Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) CEO Note: Cancer Therapy Publication References Aethlon Medical

SAN DIEGO - April 22, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), today released the following note authored by its Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce.

When we initiated our first exosome research program, the medical community generally viewed these particles as nothing more than cellular debris with no biological function. In contrast, we believed that exosomes, also known as microvesicles or extracellular vesicles, suppressed the immune system of cancer patients and that stage of cancer progression correlated directly with quantity of exosomes in circulation. We envisioned the possibility that a medical device could eliminate circulating exosomes and combine to improve the benefit of established cancer therapies without adding drug toxicity.
Today, I am pleased to inform you that a team of researchers from Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital and University of Oxford have published a review article that validates the original rationale of our exosome research and further reinforces our future plan to submit an investigational device exemption (IDE) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that requests permission to initiate Hemopurifier® studies in cancer patients.
The article entitled: "Extracellular Vesicles: Emerging Targets for Cancer Therapy" is published in the current issue of the journal "Trends in Molecular Medicine".
The article reviews recent discoveries that have increased the understanding of extracellular vesicles (EV's) role in tumor development and progression, including immune suppression, angiogenesis, and metastasis. On the basis of this understanding, EV's have emerged to be targets for anticancer therapy. The article then discusses novel therapeutic strategies to target EVs to prevent tumor growth and spread. In this regard, Aethlon Medical is the only organization referenced based on our extracorporeal device strategy to target the elimination of exosomes from circulation of cancer patients.
The authors presented the following knowledge of EV's role is cancer progression:

• EV's suppress the immune response of cancer patients and also seem to display a multitude of actions that collectively function to suppress immune surveillance.
• The number of circulating EV's in cancer patients seems to be higher than in healthy individuals and has been found to correlate with poorF prognosis.
• EV's contribute to drug resistance during chemotherapy and strikingly, tumor-derived EV's seem capable of spreading drug resistance.
• EVs transport deleterious proteins and RNAs that are known to contribute to cancer development and progression.
• EV's promote angiogenesis, which allow tumors to create new blood vessels for survival.
• A striking feature of tumor-derived EVs is their potential to facilitate formation of the pre-metastatic niche at distant organ sites in preparation for future tumor metastasis.

The abstract of the article can be found online at: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24703619
The authors acknowledged that their work was supported by funding from The University of Oxford John Fell OUP Research Fund (M.J.A.W.) and The National Institutes of Health - National Cancer Institute (NIH-NCI).
About Aethlon Medical, Inc.

Biotech News Alert: Q & A Interview with C.E.O of Sunshine Biopharma (OTCQB: SBFM) Discussing Recent News of Improved Effectiveness of Lead Compound Adva-27a

New York, NY - Point Roberts, WA - April 14, 2014 (Investorideas.com Biotech Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including biotech and pharma, issues an exclusive Q&A interview with the CEO of Sunshine Biopharma Inc. ( OTCQB: SBFM ), a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer.

Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma shares insights into recent developments with the company’s lead compound, Adva-27a.
Interview:
Q: Investorideas.com
The company recently announced improved effectiveness of your lead compound Adva-27a. Can you explain to investors what the results were and what that means moving forward?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma
We resolved the two isomeric forms of our lead anticancer compound, Adva-27a, and as a result the specific activity of the drug candidate has increased 9.5-fold. We had previously announced that the concentration at which Adva-27a inhibited 50% of the activity of Topoisomerase II, an enzyme that cancer cells use to proliferate, (IC50) was 13.7 micromolar (see press release issued on October 5, 2011). As a result of this recent laboratory development Adva-27a’s IC50 has dropped 9.5-fold, to 1.44 micromolar.
This implies that significantly lower quantities of the drug can be used to achieve the same effect. In the long run, this could also mean lower therapeutic dosages for our future breast cancer and pancreatic cancer patients, which theoretically should result in reduced side-effects.
Q: Investorideas.com
Will this improved effectiveness apply to all the cancers you are targeting or just one specific target?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma
Yes, theoretically this improved effectiveness applies to all cancer types in which Adva-27a is effective.
Q: Investorideas.com
What triggered you toresolve the two isomeric forms of your lead anticancer compound, Adva-27a?.
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma
Resolving the isomeric forms of a lead compound is usually one of the matters addressed at the final stages of drug synthesis. Not all compounds have isomeric forms. Adva-27a happens to be a compound that does, owing to the presence of a carbohydrate moiety which is important for the anticancer activity of the molecule.
Q: Investorideas.com
You announced in late January that the company is now targeting pancreatic cancer as a second indication for Adva-27a, what is the significance of a second indication?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma
Pancreatic cancer has an extremely poor prognosis. Most pancreatic cancer patients will die within one year of diagnosis. Cancer of the pancreas is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. Recently, the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network released a special report entitled, ‘The Alarming Rise of Pancreatic Cancer Deaths in the United States: Why We Need to Stem the Tide Today’. The alarming findings presented in the report included the fact that by the year 2020, and possibly as early as 2015, pancreatic cancer will move from the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths to the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. It is the aggressive nature and lack of effective therapy that lead us to apply Adva-27a for use against pancreatic cancer.
About Adva-27a
Adva-27a is Sunshine Biopharma's lead anticancer compound, a small molecule that has recently been shown to be effective at killing multidrug resistant breast cancer cells, small-cell lung cancer cells, uterine sarcoma cells and pancreatic cancer cells (Published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, Volume 32, Pages 4423-4432, October 2012). Adva-27a is currently in the IND-Enabling stage of development. The original U.S. patent covering Adva-27a was issued on August 7, 2012 under U.S. patent number 8,236,935.
About Sunshine Biopharma Inc. ( OTCBB: SBFM )
Sunshine Biopharma is an early stage pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer. Sunshine Biopharma recently announced that it has initiated IND-Enabling studies for its lead antitumor compound, Adva-27a, which is currently targeted for multidrug resistant cancer.

Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) Note: U.S. Clinical Progression

SAN DIEGO - April 9, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), today released the following note authored by its Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce.

In the coming months, we plan to initiate the first FDA approved study of Hemopurifier® therapy in the United States. Historically, U.S. clinical progression of extracorporeal devices directed toward a single disease indication has been a proven model for value creation.
Our clinical objectives are a bit more ambitious as we aim to navigate Hemopurifier® therapy into both cancer and infectious disease indications. Yes, we plan to file an investigational device exemption (IDE) to treat cancer later this year. We are also investigating Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) opportunities based on our broad-spectrum bioterror and pandemic threat data and have begun to explore Humanitarian Use Device (HUD) pathways for orphan conditions that affect fewer than 4,000 individuals in the U.S. each year.
To support the breadth of our long-term therapeutic vision, we often encounter challenging decisions. As an example, we recently disclosed a clinical relationship with DaVita Clinical Research, which required a lengthy process to establish and thus contributed to delay the initiation of our hepatitis c virus (HCV) feasibility study. However, the resulting relationship transitioned our potential clinical footprint from a single-site institute to an institute with more than 250 clinical sites to support long-term regulatory objectives.
Since crossing the threshold of having the FDA clear our candidate therapy for human studies, our therapeutic focus has been honed toward clinical progression to support future registration of Hemopurifier® therapy in the United States. The protocol of our forthcoming feasibility study calls for the enrollment of ten HCV-infected end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who have not received HCV drug therapy for at least 30 days. The protocol includes a control phase which consists of three consecutive standard dialysis treatments during week one followed by the inclusion of our Hemopurifier® for a total of six treatments administered during weeks two and three. The rate of adverse events observed during the Hemopurifier® treatment phase will be compared to the rate experienced during the control phase. Per-treatment changes of viral load will be observed through PCR analysis and we will also quantitate HCV viral copies captured within the Hemopurifier® during each treatment session. Successful completion of the feasibility study will set the stage for us to conduct pivotal efficacy studies required for Hemopurifier® market clearance. The study will also contribute data toward the human safety challenge requirement to advance the Hemopurifier® as a broad-spectrum countermeasure against viral bioterror and pandemic threats, whose lethality do not allow for the administration of clinical efficacy studies. Based on our experience conducting a similar protocol overseas, we are cautiously optimistic.
In closing, it is our sincere hope to reward shareholders whose support never wavered, even in the face of material setbacks and the clinical uncertainty of whether FDA would permit Hemopurifier® studies in the United States. As a result of this support, we have an opportunity to advance our therapeutic platform into a wide-range of life-threatening disease conditions.

