CRISM Therapeutics Corporation

CRISM Therapeutics Corporation is a UK-based pharmaceutical company which has developed an innovative drug delivery technology, ChemoSeed, to improve the clinical performance of cancer treatments for solid tumours through the local delivery of chemotherapy. ChemoSeed is a polymer the size of a grain of rice, administering irinotecan, a generic drug approved to treat brain cancer and can be implanted directly into a tumour or the resection margin following the removal of a tumour. ChemoSeed will initially be used to treat high grade gliomas, a brain tumour with no satisfactory treatment.
