Dr. Butler has extensive regulatory experience with pharmaceutical and biotech companies, and in particular in advancing cancer drug development and women's health.

"We are very excited to have George on board as we move into a new phase of the regulatory process with our advancing clinical trial programs," said Isaac Cohen, O.M.D., Bionovo's Chairman and CEO. He added, "George led the development of hormonal drugs for breast cancer as prior head of global regulatory affairs at Astra Zeneca, making him a perfect fit with our platform at Bionovo in women's health and cancer."

Dr. Butler says, "I believe the exciting pipeline of Bionovo will attract the interest of large Pharma in deals for the individual compounds or perhaps a larger deal for the entire oncology pipeline.
