Rakuten Medical is developing Alluminox platform-based photoimmunotherapy, which involves two key steps: 1) drug administration and 2) targeted illumination using medical devices. The drug component consists of a cell-targeting moiety conjugated to a light-activatable dye, such as IRDye\u00ae 700DX (IR700), that selectively binds to the surface of targeted cells, such as tumor cells. The device component consists of a light source that locally illuminates the targeted cells with red light (690nm) to transiently activate the drug. Rakuten Medical\u2019s pre-clinical data have shown that this activation elicits rapid and selective necrosis of targeted cells through a biophysical process that compromises the membrane integrity of the targeted cells. Therapies developed on the Alluminox platform may also result in local and systemic innate and adaptive immune activation due to immunogenic cell death of the targeted tumor cells and\/or the removal of targeted immunosuppressive cells within the tumor microenvironment. Photoimmunotherapy was originally developed by Dr. Hisataka Kobayashi and his team at the National Cancer Institute in the United States. Outside Japan, Rakuten Medical\u2019s Alluminox platform-based photoimmunotherapy is investigational.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>About Rakuten Medical, Inc.<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rakuten Medical, Inc. is a global biotechnology company developing and commercializing Alluminox\u2122 platform-based photoimmunotherapy, which, in pre-clinical studies, has been shown to induce rapid and selective cell killing.
