CEL-SCI Corporation Responds to Inquiries About the Status of Its Tuberculosis Program
ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Numerous new items around the country today report that multiple drug resistant Tuberculosis (TB), which is difficult or impossible to treat, is on the rise. In fact, 1 in 10 TB cases worldwide resists common treatment. TB kills about 3 million people a year. Apparently in response to these reports, CEL-SCI CORPORATION (Amex:HIV) has received many inquiries in regard to the status of its TB program.
CEL-SCI's L.E.A.P.S. vaccine/treatment against TB has produced promising results, showing potential efficacy against multiple strains of TB, including multiple drug resistant strains. Published findings with CEL-SCI's L.E.A.P.S. TB vaccine/treatment showed that the antibodies induced by CEL-SCI's vaccine/treatment recognize various TB strains much better than antibodies produced by conventional technology. Those strains included two multiple drug resistant strains and five drug resistant strains of the type that infect healthy individuals and six species of mycobacteria that infect primarily immunocompromised patients (e.g. AIDS). CEL-SCI's findings may lead to the design of a TB vaccine/treatment which would be effective against multiple strains of TB, including multiple drug resistant strains. Research is continuing to optimize the immune responses to CEL-SCI's TB vaccine/treatment. The L.E.A.P.S. vaccine/treatment technology was recently shown to prevent herpes simplex infection in mice.
CEL-SCI Corporation is a pioneer in the field of natural immunotherapy. The Company is developing immune based treatments for cancer, AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and herpes simplex.
