Founder & CEO of Amplexd Therapeutics, Co-Inventor of Two Non-Invasive Early Cervical Cancer Treatments. Alia Rahman is the founder of Amplexd Therapeutics, an early-stage biotech company that has developed two novel, non-invasive treatments for HPV-induced cervical dysplasia, the precursor to cervical cancer. In 2007, Alia was herself diagnosed with cervical dysplasia. After undergoing a traumatic surgery and continuing to have dysplasia, she set out on a mission to develop a non-invasive therapy. In her kitchen, she combined two active ingredients and treated herself, resulting in her first normal screening in over a decade. This finding formed the basis of Amplexd. Amplexd has developed and patented two treatments: an intravaginal suppository and photodynamic therapy system as alternatives to “watch and wait” and invasive surgery, addressing all stages of dysplasia. Alia’s hopes are two-fold: to make non-invasive, low-cost treatments readily accessible to women all over the globe, where screening and treatment options are often scarce; and secondly, to see non-invasive therapies become the norm in dysplasia-care and gynecology more broadly. Alia holds a BASc in Engineering from the University of Waterloo and currently resides in Montreal, Canada. Alia is a multi-time medtech founder.
