WHAT IS PHOTO DYNAMIC
==> picture [8 x 8] intentionally omitted <==
HOW PDT WORKS
==> picture [129 x 305] intentionally omitted <==
Photosensitizing 1 agent is taken (by mouth) or given (intravenously) The agent circulates through 2 the body and concentrates at the site of the tumour
Light of specific wavelengths is 3 shone on the body which activates the reaction in the tumour
The tumour is 4 selectively destroyed

EARLY STUDIES OF PHOTOSOFT[™] CONDUCTED IN AUSTRALIA
PHASE I | PROSTATE CANCER
2013
-
Photosoft™ was administered to 68 prostate cancer patients by Urologist Donald Murphy and collaborators
-
Results for 26 patients that had been treated for >6 months were reported at the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand meeting in Melbourne in April 2013
-
Half of patients had stable to decreasing PSA and half increasing PSA, while prostate size generally fell on assessment using diagnostic imaging
2017
-
A second Phase I was completed by Donald Murphy in collaboration with Monash University
-
Participants had localised treatment-naïve prostate cancer or were patients with local relapse
-
Photosoft™ was safe and well-tolerated
-
PSA levels were checked at three months post-treatment and found four of seven first-line patients registering stable PSA. None of the three relapse patients registered stable PSA.
-
A global reduction in prostate size was noted across the primary treatment group
-
A proteomics analysis of protein samples found in the urine of the patients found various immune-related biomarkers were upregulated, with high statistical significance (p<0.001)
