PR Newswire (US)
NEW YORK, Jan. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pulmo BioTech Inc. has
completed a dual listing. The Company's shares are now listed on
the Frankfurt Borse (symbol PBO) in addition to the OTC BB
(OTC:PLMO) (BULLETIN BOARD: PLMO) . "The dual listing will play an
important role in the future development and financing of the
Company, bringing a substantial opportunity to investors outside of
the United States and Canada" - Garry McCann, CEO Pulmo BioTech
Inc. Pulmo BioTech's operational subsidiary, PulmoScience, is
planning Phase II Human Trials for its PulmoBind product candidate
for the Molecular Imaging of the vascular system of the lungs,
which will follow the successful completion of its Phase I trials.
The company intends to carry out European Phase II trials in
parallel with similar trials in the USA and Canada. The resulting
increased visibility in Europe will further raise the profile of
the company. About Pulmo BioTech Inc. Pulmo BioTech Inc.
specializes in the development and marketing of medical technology
and research. Our proven strengths combine extensive commercial
experience and academic credentials. The principal staff members
are acknowledged experts in their specialized fields, and work with
a broad range of investment institutions. Pulmo BioTech's mission
is to utilize scientific imagination and drive, together with
managerial and financial acumen, to bring innovative and profitable
products to the marketplace to the benefit of all stock holders.
About PulmoScience Inc. PulmoScience Inc. was established in 2006,
and is currently developing a non-invasive Molecular Imaging
technique for the diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism, Pulmonary
Hypertension and Lung Inflammatory diseases under the trade name
PulmoBind. The company was conceived within the Montreal Heart
Institute "MHI" (a world renowned hospital and educational
facility). Jointly owned by MHI's subsidiary, Innovacor, as the
technical and operational partner, Dr. Jocelyn Dupuis (the
scientific director and originator of the PulmoBind Molecular
Imaging technology), and by Pulmo BioTech Inc. as the funding
partner, PulmoScience Inc. aims to develop this unique and exciting
technology, to fund necessary trials, and to bring the products to
market. PulmoScience believes that the market for its product
candidates is worth in excess of $500 million per annum and that,
provided Regulatory Approval is achieved, the safety and efficacy
of its products could allow it to dominate that market. About
PulmoBind PulmoBind uses an intravenously delivered radionuclide
tagged molecule which specifically bonds to the inner walls of the
circulatory system in the lungs, and, by the use of an external
Gamma Camera, allows an image of the integrity of the blood vessels
throughout the lungs to be seen by a diagnostic clinician.
PulmoScience is currently undertaking Regulatory Approval for Phase
I Human Trials, and while subsequent results from additional tests
might not corroborate the current results, PulmoScience believes
that PulmoBind has the potential to dominate the market for the
diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism. In particular, this belief is
driven by PulmoScience's expectations of the improved safety and
efficacy that PulmoBind will offer when compared to the current
incumbent nuclear medicine based technology for the diagnosis of
Pulmonary Embolism. In addition, early indications are that
PulmoBind could be highly effective in the early stage diagnosis of
Pulmonary Hypertension, a condition for which there is no current
front line diagnostic test. The addressable market for the product
candidates being developed by PulmoScience is believed by the
company to be worth in excess of $500 million per annum.
