ASX RELEASE 21 July
2015 RESIGNATION OF CEO
The Board of Directors of Novogen Limited (the
Board) wishes to advise that it has accepted the resignation of its Chief Executive Officer and Director, Dr Graham Kelly, effective today
Dr Kelly has decided to leave the Company to resume his work in non-oncology based early stage research. During his time as Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer, Dr Kelly has shown great commitment and energy in ensuring that Novogen is in a sound financial position with three drug candidates on track to enter Phase 1 clinical trials in 2016/17.
Dr Kelly said, I am satisfied that I am leaving the Company in
a very sound position. The Company is well placed now to proceed into the clinic with its 3 oncology drug candidates. It doesnt require me to steer it from here. My particular interest and skills are in early-stage drug development, and I now
want to focus on that. The Board wishes Dr Kelly well in
his future endeavours. An announcement regarding the steps that
Novogen will take to fill this role will be made in the near future. |
About Novogen
Novogen is
a public, Australian-US drug development company whose shares trade on both The Australian Securities Exchange (NRT) and NASDAQ (NVGN). The Novogen group includes US-based, CanTx Inc, a joint venture company with Yale University. Novogen has two
drug technology platforms (the super-benzopyrans (SBPs) and anti-tropomyosins (ATMs)) yielding drug candidates that are first-in-class with potential application across a range of cancers. Given the encouraging data from in vitro and in vivo

programs. Ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, malignant ascites, prostate cancer, neural cancers (glioblastoma, neuroblastoma in children) and melanoma are the potential clinical indications being pursued, with the ultimate objective of employing
both technologies as a unified approach to therapy.
