Aethlon Medical

Aethlon Medical, Inc. is a medical technology company which focuses on developing products to diagnose and treat life and organ threatening diseases. The company is headquartered in San Diego, California and currently employs 9 full-time employees. The firm is focused on advancing the Hemopurifier (HP), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutic device intended for applications in cancer, life-threatening viral infections, and organ transplantation and other areas of significant unmet needs. In pre-clinical studies, the Hemopurifier has exhibited the capacity to remove harmful extracellular vesicles (EVs) and enveloped viruses from biological fluids, utilizing its proprietary lectin-based mechanism. These extracellular vesicles have been implicated in disease processes such as immune suppression and metastasis in cancer as well as in the progression of severe life-threatening infectious diseases. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has designated the Hemopurifier as a Breakthrough Device for the treatment of individuals with advanced or metastatic cancer who are unresponsive to or intolerant of standard of care therapy.
