BioCancell Therapeutics, Inc., a biopharmaceuticals corporation, has developed patient-oriented, and therefore patient-specific, targeted therapy for the treatment of numerous types of cancer. The treatment is based on utilizing the H-19 gene — an important oncofetal gene — expressed at high levels in more than 30 types of human cancer tissues, while existing at a nearly undetectable level in the surrounding normal tissues. BioCancell Therapeutics was founded in 2004 by Professor Abraham Hochberg, professor of molecular biology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. BioCancell's R&D activities are conducted through its wholly owned Israel-based subsidiary,

BioProtect has developed an innovative medical device platform consisting of a biodegradable, inflatable balloon that can be implanted into the body with a quick, minimally invasive process. The device can be used to enhance prostate cancer treatment by moving healthy tissue from the radiation pathway. This technology leads to decreased side effects and allows for increased radiation intensity and fewer overall treatment sessions. The device can also be used in the orthopedic market to assist with successful repair of rotator cuff tears.

Health Diagnostic Laboratory, Inc. (HDL, Inc.) will be headquartered in Richmond, VA. HDL, Inc. plans to be a fully CAP/CLIA accredited clinical laboratory focused on disease management with supporting clinical laboratory testing for both adult and pediatric patient sectors in the areas of cardiovascular disease (CVD), heart failure, stroke, diabetes mellitus (DM), metabolic syndrome (MS), and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis or fatty liver disease (NASH). HDL, Inc. is founded on the idea that all people and their diseases are not created equally. In order to reverse the alarming increase in chronic diseases, it requires that we examine emerging biomarkers that are more indicative of the mechanics of affected systems. HDL, Inc. provides a unique array of tests that will go far beyond the typical laboratory tests that give physicians a clear understanding of the disease status for each patient so that they are able to make clear decisions of the treatment pathways for each patient. HDL, Inc. offers unique clinical laboratory test results, selected based on their ability to discern the information required to understand each patient's disease state, and will be expanded in response to physicians' requests for continued advanced testing as technology evolves. Our idea is that each treatment plan should be individualized to truly affect positive changes in chronic disease states. This business approach is quite unique in the world of laboratory testing. So much of clinical laboratory testing has become commoditized in the USA. Most laboratories focus on testing volumes and winning bids from private payer health insurance companies in order to continually increase the number of samples tested in their laboratories, especially the large nationals. This type of approach to lab testing is consistent with the managed care approach of the health insurance companies but does not impact on reducing incidence of disease or improving patient outcomes.
