North American Scientific (NAS) subsidiary Theseus Imaging has inked a clinical trial agreement with the National Cancer Institute for the co-development of the Chatsworth, CA-based firm's Hynic-Annexin V agent for imaging cell death. The agreement provides for cooperation between Theseus and the NCI's Biomedical Imaging Program (BIP).
In addition, both parties will plan for clinical development of the agent, and will also submit their own investigational new drug (IND) applications to the Food and Drug Administration. The BIP will also sponsor clinical trials in oncology patients, NAS said.
