Novelos Therapeutics, Inc.

It comprises of three cancer-targeted compounds: GLOW2, HOT and LIGHT, which are used for the treatment of cancer.

Its LIGHT compound is a small-molecule cancer-targeted imaging agent, which is potential for selective detection of tumors and metastases in a broad range of cancers. Its HOT compound is a small-molecule, broad-spectrum, cancer-targeted molecular radio therapeutic that delivers radiation directly and selectively to cancer cells and cancer stem cells. Its GLOW2 compound is a small-molecule, broad-spectrum, cancer-targeted, non-radioactive optical imaging agent which is potential for intraoperative tumor margin illumination and non-invasive tumor imaging.
