Because we believe that fighting cancer is hard enough!

BioCurity is a biopharmaceutical company developing drugs to transform radiation therapy. Our mission is to prevent certain side effects of radiation therapy for cancer patients. The side effects range from burns to the skin for breast cancer patients to pneumonia for lung cancer patients. Damage to healthy tissue of cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy is a direct cause of these side effects. The proposed drugs under development are from BioCurity’s patented technology and have been preclinically tested for multiple cancers including breast, lung, head and neck, prostate and colorectal cancer. Consistent with our preclinical studies we intend to mitigate side effects of radiation therapy without impairing the effectiveness of radiation treatment.

BioCurity Announces Issuance of Hong Kong Patent




BioCurity Pharmaceuticals Inc. ('BioCurity') Announces Issuance of Hong Kong Patent for Reduction of Side Effects Caused by Radiation Therapy Combined with Chemotherapy 

 JUPITER, Fla., - BioCurity, a private preclinical biotech company with a mission to prevent radiation therapy's side effects for cancer patients and survivors, received an issuance from the Hong Kong Patent Office for BioCurity's HK patent #1237267B entitled "Treatment of Cancer with a Combination of Radiation, Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles, and a Chemotherapeutic Agent." This Hong Kong patent covers the use of cerium oxide nanoparticles for the reduction of side effects caused by radiation therapy for lung and pancreatic cancer patients receiving a combination of therapeutically effective doses of radiation therapy and chemotherapy as part of their treatment regimen.

About BioCurity Pharmaceuticals Inc. 

BioCurity's proprietary technology is designed to protect normal cells from radiation damage without impacting the effectiveness of radiation treatment. Globally, approximately 6 million of the 18 million annually diagnosed new cancer patients receive radiation. The lack of a drug to protect cancer patients' internal tissues and skin from the short and long-term side effects of radiation therapy is a global unmet patient need.

Hi Cheryl, Well,... I must say, I'm actually shocked - you extended the campaign 60 days and did NOT lower the minimum investment! Why? Are you really NOT wanting to attract new investors? Are you NOT wanting this campaign to be successful? I really, really do NOT understand. Please reply. Thanks. Blessings

Hi Cheryl, well 2 months later with only 4 more weeks left in the campaign, investments sit at only $81.8K - less than 14% of your targeted total. Please… when you extend the campaign, will you please lower the minimum investment to $212.50 (50 shares) so that many, many others can participate and be included in this raise?! Thanks. Blessings

FAQS

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.

With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000 are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, they are limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.

At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.

StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.

For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancellation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancellation policy. You may find the company’s cancellation policy in the company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to be sent back to the account associated with the investment.

Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements. To learn more about Regulation Crowdfunding, click here, and for Regulation A+, click here.

These offerings are made through StartEngine Primary, LLC (unless otherwise indicated). 2) Regulation D offerings (Rule 506(c)), which are offered only to accredited investors. These offerings are made through StartEngine Primary, LLC. 3) Regulation Crowdfunding offerings (JOBS Act Title III), which are offered to non-accredited and accredited investors alike. These offerings are made through StartEngine Capital, LLC. Some of these offerings are open to the general public, however there are important differences and risks.

Investing in private company securities is not suitable for all investors. An investment in private company securities is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk.

Each investment also carries its own specific risks, and you should complete your own independent due diligence regarding the investment. This includes obtaining additional information about the company, opinions, financial projections, and legal or other investment advice. Accordingly, investing in private company securities is appropriate only for those investors who can tolerate a high degree of risk and do not require a liquid investment.

StartEngine Marketplace (“SE Marketplace”) is a website operated by StartEngine Primary, LLC (“SE Primary”), a broker-dealer that is registered with the SEC and a member of FINRA and the SIPC.

StartEngine Secondary (“SE Secondary”) is our investor trading platform. SE Secondary is an SEC-registered Alternative Trading System (“ATS”) operated by SE Primary that matches orders for buyers and sellers of securities. It allows investors to trade shares purchased through Regulation A+, Regulation Crowdfunding, or Regulation D for companies who have engaged StartEngine Secure LLC as their transfer agent. The term “Rapid,” when used in relation to transactions on SE Marketplace, specifically refers to transactions that are facilitated on SE Secondary, This is because, unlike with trades on the StartEngine Bulletin Board (“SE BB”), trades on SE Secondary are executed the moment that they are matched.

StartEngine Bulletin Board (“SE BB”) is a bulletin board platform on which users can indicate to each other their interest to buy or sell shares of private companies that previously executed Reg CF or Reg A offerings not necessarily through SE Primary. As a bulletin board platform, SE BB provides a venue for investors to access information about such private company offerings and connect with potential sellers. All investment opportunities on SE BB are based on indicated interest from sellers and will need to be confirmed. Even if parties express mutual interest to enter into a trade on SE BB, a trade will not immediately result because execution is subject to additional contingencies, including among others, effecting of the transfer of the shares from the potential seller to the potential buyer by the issuer and/or transfer agent. SE BB is distinct and separate from SE Secondary. SE Secondary facilitates the trading of securities by matching orders between buyers and sellers and facilitating executions of trades on the platform. By contrast, under SE BB, SE Primary assists with the facilitation of a potential resulting trade off platform including, by among other things, approaching the issuer and other necessary parties in relation to the potential transaction. The term “Extended”, when used in relation to transactions on SE Marketplace denotes that these transactions are conducted via SE BB, and that these transactions may involve longer processing times compared to SE Secondary for the above-stated reasons.

Even if a security is qualified to be displayed on SE Marketplace, there is no guarantee an active trading market for the securities will ever develop, or if developed, be maintained. You should assume that you may not be able to liquidate your investment for some time or be able to pledge these shares as collateral.

The availability of company information does not indicate that the company has endorsed, supports, or otherwise participates with StartEngine. It also does not constitute an endorsement, solicitation or recommendation by StartEngine. StartEngine does not (1) make any recommendations or otherwise advise on the merits or advisability of a particular investment or transaction, (2) assist in the determination of the fair value of any security or investment, or (3) provide legal, tax, or transactional advisory services.
