Future Development Plans
The Company intends to initiate its next SonoLysis clinical study in the second half of 2008. To avoid the inherent bleeding risk associated with tPA, the Company intends to conduct its future clinical trials under its SEDONA program, MRX-801 microbubbles and ultrasound, without tPA. Prior to commencing the trials, the Company intends to conduct its previously announced pre- clinical studies designed to further optimize the ultrasound delivery parameters.
"Concluding the TUCSON study ahead of schedule allows us early access to data and helps us to reduce our expenses," said Bradford A. Zakes, President and CEO of ImaRx Therapeutics. "We look forward to the continued advancement of our SonoLysis technology for stroke under our SEDONA program."
