Based in Calgary, Alberta, Providence Therapeutics is a Canadian mRNA company focused on personalized cancer vaccines. During the pandemic, Brad Sorenson and his team developed a COVID vaccine that went head to head against Pfizer in clinical trials and held its own, yet almost no one in Canada ever heard about it.
In this episode, host Jim Wilson speaks with founder and CEO Brad Sorenson about a journey that is as personal as it is professional. In 2013, Brad's 13-year-old son Adam was diagnosed with glioblastoma and given a year to live. Thirteen years later, Adam is still here, and Brad walks through the extraordinary series of events that shaped both his son's survival and the company he built.
It is also a candid conversation about the realities of drug development in Canada and Brad's passionate call for the country to give patients the right to fight for their lives through compassionate access.
