The Company is preparing a series of in vitro studies to test its DuraCAR cells in both immunosuppressive and in tumor-killing experiments. The experiments to explore whether these cells have an immunosuppressive effect include mixing the DuraCAR cells with activated immune cells that are designed to kill target tumor cells and to determine if these cells suppress this killing. In addition, the same experiments will be able to determine if the DuraCAR cells have a direct effect on killing tumors cells.

"We have designed a set of sophisticated experiments that test two hypotheses" says Dr. David Koos, Chairman and CEO of the company. "We have selected a CRO with excellent credentials and we expect the results to lay a clear path forward for this program."
