Aequus BioPharma was formed in May 2007 as a majority-owned subsidiary of Cell Therapeutics, Inc. to discover, develop, and market biotherapeutics based upon the proprietary Genetic Polymer technology platform invented at CTI. Its technology addresses many of the traditional problems encountered during the development and commercialization of protein-based biopharmaceuticals. Aequus and CTI are collaborating on the development of AQB-101, a follow-on protein product or biosimilar based upon granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) coupled to a Genetic Polymer carrier domain. The company believe that AQB-101 provides an elegantly simple solution to the plasma half-life and bioavailability issues that have been observed with the original formulations of G-CSF-based biomedicines and which have been addressed by others using traditional chemical modification approaches in their G-CSF-based biosimilars.