Biotech News Alert: Sunshine Biopharma (OTCQB: SBFM) Increases the Effectiveness of Adva-27a Lead Compound 9.5-Fold Against Breast and Pancreatic Cancer in Vitro

Montreal, Quebec - April 7, 2014 (Investorideas.com Biotech Newswire) Sunshine Biopharma Inc. (OTCQB: SBFM), a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer today announced that it has resolved the two isomeric forms of its lead anticancer compound, Adva-27a, and as a result the specific activity of the drug candidate has increased 9.5-fold. Sunshine Biopharma had previously announced that the concentration at which Adva-27a inhibited 50% of the activity of Topoisomerase II (IC50) was 13.7 micromolar (see press release issued on October 5, 2011). As a result of today's development Adva-27a's IC50 has dropped 9.5-fold, to 1.44 micromolar. This implies that significantly lower quantities of the drug can be used to achieve the same effect.

"Isomeric forms of a compound refer to the fact that the compound has different arrangements of its atoms in space," said Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma. "Isomeric forms do not have identical properties. In the case of Adva-27a, the molecule exists in the alpha or beta form. This is a lot like a person's left hand and right hand. While the two hands look identical, they actually are not. They are mirror images of each other but are not superimposable. The fact that they are not superimposable means that they are not identical. Similarly, the alpha and beta forms of Adva-27a are not superimposable. The implications of all of this for our future breast cancer and pancreatic cancer patients are lower therapeutic dosages, which theoretically should result in reduced side-effects."
About Adva-27a
Adva-27a is Sunshine Biopharma's lead anticancer compound, a small molecule that has recently been shown to be effective at killing multidrug resistant breast cancer cells, small-cell lung cancer cells, uterine sarcoma cells and pancreatic cancer cells (Published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, Volume 32, Pages 4423-4432, October 2012). Adva-27a is currently in the IND-Enabling stage of development. The original U.S. patent covering Adva-27a was issued on August 7, 2012 under U.S. patent number 8,236,935. The Company is planning a Phase I clinical trial of Adva-27a for pancreatic cancer in parallel to the Phase I clinical trial of Adva-27a for multidrug resistant breast cancer to be conducted at McGill University's Jewish General Hospital in Montreal (Canada).

Biotech News Alert: MANAGEMENT OF SUNSHINE BIOPHARMA (OTCQB: SBFM) ALARMED BY THE RECENT WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION REPORT THAT CANCER IS ON THE RISE

Montreal, Quebec, Canada - March 31, 2014 (Investorideas.com Biotech Newswire) Sunshine Biopharma Inc. (OTCQB: SBFM), a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer has issued a response to the recently released reports by the World Health Organization and the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.

"We are very pleased with the progress we have made thus far in our efforts to re-domicile the Company in Canada," said Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma. "We are anxious to complete the re-domiciling process as we have attendant growth and financing opportunities that we believe are available to us once we have completed this action. This is important for the Company’s business strategy overall and for our Adva-27a anticancer drug candidate as we advance towards clinical trials for multidrug resistant breast cancer and pancreatic cancer."
According to "World Cancer Report 2014" issued in February by the World Health Organization, cancer is on the rise and has become a leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for 8.2 million deaths in 2012. Lung cancer accounted for 1.59 million deaths and breast cancer represented half a million deaths. The report also says that cancer cases are expected to rise significantly, "It is expected that annual cancer cases will rise from 14 million in 2012 to 22 million within the next two decades."
Additionally the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network released a special report entitled "The Alarming Rise of Pancreatic Cancer Deaths in the United States: Why We Need to Stem the Tide Today". The report noted that "T(t)he alarming findings presented in the report include the fact that by the year 2020, and possibly as early as 2015, pancreatic cancer will move from the fourth leading cause of cancer death to the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States."
"We are alarmed and impassioned by these trends to move vigorously ahead with our clinical development of Adva-27a for aggressive forms of cancer," said Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma. "The Company is planning a Phase I clinical trial of Adva-27a for pancreatic cancer in parallel to the Phase I clinical trial of Adva-27a for multidrug resistant breast cancer to be conducted at McGill University's Jewish General Hospital in Montreal (Canada)."
Sunshine Biopharma recently reported that it has initiated the construction of mouse xenograft models for pancreatic cancer as part of the plans of positioning Adva-27a for clinical development for pancreatic cancer in parallel with multidrug resistant breast cancer. Adva-27a is Sunshine Biopharma's lead anticancer compound, a small molecule that has recently been shown to be effective at killing multidrug resistant breast cancer cells, small-cell lung cancer cells, uterine sarcoma cells and pancreatic cancer cells (Published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, Volume 32, Pages 4423-4432, October 2012). Adva-27a is currently in the IND-Enabling stage of development. The original U.S. patent covering Adva-27a was issued on August 7, 2012 under U.S. patent number 8,236,935.
