INSPIRE Therapy

Inspiring Hope for Incurable Cancers

Overview

 

INSPIRE Therapy uses ultrashort electrical pulses to target and destroy cancer cells by disrupting the cell and organelle membranes.

 

This technique enables clinicians to treat inoperable tumors which form in challenging locations near major blood vessels, nerves, or other critical structures.

 

Our laboratory develops the instrumentation, software, and treatment planning algorithms necessary to implement this technique in a clinical setting.

Clinical Translation

 

Our laboratory is currently investigating the use of INSPIRE therapy against multiple forms of inoperable tumors which form in the brain, liver , and pancreas.

 

In addition, we are developing combinatorial techniques to address breast, skin, lung and kidney cancers with the goal of reducing systemic toxicity associated with standard of care treatments and inducing a systemic vaccine like immune response against metastatic disease.

 

We use a combination of in vitro 3D tumor models and benchtop perfused organ models to evaluate clinically relevant protocols, applicators, and instrumentation.

 

These techniques are then evaluated with intent to treat in veterinary patients with spontaneous cancers to validate new protocols in preparation for translation to human clinical patients.

Ongoing Clinical Trials

 

We are actively enrolling equine patients in a pre-clinical safety/efficacy study for the use of INSPIRE to treat cutaneous melanoma. Please contact us for details.

 

We are preparing for safety / efficacy studies for the use of INSPIRE to treat canine breast, liver, and brain tumors. Please contact us for details.
