Date: Monday, December 7, 2015
Presentation Time: 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time
Location: Hall A, Orange County Convention Center
The poster will highlight results from Bio-Path’s Phase I and Ib clinical trials in patients with blood cancers, notably the complete remission (CR) of one patient with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who was treated with BP-100-1.01 in combination with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) chemotherapy and another patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) who showed significant reduction (81 percent to 5 percent) in bone marrow blasts. The results suggest possible disease inhibition with BP-100-1.01 treatment.
