"Dosing our first patient in this trial is a major milestone for Bexion," stated Scott Shively, President and CEO. "BXQ-350 combined with its observed safety profile, potential efficacy, and possible neuropathy benefit makes BXQ-350 a worthwhile candidate to use in combination with standard of care treatment for mCRC to not only enhance the treatment of mCRC, but also to evaluate its ability to alleviate side effects related to CIPN."
