Ebola Patient Who Received Aethlon (OTCBB: AEMD) Hemopurifier® Therapy Has Been Discharged From Hospital

Biodefense Breaking News: Ebola Patient Who Received Aethlon (OTCBB: AEMD) Hemopurifier® Therapy Has Been Discharged From Hospital

SAN DIEGO - November 25, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), the pioneer in developing targeted therapeutic devices to address infectious disease and cancer, disclosed today that an Ebola patient who received Hemopurifier® therapy has been reported to have been discharged from Frankfurt University Hospital in Germany. The patient was a Ugandan physician, who became infected with Ebola in Sierra Leone where he was treating other Ebola patients.



The Aethlon Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class bio-filtration device that targets the rapid elimination of viruses and immunosuppressive proteins from the circulatory system of infected individuals. At the time Hemopurifier® therapy was administered to the Ugandan physician, he was unconscious and suffered from multiple organ failure. His viral load prior to the administration of a single 6.5-hour Hemopurifier® treatment was measured at 400,000 virus copies per milliliter of blood (copies/ml). Post-treatment viral load was measured at 1,000 copies/ml and never again rose above that level. Viral load became undetectable five days after therapy. The treatment was well tolerated with no adverse events reported. Additionally, a post-treatment elution protocol verified that 242 million Ebola viruses were captured within the Hemopurifier® during treatment.

In the United States, Hemopurifier® therapy is available to treat Ebola patients through FDA expanded access "emergency use" provisions to address life threatening circumstances for which an alternative therapy is not available. At present, no antiviral therapy or vaccine has proven to be effective against Ebola virus infection in humans.

Aethlon will soon begin the first U.S. clinical Hemopurifier® studies following the United States Food and Drug Administration's (FDA)'s approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE). The study will contribute safety data to advance the device as a broad-spectrum countermeasure against bioterror and pandemic threats, including Ebola and chronic viral pathogens such as HIV and Hepatitis C (HCV).

Biodefense News: Aethlon Medical's (OTCBB: AEMD) Hemopurifier® Used in Successful Treatment of Patient with Advanced Ebola Infection

Biodefense Breaking News: Aethlon Medical's (OTCBB: AEMD) Hemopurifier® Used in Successful Treatment of Patient with Advanced Ebola Infection

242 Million Copies of Ebola Virus Removed from Patient during Treatment, Physician Reports at American Society of Nephrology Annual Meeting

SAN DIEGO and PHILADELPHIA - November 14, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) The Aethlon Hemopurifier® was used in the successful treatment of a critically-ill Ebola-infected patient in Frankfurt, Germany, according to data presented today at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Annual Meeting by Helmut Geiger, M.D., Chief of Nephrology at Goethe University, Frankfurt University Hospital. Geiger reported that 242 million Ebola viruses were captured within the Aethlon Hemopurifier® during treatment, a number verified by a post-treatment elution protocol. The patient is no longer infected with Ebola virus and is expected to make a full recovery.


Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), the pioneer in developing targeted therapeutic devices to treat infectious disease, created the Hemopurifier®, a first-in-class bio-filtration device that targets the rapid elimination of viruses and immunosuppressive proteins from the circulatory system of infected individuals.

The Frankfurt University Hospital patient, a Ugandan physician, who was infected with Ebola in Sierra Leone where he was treating Ebola patients, was not administered Hemopurifier® therapy until 12 days after being diagnosed.

At the time of Hemopurifier® administration, Dr. Geiger reported that the Ebola patient was unconscious and suffering from multiple organ failure, which required mechanical ventilation, continuous dialysis and the administration of vasopressor medications.

The patient's viral load prior to the administration of a single 6.5-hour Hemopurifier® treatment was measured 400,000 virus copies per milliliter of blood (copies/ml). Post-treatment viral load was measured at 1,000 copies/ml and never again rose above that level. The treatment was well tolerated with no adverse events reported.

Since the administration of Hemopurifier® therapy, Frankfurt University Hospital officials have reported that Ebola virus is no longer detectable in the patient's blood and full recovery is expected.

"The rate of viral load reduction and magnitude of Ebola virus captured within the Hemopurifier® is quite remarkable when considering the lethality of Ebola infection and the compromised health of the patient," stated James A. Joyce, Chairman and CEO of Aethlon Medical. "We're thrilled for the patient and applaud the tireless effort of physicians in Frankfurt who helped to save the patient's life. We will continue to advance Hemopurifier® therapy as a lead candidate to address antiviral drug resistance and the sole broad-spectrum strategy to address Ebola other viruses where drugs and vaccines have not proven to be effective."

