the tumor site, avoiding systemic side effects. DTS-301 is in Phase II clinical studies and was in-licensed from Protherics PLC (LSE: PTI / NASDAQ: PTIL).

-- DTS-201, a doxorubicin prodrug, increases the concentration of doxorubicin, a widely used cancer drug, at the tumor site by means of a reactivation mechanism specific to the tumor environment. DTS-201 has completed Phase I clinical studies in Belgium and France in Q2-07. Exclusive European rights for DTS-201 were in-licensed from Medarex Inc.

-- DTS-108 is a prodrug of SN-38, the active metabolite of the widely-used cancer drug irinotecan, and is based on Diatos' Vectocell(R) technology. DTS-108 aims to increase the efficacy of SN-38 while reducing the toxic effects of irinotecan. DTS-108 is in preclinical development.
