In two or three years, these results will open the doors to a clinical trial.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gate2Brain has a patented technology based on peptides (small proteins) that efficiently cross biological barriers, such as the blood-brain barrier that protects the brain.

The first indication that will benefit from the technology is in the field of pediatric brain tumors.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Man has dreamed of traveling to the brain for decades and, in fact, science fiction has dedicated books and films such as Isaac Asimov&#8217;s Fantastic Voyage.
