HOUSTON,Texas-April1,2004 -Cell>Point L.L.C. completes clinical
pilot study on 99mTc-EC-Annexin V at The University of Texas M.D.
Anderson Cancer Center. The study evaluated the use of 99m
Tc-EC-Annexin V to assess tumor apoptosis (programmed cell death) in
patients with primary breast cancer and to detect and image treatment
related apoptosis in patients with primary breast cancer. The images
produced in the study exceeded the company’s expectations. By using
99mTc-EC-Annexin V, the oncologist will be able to detect cell death
much more quickly than current practice.
