As Cellceutix has previously stated, the Company considers this case to be extremely frivolous and believe the facts in the Memorandum of Law prove this contention. Cellceutix wants to better clarify how a motion to dismiss works. At this point in a case, a judge essentially accepts everything in the (Plaintiff's) complaint as true. While the Company would like to say, "That allegation is factually not true" and provide reasons why, that is not how it's done in a Motion to Dismiss. As the defendant, Cellceutix is tasked with providing facts that the Company and its officers did not do anything improper with respect to disclosing information, disclaimers, scienter or any other of the allegations. The Company is limited in what exhibits may be used to plead its case, primarily kept to only regulatory filings and other documents the plaintiff referenced.
Cellceutix believes that the Ashcroft Law Firm clearly and effectively conveyed the message in the Memorandum of Law and Motion to Dismiss. Cellceutix's lead counsel, Mike Sullivan, addressed each allegation, systematically dismantling the complaint with legal precedent as to why the plaintiff's allegations are insufficient, that Cellceutix and its officers did not make any false or misleading statements and that the allegations do not state a claim.
In short, it is Cellceutix's contention that there are no legal grounds for the complaint and that The Rosen Law Firm has not provided factual allegations that are sufficient for the complaint to survive dismissal. As Mike Sullivan puts it, they are only trying to "create smoke."

About Cellceutix:
Headquartered in Beverly, Massachusetts, Cellceutix is a publicly traded company under the symbol "CTIX". Cellceutix is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative therapies in multiple diseases. Cellceutix believes it has a world-class portfolio of compounds and is now engaged in advancing its compounds and seeking strategic partnerships. Cellceutix's anti-cancer drug Kevetrin is concluding a Phase 1 clinical trial at Harvard Cancer Centers' Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and Cellceutix is now preparing its application for a Phase 2 study. In the laboratory Kevetrin has shown to induce activation of p53, often referred to as the "Guardian Angel Gene" due to its crucial role in controlling cell mutations. Cellceutix is in a Phase 2 clinical trial with its novel compound Brilacidin-OM for the prevention of Oral Mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer. Brilacidin-OM, a defensin mimetic compound, has shown in an animal model to reduce the occurrence of severe ulcerative oral mucositis by more than 94% compared to placebo. Cellceutix's anti-psoriasis drug Prurisol is in a Phase 2 trial. Prurisol is a small molecule that acts through immune modulation and PRINS reduction. Cellceutix's lead antibiotic, Brilacidin, has completed a Phase 2b trial for Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections, or ABSSSI. Top-line data have shown a single dose of Brilacidin to deliver comparable clinical outcomes to the FDA-approved seven-day dosing regimen of daptomycin. Brilacidin has the potential to be a single-dose therapy for certain multi-drug resistant bacteria (Superbugs). Cellceutix has formed research collaborations with world-renowned research institutions in the United States and Europe, including MD Anderson Cancer Center, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and the University of Bologna.
