Overview
Halifax, Nova Scotia-based Sona Nanotech’s (CSE:SONA,OTCQB:SNANF) patented nanoparticle manufacturing processes have allowed it to develop an innovative cancer therapy that can shrink tumors from the inside out, and in so doing, enables standard immunotherapy drugs to work significantly better and potentially on patients for whom no other treatment has worked. Sona’s gold nanorod manufacturing technology uniquely does not rely on the use of toxins, making them an ideal agent to be intratumorally injected in humans which can be used to generate therapeutic heat in the tumor.
Sona’s therapy will be applied to the late-stage melanoma tumors that cannot safely be resected and for which no other therapy has worked. Once Sona’s gold nanorods are injected into a tumor, Sona’s laser directs non-thermal, near infrared light energy that is tuned to the same…
