Toronto, Ontario – September 4, 2015, Theralase Technologies Inc. (“Theralase” or the “Company”) (TLT:TSXV) (TLTFF:OTC), a leading biotechnology manufacturer focused on commercializing medical technologies to eliminate pain and destroy cancer, announced today that it has demonstrated initial stability of its lead Photo Dynamic Compound (“PDC”), TLD-1433, currently being developed by the Company for the treatment of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (“NMIBC”). Demonstrating long term and accelerated stability of a drug to be used in human clinical testing is essential to prove that the potency and/or efficacy of the drug is not affected during prolonged shelf life. Under long term and accelerated stability storage conditions, the drug is evaluated by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (“HPLC”) to separate, identify and quantify each chemical component to a very high degree of resolution to assess if any changes occur in the chemical composition over time. Long term stability is completed over three years, with … Read More
