MetaStat, a life science company focused on treating systemic metastasis, is focused on becoming an industry leader in the emerging field of personalized cancer therapy. Its proprietary platform technologies are the result of more than 15 years of collaboration with Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cornell University, and Italy’s IFO-Regina Elena Cancer Institute.
Metastatic cancer is the term given to cancer that has spread from where it first started to another place in the body. With 90% of all solid tumor cancer deaths due to metastasis, it is well understood that the medical community desperately needs the next-generation diagnostic and therapeutic products MetaStat specializes in developing.

Lau, founder and CEO of MetaStat, founded two other successful companies that currently list on the NYSE MKT and NASDAQ exchanges. The company’s chief medical officer, Oscar Bronsther, M.D., is a Diplomat, American Board of Surgery; the Chairman, Section of General Surgery, at Inova Fairfax Hospital; and a Clinical Professor of Surgery at George Washington University in Washington, D.C.
