Aethlon Medical provides update on planned Phase 1 trial of Hemopurifier

Aethlon Medical provided the following update on its planned phase 1 safety, feasibility and dose-finding clinical trials of its Hemopurifier in patients with solid tumors who have stable or progressive disease during anti-PD-1 monotherapy treatment, such as Keytruda or Opdivo. “We continue to make progress preparing for our planned, safety, feasibility and “dose finding” oncology trials in Australia and India, and want to provide our shareholders and other constituents with an update,” stated Steven LaRosa, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Aethlon Medical. “In early May, we announced new data showing the in vitro removal of exosomes from cancer patient plasma using a miniature version of our Hemopurifier. This data has been quickly integrated into the required documentation for Ethics Committees at our potential clinical sites. On May 17, 2024, we provided these documents to the Contract Research Organizations for these planned clinical trials. Subsequently, on May 24, 2024, one potential site submitted the documents to its Ethics Board. An additional site in Australia and another in India are currently assembling the packages for submission to their Ethics Committees.”
