Boca Raton, Florida-based LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings (NASDAQ: LIXT) spent 2025 expanding its presence across multiple segments of oncology innovation. “The company is best known for its clinical-stage pharmaceutical pipeline built around LB-100, a first-in-class inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (‘PP2A’),” a recent article reads. “Rather than replacing established cancer therapies, LB-100 is designed to enhance their effectiveness. By inhibiting PP2A, the compound stimulates cell-cycle progression and interferes with DNA repair in cancer cells, potentially making tumors more responsive to chemotherapy and immunotherapy. LB-100 is currently being evaluated in multiple clinical programs targeting solid tumors with significant unmet medical need, including ovarian clear cell carcinoma, metastatic colon cancer and advanced soft tissue sarcoma.”
