ABOUT CERUS
Cerus Corporation is a biomedical products company focused on
commercializing the INTERCEPT Blood System to enhance blood safety. The
INTERCEPT system is designed to reduce the risk of
transfusion-transmitted diseases by inactivating a broad range of
pathogens such as viruses, bacteria and parasites that may be present in
donated blood. The nucleic acid targeting mechanism of action enables
INTERCEPT treatment to inactivate established transfusion threats, such
as hepatitis B and C, HIV, West Nile virus and bacteria, and is designed
to inactivate emerging pathogens such as influenza, malaria and
dengue. Cerus currently markets and sells the INTERCEPT Blood System for
both platelets and plasma in Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent
States, the Middle East and selected countries in other regions around
the world. In the United States, Cerus is seeking regulatory approval of
the INTERCEPT Blood System for plasma, and is in discussion with FDA to
define the additional clinical data required for a regulatory submission
for the INTERCEPT Blood System for platelets. The INTERCEPT Blood System
for red blood cells is in clinical development. See http://www.cerus.com for
more information.
