OREANDA-NEWS. ValiRx Plc, a life science company, which focuses on clinical stage cancer therapeutic development, taking proprietary & novel technology for precision medicines towards commercialisation and partnering, is pleased to provide an update on recent presentations.
A presentation, in the form of a poster, was given by the Company and its Principle Clinical Investigator at the prestigious European Society for Medical Oncology ("ESMO") Conference on Monday, 10 October 2016 in Copenhagen.

The presentation provided data from the Company's "First-in-human (FIH) phase I/II, dose escalation and pharmacokinetic (PK) study to show the safety and tolerability of VAL201 in patients with advanced prostate cancer and other advanced solid tumours."

The poster showed early indications of efficacy in advanced prostate cancer with no drug-related serious adverse events recorded, as was previously announced via RNS on 13 September 2016.  The study continues with expansion into other tumour types.  An Endometriosis trial is also being planned.

The Company also recently gave presentations to investors at the Shares Investor Evening in Edinburgh on Wednesday, 5 October 2016 and at the Proactive Investor One2One Forum in Mayfair, London on Thursday, 6 October 2016.
