    In May, 2015, biOasis announced continued success with the Transcend Platform using its lead blood-brain barrier delivery vector, melanotransferrin peptide or MTfp, to deliver Trastuzumab (TZM) across the blood-brain barrier. The results revealed that the Transcend fusion protein MTfp-TZM showed increased activity against Her2+ brain tumors when compared to Transcend/Trastuzumab conjugates that biOasis has previously tested, including the BT2111 conjugate used in the study at Texas Tech University.

    Rob Hutchison, biOasis CEO, stated, "We knew the researchers from Texas Tech University were planning to submit a paper for publication. Because it was their paper, we simply waited for the process to unfold and the wait was very much worth it. The paper has been peer-reviewed, published and has been extremely well received. The publishing of this work is very important to biOasis in order to obtain scientific acceptance in academic communities and within the pharmaceutical industry. On behalf of biOasis I want express our gratitude to all of the contributors to this very important study."
