  • Co-authored scientific publication in “Pharmaceuticals” – TMTHSI in metal-free click chemistry

    A study co-authored by TBD and published in “Pharmaceuticals” in August 2023 has detailed the properties and potential applications in metal-free click chemistry for a new compound, tetramethylthiocycloheptyne sulfoximine (TMTHSI). The research was a collaborative effort involving six institutions: Cristal Therapeutics and Maastricht University in The Netherlands, Utrecht University, TBD Pharmatech in Estonia, Lonza AG in Switzerland, and the University of Glasgow in the UK. The study focused on three main aspects of TMTHSI. First, it examined the compound’s scalability and found that it can be produced in quantities of up to 100 grams. Second, the research looked at the

  • Project: PET-Diagnostics in collaboration with PharmIdea

    Project: PET-Diagnostics in collaboration with PharmIdea

    TBD Pharmatech worked on a PET-diagnostics project together with Latvian partner SIA PharmIdea from 2017 until 2019. The main objective of the Project was to develop a PET-product used in Positron emission tomography-computer tomography (PET-CT) for cancer, Alzheimer or Parkinson diagnostics. The outcome of the Project was final dosage form of the PET-product with all the documentation package, necessary for its implementation in nuclear medicine centers and hospitals. After the first Product has been developed and marketed, TBD and PharmIdea plan to continue the cooperation and develop the next PET-diagnostics and other products for oncology studies, studies of Alzheimer and
