"I am pleased that we have accomplished this first step in making NanoTherm®
therapy available to brain tumor patients," said Dr. Peter Heinrich, CEO of
MagForce. "There have been many challenges associated with introducing a
completely new therapeutic approach to the medical community; therefore, the
initial rollout has taken longer than expected. Our sales team is active
throughout Germany and currently in discussion with leading medical institutions
to establish additional treatment centers. We are also working to make the
therapy internationally available."
Dr. Andreas Jordan, CSO and founder of MagForce added, "We are pursuing the
further development of NanoTherm® therapy for the treatment of prostate and
pancreatic carcinomas. NanoTherm® therapy has enormous therapeutic potential to
treat a variety of solid tumors, and we are just at the beginning."
