TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / January 27, 2025 / Theralase® Technologies Inc. ("Theralase®" or the "Company") (TSXV:TLT)(OTCQB:TLTFF), a clinical stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to the research and development of light, radiation, sound and/or drug-activated small molecules and their formulations, intended for the safe and effective destruction of various cancers, bacteria and viruses is proud to announce that its interim clinical data has been selected for presentation at the American Urological Association ("AUA") Annual Meeting.
The Program Committee of the AUA has accepted the Theralase®'s abstract titled: "Interim Analysis of Light-Activated TLD-1433 in a Phase II Clinical Study of BCG-Unresponsive Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Carcinoma In-Situ" for presentation in a Podium Session at the 2025 Annual Meeting of the American Urological Association to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 26th to 29th.
The clinical data from Theralase®'s international, multicenter Phase II ("BCG")-Unresponsive Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer ("NMIBC") Carcinoma In-Situ ("CIS") study will be presented by principal investigator Dr. Girish Kulkarni in an oral presentation.
Pending regulatory approval, this innovative technology represents an opportunity for a significant advancement in bladder cancer treatment, by providing a safe and effective therapy for patients who have exhausted their standard of care therapeutic options and are now facing radical cystectomy (bladder removal).
The interim clinical data supports the high safety and efficacy of the treatment with a number of patients demonstrating a duration of response of 3 years or greater with a single treatment.
These findings support the use of light-activated Ruvidar™ by the urology community to safely and effectively treat patients inflicted with BCG-Unresponsive NMIBC, helping to revolutionize the treatment landscape for bladder cancer.
Girish Kulkarni, MD, PhD, FRCSC, a urologic surgeon in the Department of Surgical Oncology at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, University Health Network and Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto, Department of Surgery stated, "We are excited that our clinical study has been accepted for podium presentation at the American Urological Association. The early data is supportive of light-activated RuvidarTM, as a treatment modality for BCG-Unresponsive CIS of the bladder, thus enabling patients to preserve their bladders and maintain their quality of life."
Arkady Mandel, MD, PhD, DSc, Chief Scientific Officer, Theralase® stated, "In the interim clinical data, we have observed a strong safety and efficacy response in bladder cancer patients treated at numerous clinical study sites across Canada and the US. The data supports the use of light-activated Ruvidar™ in the treatment of patients with high-grade, high-risk NMIBC. In addition, the latest results demonstrate a long-lasting duration of complete response induced by this innovative technology, which is able to be completed within a few hours and is suitable for patients with CIS of the urinary bladder, who have not responded to previous therapies and who are currently facing a life-altering option, such as a radical cystectomy."
Roger DuMoulin-White, BSc, P.Eng, Pro.Dir, Chief Executive Officer, Theralase® stated, "The acceptance of the Theralase® abstract for podium presentation at the AUA Annual Meeting is a testament to the importance and significant impact that this clinical research could have on the lives of bladder cancer patients. We look forward to the presentation and the continued development of Ruvidar™ for patients in need. Patient enrollment is scheduled to be completed in 2025, with clinical data submission to Health Canada and the FDA in 2026. Pending successful regulatory approval, Theralase® plans to make this technology commercially available to the entire urological community in 2027."
