LiPlasome Pharma is a biotechnology company established in 2001 with a mission to develop and commercialize a novel prodrug and drug delivery platform that can be used for targeted transport of anticancer drugs. The company is located within the Campus of the Technical University of Denmark near Copenhagen in the Medicon Valley region.

The combination of a protected blood transportation nanocarrier system and a tumor specific activation technology makes LiPlasome Pharma very competitive in a commercially attractive and dynamic anticancer market, where drug delivery systems (DDS) will gain increasing importance over the coming years. LiPlasome Pharmas proprietary drug delivery technology represents a spin-off from fundamental research carried out by the founders of the company over the last decade.

The novel targeted drug delivery technology developed by LiPlasome Pharma is expected to add substantially to a better and safer treatment of many cancer diseases.
