Todos Medical Exercises Option to Acquire Remaining 80.01% of Breakthrough Diagnostics from Amarantus After Review of Alzheimer's Blood Test Data
May 28, 2019 at 8:57 AM EDT
- Data demonstrated strong correlation between LymPro and amyloid PET
- Todos to present at Alzheimer’s Solutions Conference on June 3, 2019 in Philadelphia
- Todos to present at LD Micro on June 4th, 2019
REHOVOT, Israel, May 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Todos Medical Ltd. (OTCQB: TOMDF), a clinical-stage in-vitro-diagnostics company focused on the development of blood tests for the early detection of cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, today announced that it has received and analyzed data from the University of Leipzig on the lymphocyte proliferation test (‘LymPro”), which demonstrated a strong correlation between LymPro and amyloid PET. Upon review of the LymPro data, Todos Medical exercised its exclusive option to acquire the remaining 80.01% of its joint venture Breakthrough Diagnostics from Amarantus Bioscience Holdings, Inc. (OTCPK: AMBS). The transaction is expected to close upon listing of Todos’ common stock on a national stock exchange.
“Todos Medical was very pleased with the positive data we received from the University of Leipzig on the LymPro test,” said Herman Weiss, MD, President & CEO of Todos Medical. “The data we received is exciting as we believe it will lead to the creation of a screening test for Alzheimer’s disease, potentially the first to be developed. With LymPro’s focus on measuring immune markers that are directly linked to well established cell proliferation processes, we are expanding our understanding of how the body’s immune system responds to disease and how we can use this response to diagnose early and monitor the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. We believe this could be an invaluable tool for pharmaceutical companies’ development of novel treatments for Alzheimer’s, as well as a critical component to early diagnosis that may have a meaningful impact on the cost-curve associated with Alzheimer’s, estimated to be currently $250 billion annually in the US, and expected to grow to $1.2 trillion by 2050.”
“Todos Medical is rapidly building upon its deep understanding of the interplay between immune system and aberrant cell proliferation processes that lead to disease,” said Gerald E. Commissiong, President & CEO of Amarantus and Interim-CEO of Breakthrough Diagnostics, Inc. “We believe this combination of system and cellular processes will help drive the clinical and commercial plan for LymPro. LymPro has the potential to disrupt the current paradigm for Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis and monitoring of progression, and we believe the insights Todos has gained through the commercialization of its cancer tests will be invaluable as we prepare to take LymPro through the commercialization process.”

About Todos Medical Ltd.
Todos Medical Ltd. (OTCQB: TOMDF) an Israeli company headquartered in Rehovot, Israel, is a cancer in-vitro-diagnostic (“IVD”) company engaging in the development of a series of blood tests for the early detection of a variety of cancers. The company has developed two cancer screening tests based on TBIA (Todos Biochemical Infrared Analyses), a method for cancer screening using peripheral blood analysis. The TBIA screening method is based on the cancer’s influence on the immune system which triggers biochemical changes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (“PBMC”) and plasma. This proprietary and patented method incorporates biochemistry, physics and signal processing. The company’s two cancer screening tests, TM-B1 and TM-B2 are CE marked in the EU.

About Breakthrough Diagnostics
The Lymphocyte Proliferation Test (LymPro Test) is a diagnostic blood test that determines the ability of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) and monocytes to withstand an exogenous mitogenic stimulation that induces them to enter the cell cycle. It is believed that certain diseases, most notably Alzheimer's disease, are the result of compromised cellular machinery that leads to aberrant cell cycle re-entry by neurons which then leads to apoptosis. LymPro is unique in the use of peripheral blood lymphocytes as a surrogate for neuronal cell function, suggesting a common relationship between PBLs and neurons in the brain.
About Amarantus Bioscience Holdings, Inc.
Amarantus Bioscience Holdings (AMBS) is a JLABS alumnus biotechnology company developing treatments and diagnostics for diseases in the areas of neurology, regenerative medicine and orphan diseases through its subsidiaries. AMBS’ wholly-owned subsidiary Elto Pharma, Inc. has development rights to eltoprazine, a Phase 2b-ready small molecule indicated for Parkinson's disease levodopa-induced dyskinesia, Alzheimer’s aggression and adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, commonly known as ADHD. AMBS acquired the rights to the Engineered Skin Substitute program, a regenerative medicine-based approach for treating severe burns with full-thickness autologous skin grown in tissue culture that is being pursued by AMBS’ wholly-owned subsidiary Cutanogen Corporation. AMBS’ wholly-owned subsidiary MANF Therapeutics, Inc. owns key intellectual property rights and licenses from a number of prominent universities related to the development of the therapeutic protein known as mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (“MANF”). MANF Therapeutics, Inc. is developing MANF-based products as treatments for brain and ophthalmic disorders. MANF was discovered by the Company’s Chief Scientific Officer John Commissiong, PhD. Dr. Commissiong discovered MANF from AMBS’ proprietary discovery engine PhenoGuard.
