Our Vision

Chiromesh Therapeutics is an early-stage company engineering a novel, biodegradable, micro-structured and pliable film – µMESH (micro-mesh) – for the sustained delivery of various therapeutic agents, including chemotherapeutic drugs, small inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, nanomedicines, and oncolytic viruses, targeting uncurable malignancies

​​​​​

µMESH has been validated for the treatment of high-grade gliomas, where localized and sustained delivery of advanced chemo-immunotherapies enhances therapeutic efficacy while avoiding systemic toxicity

High-Grade
Gliomas

High-grade gliomas (glioblastoma) are among the most aggressive tumors

With a 5-year survival rate of only 5% and no major advancements in clinical standard in over two decades, glioblastoma leaves patients with a life expectancy of less than 20 months

In the treatment of glioblastoma, even a modest increase in survival is considered a great success

median survival below 20 months

20,000+ US cases per year

Our Core Technology

µMESH against high-grade gliomas

µMESH is a micro-structured, flexible polymeric film capable of adhering to complex biological surfaces and delivering thereof a variety of therapeutic agents

​​​​​​

Like a surgical patch, the biodegradable and foldable µMESH is deposited at the tumor margins during routine surgical intervention for tumor resection

​​​​​

Through a single intracranial deposition, µMESH enables the local release of powerful combination therapies for days, weeks, and months

Precise micro-Structure

Using consolidated techniques from microchip manufacturing, µMESH is microfabricated to produce unique structures with micrometric accuracy and high reproducibility

Advanced Treatment Solutions

µMESH has two drug-compartments and can hold a variety of therapeutic payloads, and its architecture and composition remain consistent regardless of the payloads used

Reaching deep into the tumor

µMESH adheres and conforms to complex biological surfaces and establishes high drug concentration gradients right at the tumor margins, thus facilitating the uniform and deep permeation of various therapeutics agents

Personalized Care Approaches

µMESH is engineered to deliver small molecules, peptides, proteins, monoclonal antibodies, nanomedicines, and oncolytic viruses, enabling the administration of personalized therapeutic regimens to maximize efficacy for each patient

Key Technological Features

Discover how the technological advancements of µMESH provide precise control over disease progression and effectively combat high-grade gliomas and other uncurable malignancies with advanced therapies.

Multi- Drug Compartment

µMESH comprises multiple drug compartments for the localized delivery of powerful combination therapies, including chemotherapies, targeted therapies, and immunotherapies. By enabling the the precise control of the spatial and temporal distribution of different therapeutic agents within the brain parenchyma, µMESH directly addresses major challenges in the treatment of aggressive brain tumors - poor brain penetrance, tumor heterogeneity, and systemic toxicity

Mechanical Flexibility

The customizable geometry and mechanical properties of µMESH, including adjustable pore sizes and strands' flexibility, enable it to conform precisely to complex biological surfaces like the tumor margins. The intimate contact with the surrounding malignant tissue ensures targeted drug delivery, maximizing therapeutic efficacy and minimizing off-target effects
