About Stemline Therapeutics

Stemline Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel oncology therapeutics that target both cancer stem cells (CSCs) and tumor bulk.

SL-701 is an enhanced immunotherapy that activates the immune system to attack tumors. A multicenter, open label clinical trial with SL-701 is currently open for adult patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) in first recurrence. Previously, an earlier version of this therapy demonstrated clinical activity, including durable CRs and partial responses (PRs), in Phase 1/2 trials in adults and children with advanced brain cancers.
