Xpention, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, has the rights to a genetic marker in the blood called, P65. P65 is a promising marker for the early detection of malignant tumor formation and a useful tool for monitoring therapy and remission. Levels of p65 also appear to have a direct correlation to tumor mass/size. Initially, the Company will utilize its licensed technology to develop an immunological test for the detection of cancer in canines. The development stage is anticipated to last approximately six to eight months. Following development of the immunological test, the Company will seek to commercialize the test through licensing the test to third parties for sale and distribution.

Simultaneously, the Company will utilize its licensed technology to develop a molecular assay for detection of cancer in both humans and canines. The molecular test will be a more sensitive test and can initially be used both as a confirmation test as well as providing an ongoing measure of therapeutic success in canines and ultimately for cancer screening in humans. The duration of the development stage for the molecular assay is anticipated to be approximately twelve months. Upon successful development of the molecular assay, the Company will also seek to commercialize the molecular test.
