Kovina is focused on developing expanded treatment options for patients afflicted with these malignancies.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe are pleased Kovina\u2019s research proposal successfully competed in NCI\u2019s rigorous merit-based review process,\u201d said Dr. Elliot Androphy, CSO of Kovina Therapeutics. Kovina\u2019s technology specifically targets a key HPV protein expressed in early, pre-malignant and cancerous pathologies. By inactivating this protein, Kovina\u2019s compounds result in the selective death of HPV infected cells. \u201cOur therapeutics are designed to stop HPV infections before cancer develops and to treat HPV related cancers after detection.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>About Kovina Therapeutics<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nKovina Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing first-in-class antiviral therapies to treat cancers and pre-malignant infections caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV).
