ZIOPHARM Oncology, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company that is seeking to develop and commercialize a diverse, risk-sensitive portfolio of in-licensed cancer drugs that address unmet medical needs. Our principal focus is on the licensing and development of proprietary drug candidates that are related to cancer therapeutics already on the market or in development and that can be developed in intravenous (“IV”) and/or oral forms of administration. We believe this strategy will result in lower risk and expedited drug development programs. While we expect to commercialize our products on our own in North America, we also recognize that promising clinical trial results might also be addressed in partnership with another company with the requisite financial resources. Currently, we are in phase I and/or II studies for three product candidates identified as darinaparsin (“ZIO-101”), palifosfamide (“ZIO-201”), and indibulin (“ZIO-301”).
