Nigel Theobald, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented:

"We also now have the assay established to complete the dose response expression work for BCL-2, but we already know that BCL-2 must be expressed, as the cell apoptosis work has shown that it knocks down the gene to produce cell death."
