About
BioSapien

Our Story

BioSapien was founded in 2018 by a physician who had seen the same problem from both sides of the operating table: cancer drugs are delivered to the whole body to treat one part of it.
That premise led to MediChip™ — a patented, biodegradable drug-delivery platform that places therapy at the tumor site and releases it locally over weeks. Built from advanced biomaterials using 3D printing, MediChip™ is engineered to cut systemic exposure while sustaining treatment exactly where it's needed.
Since founding, BioSapien has moved from scientific concept to clinical-stage company. We've completed GMP manufacturing, cleared IND, built a global patent portfolio, and secured backing from life sciences global investors. MediChip™-5-FU is now entering first-in-human study in locally advanced rectal cancer.
Cancer is the starting point, not the boundary. The underlying principle applies wherever medicine is needed: deliver it where it's required, for as long as it's required, and nowhere else.
