Samaritan Pharmaceuticals Inc. (AMEX:LIV): -- Clears Clogged
Arteries -- Raises HDL -- Reduces CK Enzyme Marker: Suggesting It
Improves, Hypercholesterolemia-Related Heart Suffering, Which
Commonly Leads to Heart Attacks Samaritan Pharmaceuticals Inc.
(AMEX:LIV) a developer of innovative drugs, announced today, it has
filed a new provisional U.S. patent application to support its
original application, and add additional claims, for its
cardiovascular drug SP-1000 for the prevention and treatment of
cardiovascular disease. Samaritan's collaborating scientists,
through animal studies, validated SP-1000's ability to reduce blood
cholesterol in animals. In addition, researchers validated
SP-1000's ability, to clear clogged arteries of atheroma; raise
HDL, the good cholesterol; and reduce CK enzyme elevations, a
marker for heart suffering in animals. Additionally, researchers
have identified SP-1000 as having a new mechanism of action, i.e.
it directly targets cholesterol in the blood and appears to be
active at the lowest dose tested, which could suggest minimal side
effects if tested in people. SP 1000 was discovered by researchers
from Georgetown University and is exclusively licensed to
Samaritan. SP-1000's effect in reducing circulating cholesterol
levels was validated with two hypercholesterolemia animal studies,
one with ApoE knockout mice and another with guinea pigs.
Previously, on March 28, 2006 Samaritan announced that new
preclinical data from animal studies showed SP-1000 reduces
cholesterol. Upon further analysis of scientific data from these
animal studies, Samaritan found new claims to protect with a new
provisional U.S. patent application. Dr. Greeson, CEO of Samaritan
stated, "Although we feel extremely positive, I need to express a
cautionary optimism in that animal studies do not necessarily mean
SP-1000 will work in people. It does validate our original thesis
as to how we think this drug works. In addition, animal studies are
enough to start looking to out-license SP-1000 to a major
pharmaceutical and/or perform additional preclinical trials in
preparation to file an IND with the FDA to investigate SP-1000 in
people." Samaritan Pharmaceuticals: "We LIV....to Save Lives."
