KNOXVILLE, Tenn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT:PVCT, www.provectusbio.com), a clinical-stage oncology and dermatology biopharmaceutical company (“Provectus" or “The Company”), today announced that an article on the use of PV-10 for in-transit melanoma has been published by the Journal of Surgical Oncology. It expands on a presentation on the same topic given at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons 85th Annual Scientific Congress, which was held 2-6 May 2016, in Brisbane, Australia.
“Ten patients did not have all lesions injected, primarily due to the number of lesions present. A bystander response was noted in un-injected lesions in 50% of patients who did not have all their lesions directly injected.”
Titled “Intralesional PV-10 for In-Transit Melanoma – A Single Centre Experience," the article reports on use of PV-10 in the management of in-transit melanoma at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, in East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
