OXIS - CEO Tony Cataldo stated, "Oxis is honored to have Dr. Xie and his patented technology as an integral part of our strategy to develop high valued patented assets for the treatment of Multiple Myeloma. I wanted to leverage Dr. Xie's significant experience and technologies, much the same way I did when I acquired highly valued patents from the NCI (NIH) for stage 4 Melanoma from the National Cancer Institute to form Lion Biotechnologies, Inc. (LBIO)".
