Description

There is a pressing need for designing new devices facilitating the development of paradigm changing, minimally invasive, approaches to treat diseased tissues in situ. Additionally, there is a growing number of studies showing that combinatorial approachesare providing a path for personalization of strategies to treat a wide array of disease states. While providing a promising path to revolutionize medicine, the evolution of personalized, minimally invasive, combinatorial therapies has been slowed as a result of technological limitations. As such, there is a pressing need for new medical devices to enable the development of trans-disciplinary strategies to combat disease. This Phase 1 project is designed to address this need through the development of a newflexible endoscopic compatible catheter designed for the treatment of various gastrointestinal related tissue diseases enabling the application of multiple therapeutic and diagnostic approaches (pharmaceutical, dual-ablation, cell and gene therapy, among
