Glioblastoma is the most common brain cancer in adults. No treatment yet exists and the lifespan of an affected individual is just 15 months. Surgery is often the treatment of choice but only extends life expectancy by a few months. This company offers a particularly innovative medical device which, implanted in the cavity created by the removal of the tumor after surgery, consists of capturing and then destroying the residual cancer cells. The device is made up of innovative electronic material made of flexible, biocompatible organic plastic (which can be implanted in the human body) and manufactured using a 3D printer.
