Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Lantern Pharma Inc. focuses on developing oncology drugs like LP-300, LP-184, and LP-284 for various cancers, including NSCLC. Preliminary safety data for LP-300's Phase 2 trial showed an 86% clinical benefit rate and 43% objective response rate. The company maintains a compassionate use policy for LP-184, acknowledging requests within three business days. For honest business practices, Lantern Pharma has a formal Whistleblower Policy and a Code of Business Conduct, and reportedly self-reports minor breaches. However, information is scarce regarding fair pay, environmental impact, animal welfare practices, and drug price accessibility. Data on AI ethics governance and cybersecurity investments is also limited, despite the company's use of its proprietary AI platform, RADR®, in drug development.
