Anthony Hayes, CEO of AIkido
Pharma, stated, "As a rising tide lifts all boats, these results
indicate the strength of our prior investment in this technology
field. These early reports indicate there is strong evidence
that developing radioligand therapies have the potential to be an
alternative cancer treatment and provide positive outcomes for
patients with advanced prostate cancer. The Company's stock
price has been down recently, but we believe these positive results
from the Novartis Phase III study provides an incremental proof
point that reinforces our confidence in the radiopharmaceutical
space, PSMA and our investment in this technology. With
testing data for our technology expected in Q2 of this year, we are
excited about the results and the advancement of this
technology."
