Toronto, Ontario – April 4, 2017 Theralase Technologies Inc. (“Theralase®” or the “Company”) (TLT: TSXV) (TLTFF: OTC), a leading biotech company focused on the commercialization of medical devices to eliminate pain and the development of Photo Dynamic Compounds (“PDCs”) to destroy cancer, announced today that the first patient was treated on March 30, 2017 for Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder (“NMIBC”) cancer using its novel Photo Dynamic Therapy (“PDT”) technology. The PDT treatment procedure involves the instillation of a water based solution of Theralase’s lead anti-cancer PDC, TLD-1433, through the urethra into the bladder of the patient, to allow localization of the PDC to the NMIBC. The bladder is then drained of the solution, flushed with sterile water to remove excess solution and refilled with sterile water via a cystoscope. At this point, a fibre optic assembly, with the ability to both emit and detect laser light, is inserted through the cystoscope, to … Read More

Toronto, Ontario – March 15, 2017 Theralase Technologies Inc. (“Theralase®” or the “Company”) (TLT:TSXV) (TLTFF:OTC), a leading biotech company focused on the commercialization of medical devices to eliminate pain and the development of Photo Dynamic Compounds (“PDCs”) to destroy cancer, announced today that it has demonstrated 18 month long term stability of it lead anti-cancer Photo Dynamic Compound (“PDC”), TLD-1433.
