Disclosure Statement
The technology of pattern recognition tumor targeting was developed by Drug Innovation and Design, Inc. (DIAD)* and is the subject of pending patents. The Cure Cancer Project will need to enter into licensing agreements with DIAD (as well as other companies and institutions) to fulfill its mission. All such agreements will be transparent, negotiated by an independent board of directors and in accord with the highest ethical and legal standards. At the present time no such licensing agreements exist.
