Our “off the shelf” stem cells deliver a viral payload that first kills cancer cells locally, and then supercharges the immune system to fight metastatic disease.
The approach to
finding a cure is in
our name:
Tumors evade the immune system by becoming immunologically “cold”, appearing to be normal cells. From the Latin word for hot (calidus), Calidi’s platforms help the immune system recognize cancer cells, making them “hot” tumors that immune cells can then attack and destroy.
