Dr. Denis-Claude Roy at Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital in Montreal, commented: "After more then five years of clinical research, we believe that our results demonstrate that Reviroc is able to improve patient survival. This is potentially a breakthrough achievement for patients suffering from Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma as well as their families."
About Reviroc
Reviroc is being developed as a treatment that eliminates blood cancer cells from autologous transplants for patients with end stage blood cancer. An autologous transplant uses the patient's own bone marrow to serve as a graft. Bone marrow transplantations are broadly recognized as a treatment option for patients suffering from blood cancers, such as leukemia and lymphoma. Reviroc has been developed to remove residual tumor cells from the graft.
