Cell>Point acquires
Oligosaccharide Conjugate License — 6|3|05
HOUSTON, Texas - June 3, 2005 -
Cell>Point obtained the worldwide patent and
technology license to Oligosaccharide Conjugates
for Dual Imaging and Radio/Chemotherapy
developed at The University of Texas M. D.
Anderson Cancer Center. This novel technology is
facilitating the development of combination
modality diagnostic imaging agents and new
combination radio/chemotherapeutic agents for
use in oncology, cardiology, neuroendocrinology
and infectious diseases. The imaging agents will
be used in SPECT/CT and PET/CT. These
combination agents should shorten the time the
patient has to spend in the imaging session.
This dual agent technology is also facilitating
the development of targeted
radio/chemotherapeutic agents. The objective is
for the medical oncologist/radiation oncologist
to be able to administer targeted radiotherapy
and chemotherapy at the same time in a single
dose to the patient. Since this technology also
uses Cell>Point EC Technology, the combination
of the two technologies should make a very
versatile imaging/therapy platform.
