Highlights from the presentation include:

Declining PSA levels in treated patients
Declining circulating tumor cell (CTC) count in treated patients
Actinium-225 radiolabeled J591 well-tolerated with preliminary evidence of efficacy in a heavily pre-treated patient population
Actinium-225 radiolabeled J591 safe at tested dosage
Phase 2 trial underway
Neal Shore, MD, FACS a well-known key opinion leader in prostate cancer research, Medical Director for the Carolina Urologic Research Center and recent addition to the Company’s Advisory Board, stated, "The Phase I trial results of the 225Ac-J591 antibody for these advanced prostate cancer patients, who had extensive tumor burden as well as having experienced numerous life prolonging therapies, are impressive, both from a response and safety standpoint. PSA declines and CTC responses were clearly evident. Additionally, this novel antibody conjugate demonstrated very good tolerability during this DLT phase 1 trial. The unique properties of 225Ac-J591 suggest it as a very promising candidate for combination treatment with beta emitters, whereby the synergy of therapeutic isotope combination and broader tumor effect would have the potential to further shape theragnostic platforms."
