About FID-007
FID-007 consists of paclitaxel encapsulated in a
polyethyloxazoline (PEOX) polymer excipient designed to enhance PK,
biodistribution, and tolerability. In addition to allowing the drug
to remain in solution until it can enter a cancer cell, the PEOX
nanoparticle is designed to preferentially deliver paclitaxel to
the tumor through the leaky hyperpermeable vasculature.

Fulgent Pharma has developed and possesses a novel
nanoencapsulation technology, which includes over 40 patents and a
targeted therapy platform designed to improve the therapeutic
window and pharmacokinetic profile of both new and existing cancer

Fulgent Genetics – in order to better pursue their independent
objectives. Today, Fulgent Pharma is fully focused on perfecting
drug candidates for treating a broad range of cancers. Its partners
in this endeavor include the University of Southern California,
Moffitt Cancer Center, and ANP Technologies.
