NSF STTR Phase I grant awarded!
Charleston SC, September 1st 2024
OncoBLAZE, an academic startup out of the Medical University of South Carolina, has been awarded a Phase I STTR grant by the National Science Foundation (NSF). This grant will support their groundbreaking research and developing technology for precision chemotherapy delivery. The company aims to address the unmet need of preventing cancer recurrence after surgery, which affects millions of people globally each year. By leveraging thermo-sensitive liposomal nanoparticle drugs and precision heat sources, OncoBLAZE seeks to eliminate residual cancer cells post-surgery. This innovative approach has the potential to significantly limit the likelihood of cancer recurrence, and cure cancer patients who otherwise would require additional therapies that are less likely curative. This grant will enable OncoBLAZE to advance their successful preclinical studies with their patent-pending technology and represents a significant step forward in the fight against cancer recurrence. The anticipated outcome is a game-changing therapy that offers a cure to cancer patients who would otherwise experience cancer regrowth.