Aethlon will soon begin the first U.S. clinical Hemopurifier® studies following the United States Food and Drug Administration's (FDA)'s approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE). The study will contribute safety data to advance the device as a broad-spectrum countermeasure against pandemic threats, including Ebola and chronic viral pathogens such as HIV and Hepatitis C (HCV).

Experts and Analyst Comment on Recent Security Breaches for National Cybersecurity Month

Experts and Analyst Comment on Recent Security Breaches for National Cybersecurity Month

Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index, Cybersecurity experts, Kiersten Todt & Roger Cressey, Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID  and Scott L. Greiper, of Secure Strategy Group Share Insight

New York NY- Point Roberts WA - October 16, 2014 - Investorideas.com (www.investorideas.com), a global news source covering leading sectors including cybersecurity and biometrics, issues commentary from industry experts and analysts on recent security breaches (including Home Depot and JP Morgan) as National Cybersecurity Month drives even more awareness to the issue.

October 2014 marks the 11th Annual National Cyber Security Awareness Month, sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security, in cooperation with the National Cyber Security Alliance and the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center.

Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS) said looking at stocks in the sector, “With increasing publicity related to network attacks, an increasing number of companies are increasing their cybersecurity investments to be proactive rather than responsive to attacks. The proof of this trend can be seen as cybersecurity companies report gains in the size of their customer base as well as growth in the contracts awarded by the large, S&P100-type firms. One can expect firms such as Palo Alto Networks (PANW), FireEye (FEYE), Cyber-Ark Software (CYBR), Barracuda Networks (CUDA), and Fortinet (FTNT) to be among those that should benefit.”

Scott L. Greiper, President of Secure Strategy Group, LLC. told us, "The growing list of big-name hacking victims will support the broad secular growth being enjoyed by many companies in the cyber security sector.  Our SSG Small Cap Homeland Security Report for the first half of 2014 documents the strong performance of small caps in this sector. We anticipate growth will continue as the cyber threat and related legal concerns are taken seriously by more and more enterprises, especially small and medium companies.  To be sure, market participants need to step carefully given the presence of some inflated valuations and shifting technology requirements that can have rapid and significant impacts on certain providers.”

Cybersecurity experts, Kiersten Todt & Roger Cressey, Liberty Group Ventures commented, “National Cybersecurity Month has been dominated by news reports of successful attacks in cyberspace.  Millions of accounts, addresses, names, phone numbers, and other valuable data have been stolen.  Recent high profile cyber breaches into Home Depot and JP Morgan, in particular, have demonstrated the diverse and pervasive threats that businesses face.  What are some of the key lessons from these significant breaches? 

Corporate board members are now being held responsible and accountable for breaches.  Corporate leaders must view Cyber risk as a risk equal to credit, liquidity, and operational risks.  Assessing risk is an enterprise-wide endeavor, not merely a department, division, or company activity. The complexity of cybersecurity interdependencies is a growing challenge for companies to understand and manage.  Recent corporate breaches also reflect an increased diversification of threat actors who have significant capabilities and have exposed the difficulty in discerning whether a cybersecurity adversary is a nation-state or a sophisticated criminal organization. Companies should assume they are targets of a complete range of adversaries and intentions.

Employee behavior is a primary corporate vulnerability – spearphishing remains the primary way adversaries can infiltrate a network. Educating employees is the foundation of effective corporate cybersecurity and is often neglected.  Private organizations should not expect the government to identify threats first; information sharing between the public and private sectors is essential to maintaining security and companies must commit to continually improving methods for information sharing.

Every company can learn from past breaches and apply the best practices and lessons learned upon which industry and government have agreed.  One tool that companies have already begun to use effectively to manage cyber risk, enterprise-wide, is the application of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.  In light of the recent court ruling requiring companies to take “reasonable efforts” on cybersecurity, application of the NIST Framework can be viewed as doing so.

No company can stop every cyber threat to its organization; companies will continue to be breached and the adversaries will continue to be more creative and opportunistic in finding vulnerabilities to exploit.  Tools and technologies that help organizations more effectively manage cyber risk will become essential for companies to prosper in the current threat environment.“

Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID (NASDAQ: NXTD) said, “Companies need to approach cyber security from a holistic standpoint. Personnel, hardware and software all play a role. Authentication is a major factor. Passwords have been proven to be ineffective and biometrics are increasingly being used as a means of authentication of personnel.  Authentication should also rely on at least two factors to allow access.  Behavior of staff with access to sensitive information needs to be monitored.  Do they have outside internet access?  Can their behavior invite breaching attacks?  Companies should also look at keeping sensitive information in an encrypted format.  Here at NXT-ID, we are developing technologies that not only require dual authentication for access control but also dynamic pairing codes that change for each enquiry, making it very difficult for attackers to gain access to sensitive information.”

