Who definitely deserves credit in the fight against cancer: NetraMark, Moderna, BioNTech
Two biotech pioneers, Moderna and BioNTech, are back in the spotlight after their COVID-19 vaccine success - this time in a race to develop innovative cancer therapies. Both companies rely on mRNA technology to develop personalized cancer vaccines. Speed is crucial here: whoever brings effective treatments to market first could secure billions in market share. At the same time, AI startup NetraMark is entering the stage with novel data analysis that could significantly accelerate research and shape medical progress. We shed light on what is currently driving both the research community and investors.

BioNxt Solutions – Attack on new highs
After global stock markets had been on an upward trajectory in recent weeks, US President Donald Trump caused some irritation with a post on his social media platform, "Truth Social." The escalating trade dispute with China, the world's second-largest economy, caused the already overvalued markets to falter. The DAX lost just under 1.8% at the end of the week, while the Nasdaq technology index suffered significantly more, losing just under 4.3%. In the coming weeks, stock picking is likely to take center stage. Against this backdrop, BioNxt Solutions, a life sciences company specializing in innovative technologies for next-generation drug delivery, was able to shine with fundamental milestones and buck the negative trend.

Cancer research with billion-dollar potential: How Bayer, Vidac Pharma, and BioNTech could come into play
The oncology market is booming like no other. Driven by technological quantum leaps and, unfortunately, rising case numbers, cancer treatment is becoming a highly lucrative innovation engine. The sector is growing at double-digit rates every year. Experts predict that the global market volume will break the USD 1 trillion mark within the next decade. No wonder, then, that the race for the next therapeutic breakthroughs in personalized medicines and AI-supported active ingredients is heating up. Investors are focusing not only on established players like Bayer, but also on up-and-coming specialists such as Vidac Pharma and mRNA pioneers like BioNTech.

Understanding metabolism, generating returns: Vidac Pharma, Roche, AstraZeneca
In the search for new treatments against diseases, researchers agree on one thing: the holy grail is unlikely to be found. Instead, it is incremental improvements and combination therapies that promise progress in complex diseases such as cancer. Cell metabolism is considered a promising approach, for example, in cancer, when the metabolism of a cancer cell is disrupted, the cell dies. In this article, we present current approaches and also discuss a biotechnology company that is wholly dedicated to cellular metabolism.

New research findings – Cell metabolism relevant in cancer: Roche, Novartis, and Vidac Pharma
What if cancer cells no longer grew uncontrollably, and we could target the metabolism of these cells directly? The so-called Warburg effect makes this possible. Discovered around 100 years ago by Otto Warburg, the effect describes the energy metabolism of cancer cells and shows that their metabolism differs from that of healthy cells. This opens up great opportunities for specific therapies in biotechnology. The theoretical assumption is that if the metabolism of cancer cells can be specifically disrupted, treatment will be targeted and free of side effects. Biotech start-up Vidac Pharma is fully committed to the Warburg effect. We explain what the Canadians are researching and why the technology could complement the offerings of several large pharmaceutical companies.

War, raw material shortages, cancer: Capitalize on megatrends with Rheinmetall, Antimony Resources, Merck KGaA
Three megatrends are expected to drive global markets in 2025. Revolutionary technologies, such as AI and cybersecurity, are fundamentally changing the defence sector. At the same time, demand for critical raw materials for defense, high-tech applications, and the energy transition is exploding, requiring new, sustainable supply chains. In parallel, the pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a dramatic shift due to advances in AI-driven research and intensified competition. These forces are shaping the future opportunities for companies. Those who are strategically positioned here will win, as key players Rheinmetall, Antimony Resources, and Merck KGaA demonstrate.

Key technology in the fight against cancer? Merck & Co., Vidac Pharma, AstraZeneca
Do you know what aerobic glycolysis is? No? Have you ever heard of the Warburg effect? Both terms describe the same phenomenon: cancer cells utilize glucose to produce lactate, even in the presence of oxygen and fully functional mitochondria. This is what distinguishes cancer cells from healthy cells. Current research suggests that targeted interventions in the Warburg effect could be suitable for killing cancer cells or making them more receptive to other therapies. Companies around the world are pushing forward research into this effect – the goal is nothing less than curing cancer. We present some of the companies and analyze whether their stocks could be good investments.

Bayer on the path out of crisis. With their oncology pipelines, are Defence Therapeutics and BioNTech also on the verge of a turnaround?
After several years of stumbling from one crisis to another, pharmaceutical and agrochemical giant Bayer is now showing signs of a recovery on the horizon. As Bayer navigates its long and rocky road out of the crisis, investors and industry experts are now turning their attention to two other exciting biotech companies: Defence Therapeutics and BioNTech. Both companies, which have caused a sensation in the past mainly due to their revolutionary approaches in cancer therapy, could follow in Bayer's footsteps with their promising oncology pipelines, moving from uncertainty to a bright future.
