Encapsulate

Drug of choice is concealed within our light-responsive lipid carrier

Administer

Encapsulated drug circulates systemically in an inactive state, unable to cause off-target side effects

Activate

Wavelength-specific light triggers localized release from the carrier, activating the drug only at the illuminated site for a targeted therapeutic response

Journal of Controlled Release

Medical Oncologist

“There is still so much off target toxicity with most of the antibody drug conjugates … being able to target things like that would be great.”

Indications
