CytRx Corporation Announces Executive Changes, Effective January 10, 2022

LadRx Corp is a biopharmaceutical research and development company specializing in oncology. The Company focuses on the discovery, research and clinical development of anti-cancer drug candidates that employ technologies that target chemotherapeutic drugs to solid tumors and reduce off-target toxicities. The Company’s linker activated drug release (LADR) technology platform consists of an organic backbone that is attached to a chemo toxic agent. The LADR backbone is to first target and deliver the chemo toxic agent to the tumor environment, and then to release the chemo toxic agent within the tumor. The LADR Technology offers the opportunity for multiple pipeline drugs. The LADR development efforts are focused on two classes of ultra-high potency albumin-binding drugs. These LADR-based drugs, LADRs 7, 8, 9, and 10, combine the proprietary LADR backbone with derivatives of the auristatin and maytansinoid drug classes.
