The Technology

NGs are nanovesicles derived from the cell membranes of allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs).
Using the NanoGhost technology, MSCs are emptied from their intracellular content and the cell membrane is downsized to the nanomolar range while its architecture and characteristics are retained.
NGs can be loaded with different therapeutics, ranging from small molecule drugs to proteins and nucleic acids.

NanoGhost Platform Characteristics
Targeted & Selective
NGs selectively target tumors, sites of inflammation and injury while demonstrating fast clearance from normal tissues
Versatile
NGs can be loaded with
various therapeutic cargos (small molecules, nucleic acids, proteins, plasmids) with wide payload
size range
Crosses Physiological Barriers
NGs cross the BBB
(GBM, MS) and tumor barriers (Pancreatic Cancer)
Broad Applicability
PoC demonstrated in
oncological, neurodegenerative,
and autoimmune models
Non-Immunogenic
NGs retain MSCs
allogeneic tolerability
Off the shelf
NGs are “off-the-shelf”
