COMPANY MISSION
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is emerging as a promising cancer treatment modality, particularly for difficult-to-treat tumors like glioblastoma. Japan has led clinical adoption with over 200 patients treated since 2020, while China and Europe are ramping up clinical trials. The precision targeting capability of boron-10, when irradiated with low-energy neutrons, minimizes damage to healthy tissues - a significant advantage over conventional radiotherapy. Pharmaceutical companies are investing in boron-containing drug development, with several boron-10 based compounds currently in Phase II/III trials for various oncology indications.
