Pozdrav svima,
da sam trebala ovu temu da postavim pre godinu dana (isti naslov) , ne bih se usudila jer me je uzasavala i sama pomisao na ovu bolest. Zivela sam u uverenju da su ljudi koji imaju vitiligo u vecoj opasnosti da obole od raka koze od drugih.Medjutim poslednja vitiligo konferencija je iznela najnovija istazivanja vezana za ovu temu.
ovde je originalan tekst:

GammaCan Participates in 2006 Vitiligo Support National Conference; Company Joins Community in Exploring Treatment Alternatives, Pathology, New Research, Autoimmune Diseases and the Potential of Assisting in the Treatment of Malignant Melanoma

07.26.06, 7:33 AM ET

GammaCan International (OTC BB:GCAN) today announced that Patrick Schnegelsberg, CEO, participated at and presented at the 2006 Vitiligo Support National Conference held at the Hilton Universal City near Los Angeles in California from July 14th through the 16th.

The conference featured individuals with vitiligo, physicians and other experts in vitiligo treatments, pathology, new research, autoimmune diseases and more.

"GammaCan is aiming at becoming actively involved and work with the vitiligo community. In addition, we are exploring if we could be in a position to provide needed options to the vitiligo community while at the same time assisting patients suffering from metastatic malignant melanoma. VitiGam, an innovative anti-cancer product designed to treat Stage III and IV melanoma, may play a role here," stated Patrick Schnegelsberg.

About VitiGam:

VitiGam is GammaCan's second generation intravenous IgG-based product and a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy. GammaCan plans on having VitiGam enter phase I/II testing under a US IND in the near future after recently holding a pre-IND meeting with the FDA. VitiGam is being designed to target metastatic melanoma patients with Stage III and IV melanoma. VitiGam is an IgG product that is different from standard IgGs: It is manufactured from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. GammaCan scientists have shown that this "enriched" vitiligo IgG (VitiGam) contains potent anti-melanoma activity in both in vitro and mouse xenograft melanoma models. Thus, GammaCan expects VitiGam to provide (1) anti-melanoma activity directed specifically against malignant melanoma cells and (2) non-specific anti-cancer activity - as is the case with IgG in general.

About Vitiligo Support International:

Vitiligo Support International, the largest vitiligo organization in the world, is a global community organization committed to supporting those affected by vitiligo, raising awareness, promoting research, and discussing effective treatments until a cure is found. Their website is at www.VitiligoSupport.org

About GammaCan:

GammaCan is focusing on the commercialization of an innovative anti-cancer immunotherapy to treat metastatic cancer. GammaCan's platform is based on IVIg, a safe, relatively non-toxic human plasma-based product, currently used to treat a variety of immune deficiencies and autoimmune diseases. IVIg works by strengthening the patient's immune system. Many experts currently view immunotherapy as a future alternative to today's standard chemotherapy. GammaCan is developing VitiGam, its second generation program. VitiGam is an IVIg derived from the plasma of vitiligo donors and is being developed to treat malignant melanoma. GammaCan owns, and has applied for US patent protection covering the use of IVIg and vitiligo-derived IVIg (VitiGam).

Safe Harbor Statement:

Statements in this document that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this release include statements regarding the commercialization of an anti-cancer immunotherapy and the Company developing the boosting of cancer patients' immune systems with IVIg into an effective treatment. Actual outcomes and the Company's actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include risks and uncertainties such as the inability to finance the planned development of the technology, unforeseen technical difficulties in developing the technology, the inability to obtain regulatory approval for human use, competitors' therapies proving more effective, cheaper or otherwise preferable for consumers, inability to market the product we produce, among other factors, all of which could among other things, delay or prevent product release or cause our company to fail. For further risk factors see the risk factors associated with other early state medical research and development companies filed with the SEC on Edgar.
