Hemerion was founded in 2020 with the goal of developing innovative therapeutic solutions for cancer. Our approach is unique, combining expertise in biology, physics, and surgery to create new treatments.

Our first technology, which combines a drug (Pentalafen®) and an innovative illumination platform (Heliance®), is a prime example of our approach. It perfectly complements current neurosurgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy treatments. This technology is particularly promising in the treatment of the most common and aggressive brain cancer, glioblastoma, for which we have an active clinical program with very promising safety and efficacy results.
