Theralase has developed patented anti-cancer Photo Dynamic Compounds (PDCs) that localize to cancer cell DNA and destroy it when activated by light, causing cell death with no observed side effects. Preclinical studies show PDC is up to 100,000 times more effective than FDA-approved drugs at killing various cancer cell types, including bladder cancer cells. Theralase plans to complete a Phase 1/2a human bladder cancer clinical trial in 2015 to validate PDC's safety and efficacy in humans. The goal is to then partner with a large pharmaceutical company in 2016 to commercialize PDC for bladder cancer treatment.
2. Company
Anti Cancer Platform TechnologyAnti Cancer Platform Technology
Patented anti‐cancer drugs known as Photo Dynamic Compounds (PDCs) localize to the DNA of cancer cells and
when light activated destroy the DNA resulting in natural cell death (apoptosis)
HighlightsHighlights
Up to 100% cancer cell kill at very low concentrations (< 0.8µM)
Virtually 0% toxicity at high concentrations (> 100µM) leading to very high safety profile
More effective at killing cancer cells than FDA approved drugs (668,000 x ALA, 198 x PHOTOFRIN)
No side effects were observed from treatment (quick evacuation of PDC from healthy cells and high light fluence
required for activation provides extremely high safety profile)
Ult l t i it PDC t bl d t (bl dd )Ultra low toxicity as PDC never enters blood stream (bladder cancer)
Water soluble & readily penetrates cellular membrane (DNA localizing)
Activated by laser light providing excellent specificity and selectivity
Lethal to cancer and bacteria
Able to treat solid core hypoxic tumours, such as: breast, prostate and lung
Research performed at world renowned Princess Margaret Cancer Centre
Activated at long wavelengths (allows deeper tumour destruction)
Issued USA Patents: 6,962,910, 7,612,057, 8,148,360, 8,445,475
Pending USA Patent Applications: 61/801,674, 13/863,089, PCT/US13/36595

Statistics
70,000 new cases, > 14,000 deaths in the US each year
386,000 new cases are diagnosed worldwide annually
Standard treatment unchanged with no new drugs approved since 1998
5th most common cancer, 4th in men, 8th in women
Most expensive cancer to treat with a recurrence rate up to 80%
70% of new bladder cancer cases are early stage disease and 90% of bladder cancers are Transitional Cell

Current Standard of Care
Early stage disease (Ta, T1): Trans Urethral Resection of the Bladder Tumour (TURBT) followed by treatment y g ( , ) ( ) y
with bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) – 5 year survival rate of 75%.
Mid Stage disease (T2, T3a/b): Entire bladder removed along with nearby reproductive organs and lymph
nodes in a procedure called a radical cystectomy ‐ 5 year survival rate of 31 to 63% depending on progression
of disease.
Late stage disease (T4): Disease has spread to distant sites, such as the bones, liver and lungs
and is generally regarded as incurable ‐ 5 year survival rate of 21%.
