About Drug Repurposing
What is Drug Repurposing?

Drug repurposing (also known as drug repositioning) involves finding new therapeutic uses for existing approved drugs. This approach can significantly reduce drug development time and costs since safety profiles are already established.

Benefits in Cancer Research
  • Faster path to clinical trials (safety data available)
  • Lower development costs (~$300M vs $2-3B for new drugs)
  • Established manufacturing and supply chains
  • Potential for combination therapies
