Provectus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCBB: PVCT, http://www.pvct.com),
a development-stage oncology and dermatology biopharmaceutical company,
announces that data from its Phase 2 study of PV-10 for metastatic
melanoma will be presented at the HemOnc Today - Melanoma and Cutaneous
Malignancies Conference on April 13, 2012.
Professor Merrick Ross, M.D. of the MD Anderson Cancer Center in
Houston, Texas, is scheduled to present at the HemOnc Today Conference
in New York City. His presentation, entitled "Update on Intralesional
Ablative Therapies" will begin at 1:55 p.m. EDT. Included in his
discussion will be information about PV-10's Phase 2 studies, for which
he is a Principal Investigator.
Dr. Craig Dees, PhD, CEO of Provectus said, "This is an exciting time
for Provectus as we continue our development of PV-10, and make
preparations for our pivotal Phase 3 study design. We expect Dr. Ross's
presentation will give additional information about the Phase 2 trial of
PV-10 for metastatic melanoma, and specifically, its systemic effect.
This information, in concert with the recent immunology data presented
at the Society of Surgical Oncology, we believe, will provide more
insight to the medical community about the role that PV-10 can play in
combating metastatic melanoma."
