[2002]-[BNP7787]-[BioNumerik Pharmaceuticals]

BioNumerik Pharmaceuticals crunches the numbers to develop drugs that fight cancer and the side effects associated with many therapies. The firm relies heavily on computer models and simulations to identify promising drug candidates. It accesses supercomputer technology through an alliance with Cray. Lead candidate BNP7787 may prevent nerve and kidney damage caused by cancer treatments and has been granted FDA fast-track development status. Most of the firm's revenue is from a joint venture with an affiliate of Japanese drugmaker Takeda Chemical Industries. Partner ASTA Medica of Germany will market BNP7787 in Europe and other select areas. Founder and chairman Frederick Hausheer owns nearly a third of BioNumerik.
