Rexin cont'd

In a statement to the press, Dr. Frederick L. Hall, President and CEO of Epeius, stated "Whereas logistics had previously stymied the delivery of genetic medicine to target lesions within the human body, intravenous infusions of Rexin-G has stymied intractable cancers without collateral damage to normal organs." The results, compiled in these pioneering studies, had convinced the US FDA to grant Rexin-G orphan drug status for pancreatic cancer, and subsequently, to provide federal support to continue clinical trials using Rexin-G in the United States. Further, based on these studies, the Philippine Bureau of Food and Drugs recently granted Rexin-G accelerated marketing approval for the treatment of all chemotherapy-resistant tumor types.
