Lisata Therapeutics

Lisata Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company, which engages in the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative therapies for the treatment of solid tumors and other major diseases. The company is headquartered in Basking Ridge, New Jersey and currently employs 21 full-time employees. The Company’s cyclic peptide product candidate, certepetide, is an investigational drug designed to activate a novel uptake pathway that allows co-administered or tethered anti-cancer drugs to selectively target and penetrate solid tumors more effectively. Certepetide actuates this active transport system in a tumor-specific manner, resulting in systemically co-administered anti-cancer drugs penetrating and accumulating in the tumor, while normal tissues are expected to remain unaffected. The Company’s investigational drug candidate from the CendR Platform, certepetide, holds broader potential to be combined as a co-administration treatment with an array of anti-cancer and diagnostic agents to benefit solid tumor cancer patients.
