NBM-BMX Capsule
NBM-BMX is a novel chemical compound designed to specifically inhibits the HDAC 8 protein. The developing isoform-selective HDAC inhibitors has become crucial due to the observed side effects limiting the clinical application of FDA-approved non-selective HDAC inhibitors. NBM-BMX demonstrates exceptional tumor inhibitory activity across various cancer types, particularly those exhibiting high expression levels of HDAC8 protein. Novelwise holds global rights to NBM-BMX, including manufacturing and sales. The phaseIb/II clinical trial for newly diagnosed GBM is ongoing.

NBM-BMX received USFDA approval to proceed Phase Ib/II clinical trial in newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
NatureWise’s new drug, NBM-BMX, received USFDA approval on January 4th, 2023 to proceed in Phase Ib/II clinical trials in newly diagnosed GBM. Glioblastoma multiforme is one of the most aggressive, invasive, and deadly malignancies. More than 60% of newly diagnosed GBM patients do not respond to standard treatment. Our studies demonstrated that NBM-BMX is a new therapeutic approach with the potential for addressing this need for safer, more effective treatment options for GBM.
