Agennix

Agennix is a privately held biotechnology company whose lead molecule, Talactoferrin Alfa (talactoferrin; TLF), is an immunomodulatory protein. Agennix is currently preparing to initiate Phase III development of oral talactoferrin for cancer, and topical talactoferrin gel for wound healing.
Liquid talactoferrin is an oral anti-cancer drug that has shown activity both as monotherapy and in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents. In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), talactoferrin was evaluated in a Phase II, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial where patients received standard first-line chemotherapy combined with either oral talactoferrin or placebo. The trial met its primary endpoint. Talactoferrin improved the relative confirmed response rate by 56% in the intent-to-treat population, and 62% in the prospectively defined evaluable population.
