Company Summary

Nanotherapix has developed a platform for ex vivo reprogramming of peripheral blood cells (NT-cells) which upon i.v. administration are able to address to inflammed sites and home there. NT-cells can steadily express a selected therapeutic gene for long periods of time. NT-cell technology is applicable to human monocytes. Readministration is feasible since NT-cells do not raise immune response.
