Business Wire
MabCure, Inc. (OTCBB:MBCI) (“MabCure”), a biotechnology company
using its proprietary technology to create highly specific
monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) for the early detection of cancer,
today announced that it has recently completed a private placement
in the aggregate amount of $1 million. The amount is comprised of a
$500,000 cash investment and the conversion of a $500,000 bridge
loan that was made in September 2009, into equity securities
(together, the “Investment Transactions”).
Under the terms of the Investment Transactions, MabCure will
issue 2,000,000 units to the investors at a price of $0.50 per
unit. Each unit consists of: (i) one share of MabCure common stock;
(ii) one two-year non-transferable common stock purchase warrant
exercisable at a price of US$0.60 per share; and (iii) one two-year
non-transferable common stock purchase warrant exercisable at a
price of US$0.70 per share.
The new investment capital will be used by MabCure to pursue its
clinical trials in Europe and Asia. Clinical trials to diagnose
ovarian cancer are already underway after MabCure signed a clinical
research agreement with the Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol
University in Bangkok, Thailand. The study aims to evaluate
MabCure’s panel of anti-ovarian MAbs in diagnosing ovarian cancer
in the blood and urine of patients suspected of having the
disease.
Dr. Amnon Gonenne, MabCure’s president and CEO commented, “We
are very pleased to close this private placement and to convert our
bridge loan into equity securities, particularly during challenging
times for raising private equity. The funds will provide us with
the near-term liquidity we need to sustain our clinical trials
program and to grow the business.”
About MabCure
MabCure is a biotechnology company whose vision is to change the
perception of cancer as being a largely incurable disease. MabCure
owns proprietary technology for the creation of unique and highly
specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) which will be developed as
diagnostic tools, imaging agents and drugs to treat lethal cancers.
MabCure’s initial goal is to develop its novel MAbs as diagnostic
tools for the detection of ovarian and prostate cancers at an early
stage, when these diseases are still localized and highly curable.
