Corporate Mission
Neoprobe Corporate is a biomedical company that develops and commercializes innovative medical
products that enhance patient care and improve patient outcome. Neoprobe’s product portfolio includes
innovative cardiovascular and surgical oncology products. Neoprobe has initiated late stage clinical trials
in 2008 for a cancer diagnostic drug. The diagnostic drug, Lymphoseek, will be a first in class for
lymphatic tissue targeting. Neoprobe also has a therapeutic drug, RIGScan CR, in development that is
designed to improve survival in colorectal cancer patients.
Proprietary Technology
Neoprobe is actively marketing two medical device product lines while it pursues development initiatives
for three potentially significant drug/therapeutic products. Neoprobe’s drug/therapeutic development
efforts are centered on two radiopharmaceutical agents, Lymphoseek and RIGScan CR, and on the
activated cellular therapy (ACT) technology platform of Neoprobe’s subsidiary, Cira Biosciences, Inc.
(Cira Bio).
Lymphoseek is commencing Phase 3 clinical studies, and if approved, would be a first in class drug
specifically labeled for use in a procedure commonly referred to as intraoperative lymphatic mapping
(ILM) or sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Neoprobe has completed a revenue sharing
marketing/distribution agreement for Lymphoseek in the U.S. with Cardinal Health.
Neoprobe’s device offerings are led by the neo2000® line of gamma detection systems widely used by
cancer surgeons in ILM for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and related diseases. Neoprobe’s
gamma detection system offerings also now include wireless probes based on Bluetooth® technology.
Additionally, Neoprobe is commercializing the Quantix® line of blood flow measurement products. The
Quantix products employ a unique and proprietary dual beam Doppler technology that permits real-time,
accurate measurement of volume blood flow and other hemodynamic parameters.
