and commercialization of Sopherion’s lead agent, Myocet™. Myocet is being investigated in an FDA agreed upon registration trial in combination with two other drugs, Herceptin® (Trastuzumab) and Taxol (Paclitaxel) vs. Herceptin® and Taxol alone, the current standard of care for first line HER-2-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer. Myocet™, a liposome-encapsulated doxorubicin with reduced cardiotoxicity, is a nanotechnology product that localizes into tumor vasculature and in contrast to parental doxorubicin avoids homing to the heart. This 363 patient global trial in twelve countries has as of 03/06/09 been fully recruited. Unblinding is anticipated by the summer of 2010 with NDA submission for full approval following within 6 months. Myocet® is already a registered drug in Canada, where Sopherion has commercial rights and in Europe where Cephalon has commercial rights for use in first line metastatic breast cancer in combination with cyclophosphamide.; Their Phase III trial is based on a Phase II trial, supported by Roche, which gave a 96% response rate and two and a half year median progression free survival for patients with metastatic breast cancer.
