CCRM is a VC fund in Toronto focused on Biotechnology and Health Care. Regenerative Medicine (RM), which aims to harness the power of stem cells, biomaterials and molecules to repair, regenerate or replace diseased cells, tissues and organs, has the promise to treat, manage and perhaps cure some of the most devastating and costly diseases in the world today.Many new and potentially life-changing RM-basedtreatments never reach patients because they are not successfully moved from the laboratory to a stage where they can be used in medicine. In order to fulfill RM’s promise to treat the many diseases affecting their population, a world-renowned group of stem cell scientists and bioengineers have come together to form CCRM.CCRM’s mission is to generate sustainable health and economic benefits through global collaboration in cell and gene therapy, and regenerative medicine.

They are generating a series of products, from different, but complementary approaches that will effectively address currently difficult to treat conditions.Bone can be one of the most difficult organs to access and treat with medicines. It’s hardsurface and low porosity presents challenges in adequately getting drugs to either the bone surface or to its interior. Treatment often requires administering high doses of a drug over extended periods. Not only is achievement of efficacy compromised, but also side- effects may be more prevalent and can limit treatment effectiveness.Mesentech’s lead technology is a proprietary bone targeting system that can effectively deliver small-molecule and biological drugs to the surface or to the interior of bone. Pre-clinical in-vivo models have confirmed the utility of this technology. |  | Corporate Round | Nov 01, 2018 |  |
