Toronto, Ontario – May 12, 2016, Theralase Technologies Inc. (“Theralase®” or the “Company”) (TLT:TSXV) (TLTFF:OTC), a leading biotech company focused on the commercialization of medical devices to eliminate pain and the development of Photo Dynamic Compounds (“PDCs”) to destroy cancer, announced today that it has signed a Clinical Research Agreement (“CRA”) with Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, University Health Network (“UHN”) to conduct a Phase Ib clinical study for the indication of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (“NMIBC”).

The clinical study entitled, “A Phase Ib Trial of Intravesical Photodynamic Therapy in Patients with Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer at High Risk of Progression Who Are Refractory to Therapy with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (“BCG”) and Who Are Medically Unfit for or Refuse a Cystectomy”, will be conducted by the Department of Urology at UHN, under the guidance of clinical principal investigator, Dr. Girish Kulkarni.

Dr. Girish Kulkarni, uro-oncologist at UHN stated, “I have worked closely with Theralase’s team of researchers over the last nine months in the development of the clinical protocol, investigator’s brochure and informed consent and am impressed with the pre-clinical scientific research that Theralase has brought to the table in support of this clinical study. I look forward to leading the clinical study and working with other urologists throughout Ontario to help enroll their patients in the study.”

Dr. Michael Jewett, uro-oncologist at UHN stated that, “Theralase has completed numerous strategic milestones leading up to this Phase Ib clinical study and I have been very pleased with the speed and capability of the researchers to accomplish a great many tasks in a very short period of time. The Theralase scientific research has been validated through peer reviewed publications and supports the commencement of a Phase Ib clinical study, pending approval by Health Canada of the Investigational Testing Authorization (“ITA”), for the medical laser used to activate the lead PDC, TLD-1433.”

Roger Dumoulin-White, President and CEO, Theralase stated, “The execution of the CRA with UHN to conduct a Phase Ib clinical study for patients afflicted with NMIBC allows the ability to commence enrolling patients immediately upon Health Canada approval of the ITA, expected in late 2Q2016. The Company looks forward to introducing this game changing technology to the world.”
