CytImmune teams with UMBI on nanotech product
Abstract:
CytImmune Sciences, which is developing a nanotech treatment for cancer, will become the first industry ‘‘customer" to use the biomanufacturing facility at the University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute.
The Rockville facility was built in 2006 specifically to help small companies meet federal quality standards for their products.
CytImmune, with 16 employees, will partner with UMBI's ‘‘good manufacturing practices" facility to help develop AuriTol, which uses nanotechnology to target cancer, said Lawrence Tamarkin, CEO of the Rockville company.
AuriTol is the second drug that CytImmune is developing. The first, Aurimune, will soon enter phase 2 human clinical trials.
