The OxyLo Team
Our Story
OxyLo is a San Diego based Biotechnology company. We focus on helping liver patients get their life back. Our patented capsule technology is a revolutionary biomaterial-based implant designed to convert safe prodrugs into active chemotherapies from the inside of a tumor. Our mission is to starve these tumors to give hope and time back to patients who need it most.
We are a team of international PhD scientists with a combined 40 years of experience working in biology, chemistry, and engineering. Our philosophy of focusing on creativity and interdisciplinary science has led to the breakthrough innovations that we aim to provide today.
