Innovation in healthcare is not just about science. It’s also about the patient experience. One small company is developing a unique treatment.

Scientific breakthroughs often start quietly—but when they show promise, they don’t stay under the radar for long. A biotech company advancing an innovative treatment is catching the interest of industry watchers. With patent protections secured and a team experienced in biotech development, this company is steadily progressing toward its next milestone.

#Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • First-In-Class Microneedle Patch Technology: Non-invasive, painless, and cost-effective alternative to Mohs surgery, the current standard of care.

  • Breakthrough Treatment Option: 5 million+ basal cell carcinoma (BCC) cases diagnosed annually in the U.S.

  • SkinJect Market Opportunity: Medicus is targeting a $2B share of the $15B skin cancer market in North America1.

  • Projected Development Costs: $75M to $100M - substantially lower than the average cost of cancer treatment research and development of $648M2.

  • Pricing Advantage: Treatment price projected at ~$1,000 (E), offering a cost-effective alternative to Mohs surgery ($1,800–$2,500)3.

  • Analyst Confidence: Share price targets of $10 (Maxim Group) and $12 (Brookline Capital)3 - more than 240% to 300% upside based on a $2.90 closing price on 4 March 2025.
    (Note: Analyst targets are based on projections and assumptions that may not materialize).

  • Phase 2 Trial Progress: Over 50% of patients enrolled; positive interim data with 60% complete clinical clearance of the BCC lesions1.

  • Regulatory Pathway Advantage: Potential FDA Fast-Track designation.

  • Strong Financial Position: No long-term debt, $16M raised in 2024, sufficient cash for Phase 2 completion.

  • IP Protection: University-developed technology with patents secured through 2035.

Medicus Pharma Ltd (NASDAQ: MDCX) is developing a novel, targeted therapy for basal cell carcinoma (BCC)1 - the most common cancer worldwide4. With strong patent protection, it offers a groundbreaking and cheaper alternative to surgery. The SkinJect patch can be applied during a weekly 30-minute office visit over three visits in two weeks. It is non-invasive, relatively painless, cost-effective, and aesthetically pleasing.

Independent analysts, Maxim Group and Brookline Capital Markets have issued price targets of $10 & $123, reflecting potential upside based on clinical progress, expected market share, and regulatory approvals. These estimates assume successful commercialization by 2027 and represent a potential 4x return from the current share price of $2.90 on 4 March 2025.

What drives their bullish outlook? It comes from the company's ability to price its treatment at approximately $1,000, offering a cost-effective alternative to Mohs surgery, which typically costs between $1,800 and $2,500 per
