PhotonPharma, Inc. is a company that is developing a personalized therapeutic cancer vaccine called Innocell. The company is based in Fort Collins, CO, at the Research Innovation Center of Colorado State University. The vaccine is designed using autologous tumor tissue and a photochemical inactivation platform that uses riboflavin and UV light to render tumor cells incapable of replication while still being able to metabolize, express proteins, present antigen, and stimulate immune recognition and response mechanisms.
