ell-considered partnerships."

BiPar is developing multiple compounds designed to inhibit PARP-1 (poly-ADP-ribose polymerase), an enzyme crucial to DNA repair that is upregulated in certain tumors. The company's lead compound, BSI-201, has entered a series of Phase 2 trials in tumors types where PARP is overexpressed. The first of those trials will evaluate BSI-201 in patients with "triple negative" breast cancer, and BiPar expects to begin trials in brain and uterine cancers later this quarter.

"BiPar has an extraordinary platform of product candidates, a robust biomarker-driven clinical development plan for its lead program, BSI-201, and an industry-leading management team and board of directors," said Dr. Huh. "I look forward to building BiPar into a leading oncology company by leveraging its exciting product platform in DNA repair."

Dr. Huh received his M.D. and Ph.D. from Cornell University Medical College/Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and his A.B. from Dartmouth College.