National Cyber Security Awareness Month is designed to engage and educate public and private sector partners through events and initiatives with the goal of raising awareness about cybersecurity and increasing the resiliency of the nation in the event of a cyber incident.

Aethlon Medical (OTCBB: AEMD) Announces First Treatment of an Ebola Patient

Biodefense Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCBB: AEMD) Announces First Treatment of an Ebola Patient

SAN DIEGO - October 14, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), announced today the first use of Hemopurifier® therapy on a patient infected with Ebola virus. The treatment was administered to a Ugandan doctor at the Frankfurt University Hospital in Germany. The patient, who is also a World Health Organization (WHO) worker, contracted the virus in Sierra Leone.

The Aethlon Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class bio-filtration device that targets the rapid elimination of viruses and immunosuppressive proteins from the circulatory system of infected individuals. At present, no antiviral therapy or vaccine has proven to be effective against Ebola virus infection in humans. The largest ebola virus epidemic in history is now spreading on a global basis with more than 4,000 deaths being reported by the WHO.

"We thank the physicians in Frankfurt for allowing us the opportunity to treat this advanced-stage patient," stated Aethlon founder and CEO, Jim Joyce. "Details related to the patient's response to therapy will be disclosed once hospital officials deem it appropriate to report an update on the condition of this individual."

In the care of ebola-infected individuals, the Hemopurifier targets two unmet medical needs: the rapid elimination of circulating ebola to inhibit continued progeny virus replication and the direct targeting of shed glycoproteins that overwhelm the host immune response. The device can be deployed for use within the global infrastructure of dialysis and CRRT machines already located in hospitals and clinics.

Aethlon further disclosed that it is preparing to initiate U.S. clinical studies of Hemopurifier therapy based on the United States Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) that was previously submitted by the Company. The study will contribute safety data to advance the device as a broad-spectrum countermeasure against pandemic threats, including ebola and chronic viral pathogens such as HIV and Hepatitis C (HCV).

To date, Hemopurifier therapy has been successfully administered in approximately one hundred treatment experiences in health compromised HIV and HCV infected individuals. These studies were conducted at the Apollo Hospital, Fortis Hospital, Sigma New Life Hospital, and the Medanta Medicity Institute, all located in India. In vitro validation studies that demonstrated the ability of the Hemopurifier to capture Zaire and other strains of ebola virus were conducted by researchers at the United States Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) and the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Aethlon Medical (NASDAQ:OTCQB: AEMD) Receives Notice of DARPA Contract Renewal

Breaking Biodefense News: Aethlon Medical (NASDAQ:OTCQB: AEMD) Receives Notice of DARPA Contract Renewal

SAN DIEGO - September 22, 2014 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:OTCBB:AEMD), the pioneer in developing targeted therapeutic devices to address infectious disease, cancer and other life-threatening conditions, disclosed today that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has informed the Company that it plans to exercise an option to proceed with year four of a five-year $5.9 million contract that was awarded to Aethlon on September 30, 2011 under DARPA's Dialysis-Like Therapeutics (DLT) program.

The fourth year of Aethlon's DLT contract contains three milestones representing a potential of $669,292 in revenue opportunity. To date, Aethlon has invoiced $4,252,037 to DARPA for achieving twenty of twenty-three milestone objectives targeted in the first three years of the DLT program.

The goal of the Dialysis-Like Therapeutics (DLT) program is to develop a portable device that removes "dirty" blood from the body, separates harmful agents, and returns "clean" blood to the body in a manner similar to dialysis treatment of kidney failure. The resulting device could decrease the morbidity and mortality of sepsis, thereby saving thousands of lives and billions of dollars in the United States annually.

To do so, the DLT program seeks to develop multiple component technologies, integrate them into a portable device, and rigorously validate device effectiveness. Key technical areas and representative technical approaches include:
·        Persistent interrogation of the entire blood volume via sensing technologies such as surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). This capability may enable early identification of bacteria, viruses, toxins, and cytokines.
·        High-flow fluid manipulation without the use of anticoagulants via novel biocompatible/biomimetic architectures and advanced surface functionalization chemistries.
·        Continuous removal of pathogens, toxins, activated cells, exosomes, and cytokines via a diverse suite of "label-free" technologies such as synthetic mannose binding lectins and selective adsorption cartridges.
·        Closed-loop therapy with system feedback to monitor and redirect patient state based on conditional probability and reduced order techniques.

The integration and validation of these component technologies focuses on establishing a path to FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) before the completion of the program. From there, the device will be available for transition to military medical commands and clinical trials required for final regulatory approval.

In addition to treating sepsis, the DLT device represents a flexible platform that may be configured to combat engineered and evolving pathogens.
