Beta-glucans

A unique platform for products with immune modulating effects

SBG® in Neuroblastoma vaccine trial

SBG® and Neuroblastoma

  • High impact indication in children (<50% survival in high-risk patients)
  • Proof of concept study for use of SBG® as adjuvant in immunotherapy of cancer

Patients under treatment

Data from trial presented at Advances in Neuroblastoma Research 2018 at 9-12 May in San Francisco

  • 84 patients with relapsed neuroblastoma treated with vaccine + SBG
