Next Step: Proof of Efficacy on orthotopic Graft of Human Pancreatic Cancer in Pancreas of Mice
Combination of two medical devices: A generator of gradient of magnetic field and iron nanoparticles.
We are looking for Partners in the academic and industrial world; We are looking for investors.
Cell Constraint & Cancer (CC & C) is a start-up of biotechnology in support of R&D of a new approach in cancer research. The disruptive innovation (Patent PCT/EP 2014 064995), involves the application of mechanical cues (constraint/stress field) in the treatment of cancer. Physical Oncology defined as the study of cancer tissue with the tools of the solid matter physics is trying to subvert our concept of cancerous tumors.
The demonstration of Proof of Efficacy of this process would consider a crossing to humans by the year 2020. Right now we have begun a feasibility study of Proof of Efficacy, biological as well as physical. Proof of Efficacy itself is planed in Q4, 2016.
CC & C is presently “burning cash”, and is a bet on a success realized by a co-development with a company manufacturer of gradient of magnetic field equipment and/or a pharmaceutical company familiar with injectable ferric nanoparticles.
Hi Remy
congratulations for your research. Some years ago I probably should be interested in the development of the new approach in the field of cancer treatment. Unfortunatly I am now retired and not in charge of any patients.
I wish you all the best for the future.
With my warm regards
Alain
Nice thought!!
I don’t know if i am right but i am wondering if yoga therapy does the same.
The important contribution from mechanobiology i feel could be along with chemical cues.
if only drug does not respond to certain pathology, we can make mechanical therapy as synergistic effect.
Its my personal opinion but it is worth trying
