ML7710 for photoactivated treatment of lung cancer

Deadliest cancer Precision with photoactivation Photoimmunotherapy with ML7710 offers a clinical therapeutic option for NSCLC patients even with advanced disease stage. Besides laser light, this therapy involves photoactivated drug, which can be activated precisely at the tumor site with laser fibers, hence minimizing drug effects to healthy tissues. Smaller invasiveness compared to surgery can enable patients to stay less time recovering at the hospital. It can also be repeated if needed multiple times without cumulating toxicities, unlike radiation therapy. Some previously inoperable tumors can decrease Continue reading →Deadliest cancer Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, with more than 2.2 million cases and 1.8 million deaths each year [1]. Lung cancer can be divided into two types, small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with the latter accounting for about 85% of all lung cancer cases. NSCL is usually less sensitive to chemo- and radiotherapy and in many cases tumor cannot be removed surgically or has spread from lungs to distant sites at the time Continue reading →

Laser illumination platform with real-time spectral monitoring and treatment

Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Visa Kaivosoja, Robert Perttilä, Elias Kokko, Timo Tanila, Zoe Ylöniemi, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland)    Presented in: SPIE BIOS 2022 Authors: Visa Kaivosoja, Robert Perttilä, Elias Kokko, Timo Tanila, Zoe Ylöniemi, Petteri Uusimaa, Modulight Corporation (Finland) Personalized medicine is one of the main directions in current cancer care. To support this trend, Modulight has designed a laser illumination platform with real-time spectral monitoring to adjust treatments based on each patient’s optical properties of the tissue, providing more personalization to light-based treatments. The laser has been designed to illuminate and retrieve spectral data from the tumor tissue simultaneously from up to Continue reading →
