PR Newswire (US)
TUSTIN, Calif., Dec. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AMDL, Inc.
(AMEX:ADL), developer and marketer of tests for the early detection
of cancer and other serious diseases, announced today that Mercy
Bio Technology Co., Ltd., has received Department of Health
approval to market DR-70(R), AMDL's non-invasive cancer blood test
kit, in Taiwan. Cancer is the leading cause of death in Taiwan,
with one of every four deaths attributable to this disease. The
smoking rate in Taiwan is high and pollution from industry is
significant. The Taiwanese government has launched major cancer
control programs to prevent or control the more common cancers and
has instituted large community cancer-screening programs. "There is
an enormous awareness of cancer in Taiwan and major efforts are
underway to combat this disease. DR-70(R) can play a huge role in
this effort. We believe that we have chosen an excellent
distributor with qualified marketing and technical expertise for
this important task," said Gary Dreher, AMDL President & CEO.
About AMDL AMDL, Inc. (AMEX:ADL), headquartered in Tustin,
California, is a theranostics company, involved in the detection
and treatment of the same disease, cancer. AMDL is the inventor,
developer and worldwide marketer through exclusive distribution
agreements of the DR-70(R) non-invasive cancer blood test, which
has demonstrated its ability to detect the presence in humans of up
to 14 cancers 84 percent of the time overall. Clinical trials of
DR-70(R) have been conducted in China, Canada, Taiwan and Turkey.
Cancers that can be detected are colon, breast, stomach, liver,
rectal, ovarian, cervical, esophageal, thyroid, pancreatic,
trophoblastic and malignant lymphoma. DR-70(R) can detect many
kinds of cancer using a single tube of blood, eliminating the need
for costly, multiple tests. AMDL also owns a combination immunogene
therapy technology that is a possible treatment for those already
diagnosed with cancer and could eventually be used as a vaccine to
protect patients known to be at risk because of a family history
for certain types of cancer. The combination therapy both builds
the body's immune system and destroys cancer cells. More
