Curaxys, The New Spanish Biopharmaceutical Company Pioneer On Biopharmaceuticals Biosimilars

Oct. 25, 2009 - PRLog -- Curaxys is a biotechnology company that researches, develops, produces and marketing biosimilars products using new biotechnology  process and offering to the market, high quality product at  reasonable prices for the diseases treatment.

Technologies:
It is remarkable to inform that in the last 20 years have demonstrated  that the baculoviruses maintains a reputation for producing high yields of recombinant proteins in insect cells. Despite the difficulties of working with a virus in eukaryotic cells, the fact that posttranslational  modifications such as glycosylation, fatty acid acylacion , disulfide bond formation, and phosphorylation are carried out very similar to the same process in mammalian cells, demonstrating the value of bacuviruses as expression vectors.
We offer a complete range of biopharmaceuticals  biosimilars with structure, recombinant protein and monoclonal antibody.

The products are focused  to improve the quality of life of patient with new concept of product at reasonable cost in the field of the immunology, cancer treatment, multiple sclerosis, and virology.
The productscurrently in pharmaceutical developement are:
Recombinants proteins
  1. Insulin
  2. Growth Hormone
  3. Erythropoietin
  4. Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor ( GCSF)
Monoclonal Antibodies
  1. Rituximab
  2. Trastuzumab

The  founder and  CEO and  of the company is Dr. Manuel Esteban, PhD, MSc, MBA,.  He has over three decades of experience in pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical research conducted at leading pharmaceutical companies such as Juste SAQF, Sanofi-Aventis, DSM Pharmaceuticals  and Antibioticos (Montedison).
Dr. Esteban has held a variety of research management roles in projects related to cell and microorganism culture, technological development, as well as chemical, biochemical and enzymatic technologies.  He is also a proven business manager with the ability to bring in new clients, to create new companies and to develop business opportunities.

Curaxys is specialized in creating original technologies to develop new biological process useful for the production of therapeutical biological compounds: BIOSIMILARS.

The biological process used are the result of an exclusive technological partnership with universities, research institutions and biotechnological ocmpnaies and CMO.

The technologies applied are based on microbial fermentation, mammalian cell culture, insect cell culture using a Baculovirus Expression Vector System (BEVS) Protocol for the production of recombinant proteins and transgenic plant. The technologies allows to us to produce therapeutical proteins of great interest as biosimilars
