Welcome to the Safinur website. This site contains scientific information on Safinur's effects on tumor cells in vitro, in animals and in humans. Safinur is a non-toxic compound that has been patented for its anti-tumor activity. 

In vitro studies are conducted in our 1500 sq ft facility located in Orange California

The anti-tumor properties of Safinur were discovered by SAFICOR scientists based in California. Using tissue culture techniques and biochemical methods, Saficor scientists are continuing work to determine the mechanisms of action and properties of the Safinur molecule.

One mechanism of action identified recently is Safinur's ability to interfere with cytoskeleton polymerization. The cytoskeleton is composed of multiple elements as shown below. The cytoskeleton is a crucial non-redundant system that plays a major role in cellular physiology and is a natural target for anti-tumor compounds. 

Historically, molecules that target the cytoskeleton were effective chemotherapies but were highly toxic. Saficor's discovery of a molecule that targets the cytoskeleton and has minimal or no toxicity is a major advance in the field of cancer therapeutics.
