N-Chlorotaurine
N-chlorotaurine, or NCT, is a novel, anti-infective compound that is exceptionally safe and tolerable. After the drug kills the infection, it quickly breaks down into natural substances already found in the human body, and therefore it is non-toxic and does not cause allergic reactions. NCT is effective against a broad-spectrum of infections including both bacteria, viruses and fungi, and destroys virtually all pathogens. Unlike antibiotics, the way it kills pathogens prevents them from ever becoming resistant to the drug. NCT has several significant advantages over existing therapies:

• Broad-spectrum effectiveness (bacteria, fungi, viruses, molds)
• Minimal/no drug resistance (unspecific mechanism of action)
• Exceptional safety and tolerability (endogenous substance) and non-allergenic
• Readily soluble in water, a neutral pH and needs no preservative
• Inexpensive and easy to manufacture

NCT has recently been shown to work effectively in several small-scale Phase II human clinical studies, including sinusitis, otitis externa (“swimmers ear”), viral conjunctivitis (“pink eye”), and crural leg ulcers. The inventors from the University of Innsbruck, Austria, are currently continuing their ongoing clinical research of the drug in several additional indications. The Company plans to submit an Investigational New Drug application to the FDA, and eventually partner the drug with several companies for various indications.
