Symposium and Panel Discussion on Nymox's Fexapotide To Be Held at American Urological Association North Central Section Annu...
November 10 2017 - 10:30AM
Nymox Pharmaceutical Corporation (NASDAQ:NYMX) is pleased to report
that a Symposium on Fexapotide Triflutate studies will be held at
the Annual Meeting of the American Urological Association North
Central Section, in Scottsdale AZ next week. The symposium,
“Fexapotide Triflutate: Long-Term BPH Studies 2009-2017” will be
chaired by Mohamed Bidair MD of San Diego CA. The other panel
members at the Symposium will be Alan Hay MD FACS of Salem OR,
Stephen Richardson MD of Salt Lake City UT, and Barton Wachs MD of
Long Beach CA.
Nymox's lead drug Fexapotide has been in
development for over 10 years and has been tested by expert
clinical trial investigative teams in over 70 distinguished
clinical trial centers throughout the US, and has been found after
7 years of prospective placebo controlled double blind studies of
treatment of 995 U.S. men with prostate enlargement to not only
show clinically meaningful and durable relief of BPH symptoms, but
also to show a major reduction in the incidence of prostate cancer,
compared to placebo and compared to the known and expected normal
incidence of the disease. The same clinical program has also shown
in a long-term blinded placebo crossover group study an 82-95%
reduction in the number of these patients who required surgery
after they received crossover Fexapotide in the trial, as compared
to patients who did not receive Fexapotide but instead received
crossover conventional approved BPH treatments (p<.0001).
The Symposium will present detailed clinical
data on the Phase 3 clinical trials that have been completed for
Fexapotide and that have shown excellent safety and significant
efficacy for the treatment of BPH. In addition, scientific data
supporting the safety and efficacy from non-clinical and laboratory
testing and analysis will be demonstrated. The main presentation
will be followed by a panel discussion and by an interactive
question and answer session with the specialist doctors in
attendance.
