Overview
RS Research is a clinical-stage biotech leveraging its proprietary Sagitta® targeted delivery platform to develop next-generation polymer-drug conjugates for oncology. The company has a lead candidate, RS-0139 (docetaxel conjugate), currently in Phase I trials, with initial data accepted for presentation at ASCO 2025. Founded by award-winning innovators and recognized as a translational success story, RS Research aims to create safer, more effective chemotherapies and theranostics by selectively delivering payloads to tumors.
Technology Platform
Sagitta® platform: a clinically-validated, modular polymer-drug conjugate (PDC) system for targeted delivery. It uses tunable linkers and targeting ligands (e.g., to integrins) to selectively deliver cytotoxic or radiolabeled payloads to tumors, aiming to improve therapeutic index.
