Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT:PVCT, http://www.pvct.com), a clinical-stage oncology and dermatology biopharmaceutical company (“Provectus” or the “Company”), today announced that it had extended for an additional 60 days its Memorandum of Understanding with with Sinopharm-China State Institute of Pharmaceutical Industry ("Sinopharm-CSIPI"), the leader among all pharmaceutical research institutes in China, and Sinopharm A-THINK Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Sinopharm A-THINK"), the only injectable anti-tumor drug research and development, manufacture and distribution integrated platform within Sinopharm Group. The extension was the only change to the agreement, and the MOU is now in force through July 15, 2015.
The original MOU was signed in August 2014, and since then, the parties have sought to enter into a definitive licensing agreement, subject to additional negotiation, due diligence, and any required regulatory and corporate approvals. The original MOU was to be in effect for 90 days, and in November 2014 it was extended through May 16, 2015.
Since the signing of the MOU, management of Provectus and senior personnel at Sinopharm-CSIPI and Sinopharm A-THINK have held numerous conference calls, have met face-to-face in both China and the US, and Chinese scientists on staff at Sinopharm have discussed in person PV-10 and its clinical results with the lead investigators at St. Luke’s University Hospital and Health Network and Moffitt Cancer Center.
Dr. Craig Dees, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of Provectus stated, “We remain optimistic that a definitive licensing agreement with our Chinese partners can be achieved. The extra time is needed to ensure that nothing in the agreement undermines the legal position of Provectus or Sinopharm under Chinese or American law, and to ensure that the timetable for all deliverables is realistic – and clearly defined taking into account the regulations regarding new drug applications under the Chinese regulatory system.”
Dr. Zhidan Jia, Chief Executive Officer of Sinopharm A-THINK, said, “We believe that the original terms of the MOU are still in our best interests and those of our partners at Provectus, and we took great comfort from the opening of enrollment for the phase 3 trial for the use of PV-10 as a treatment for melanoma. We believe that the next 60 days will be productive, and that both sides will be content with the outcome.”
