About GammaCan GammaCan develops innovative immunotherapy and related approaches to treat cancer. GammaCan's platform technology is based on IgGs, a safe, relatively non-toxic human plasma-based product used to treat a variety of immune deficiencies and autoimmune diseases. In cancer, IgG-based therapies work by strengthening the patient's immune system. Many experts currently view immunotherapy as a future alternative to chemotherapy. For more information about GammaCan, visit www.GammaCan.com. About VitiGam� VitiGam� is a first-in-class IgG-based anti-cancer immunotherapy being developed for the treatment of Stage III and Stage IV melanoma. GammaCan is planning to submit its Investigational New Drug Application (IND) for VitiGam� to the FDA in the near future. The Company is expecting to commence human clinical trials shortly thereafter. VitiGam� is an IgG-based product manufactured from the plasma of donors with Vitiligo, a benign skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. Studies have shown that this "enriched" IgG formulation contains potent anti-melanoma activity. Based on these studies, GammaCan expects VitiGam� to provide both, specific anti-melanoma activity (directed against melanoma cells), and non-specific anti-cancer activity.
