(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 02/03/15 -- Med BioGene Inc. ("MBI" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: MBI) is pleased to provide the following report of the Company''s activities over the last four months for the benefit of shareholders and the investment community. Since our last letter to Shareholders on October 1st, 2014, there have been a number of developments of which shareholders should be made aware.
Summary:
After the September 17th, 2014 conference call with Precision Therapeutics Inc. ("PTI") to discuss its updated presentation summarizing its development plans for 2015, MBI was contacted by PTI''s management and informed that significant organizational changes were planned. These included the intention to rename PTI as Helomics®, the appointment of Dr. Neil Campbell as the new CEO, and the adoption of a very focused strategy designed to accelerate the commercialization of their range of prognostic genome-based products.
In early November, the renaming as Helomics® was formally announced, and Dr. Campbell became CEO. Soon after this, one of our Directors travelled to Pittsburgh and met with the Helomics® team. In the subsequent three months the Company''s Directors have met with Helomics® on a number of occasions, both in Pittsburgh and in San Francisco, and have also had a number of conversations to discuss matters of mutual interest. At the end of January, Helomics® and MBI had further discussions covering the following topics:
Commercialization of GeneFX Lung
