Traditional cancer treatment like chemotherapy and radiation therapy often come with severe side effects and broad impacts on the patient’s body, affecting both cancerous and healthy cells. These methods can be imprecise, leading to less effective results and significant discomfort for patients. Additionally , the rigidity of treatment locations ,requiring patients to visit specialized facilities, adds another layer of stress and inconvenience. In order to overcome these “Portable cancer therapy machine “ has been designed and developed by Scientists Dr.Sainudeen Pattazhy and Dr.Nithin. This instrument edit cancer gene by CRISPR- Cas 9 ((clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and CRISPR-associated protein 9) method or introduce a different gene that provides instructions for a protein that help the cell function normally , despites the genetic alteration. After that modified genes can be stored in separate Catridge . From Catridges modified genes can be directed to patients with the help of Lipid Nano Particles. No need of Virus vectors in this case . Lipid Nano Particles cab be injected or given intravenously directly into a specified tissue in the body, where it is taken up by individual cancer cells. The devices sensors monitor the response of the cancer cells in real –time, allowing for immediate adjustments to the treatment protocol based on the observed effects. This continuous feedback loop ensures that the treatment remains as effective as possible throughout the therapy sessions. This instrument is compact and easy to transport , enabling use in a variety of settings, including the patients home. Cost about 12 lakhs.
