"We are very pleased with the progress of our ICT-107 registrational trial in the US, Canada and Europe," said Andrew Gengos, ImmunoCellular Chief Executive Officer. "We recently held our European investigator kick off meeting in Barcelona and had 100% attendance of investigators and coordinators from the 48 European clinical sites planning to participate in the trial. We are deeply appreciative of the support and enthusiasm expressed by our European colleagues, and their recognition of the importance and potential promise of the ICT-107 program, in light of the high unmet need and lack of new treatments for patients with brain cancer. We think that the ICT-107 program could be the best designed registrational program underway in newly diagnosed glioblastoma and look forward to announcing the treatment of our first patient."
