Adventrx To Develop ANX-188 For Complications Of Arterial Disease
Date:2/28/2013

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT: ANX) today announced its plans to develop ANX-188 in complications of arterial disease, initially as an adjunct to thrombolytics in acute limb ischemia (ALI), a complication of peripheral arterial disease.  Peripheral arterial disease affects an estimated 8 to 12 million people in the United States.

Arterial disease resulting from atherosclerotic and thromboembolic processes is a common circulatory problem in which plaque-obstructed arteries reduce the flow of blood to tissues.  Peripheral arterial disease refers to disease affecting arteries outside the brain and heart and often refers to blockage of arteries in the lower extremities.  Ischemic cerebrovascular infarction, or stroke, results from blockage of arteries to the brain, while myocardial infarction, or heart attack, results from blockage of arteries to the heart.  Thrombolytic agents, such as tPA (tissue plasminogen activator), commonly referred to as "clot busting" drugs, are used to treat acute complications of peripheral arterial disease, heart attack and stroke. 

R. Martin Emanuele , Senior Vice President, Development, said: "Data from experimental models demonstrate the potential for ANX-188, when used alone or in combination with thrombolytics, to improve outcomes for patients with thrombotic arterial disease, whether manifesting as acute limb ischemia, stroke or some other variant.  Studies in animals and humans suggest that ANX-188 can shorten time-to-thrombolysis, improve blood flow, delay re-occlusion and reduce reperfusion injury, each of which may improve the effectiveness of existing thrombolytic agents." 

Santosh Vetticaden, Chief Medical Officer, said: "We plan to evaluate the potential of ANX-188 in arterial disease initially by evaluating it in acute limb ischemia.&#
