With that said, I now turn the call over to Mr. Caruso. Jim?
Thank you, Jules and thank you to all participants for joining our first quarter 2017 financial and corporate performance review. We have started 2017 with a number of achievements, which we believe provide a strong foundation for the reminder of the year. While we have successfully executed against our stated objectives and guidance over Q1, there remains significant work to complete and progress to be made. That work continues to be focused on the advancement of our therapeutic phospholipid drug conjugate for PDC assets, specifically our lead product candidate CLR 131 as well as our CLR CTX chemotherapeutic conjugate program. At this time, I would like to share the milestones we have achieved over the quarter with regard to advancing CLR 131 as well as the strengthening of our overall intellectual property portfolio. From a clinical perspective, after successfully completing Cohort 3, we advance CLR 131 into a fourth cohort of our Phase 1 clinical trial in relapse refractory multiple myeloma. We continue to see consistently impressive safety results and positive indications of efficacy, including the most significant clinical outcome overall survival. In fact, I am pleased to report that Cohort 1 evaluable patients have now achieved median overall survival of 19.3 months and the survival benefit continues to increase for these patients as well as all evaluable patients enrolled in our Phase 1 trial. Our newly appointed Chief Medical Officer, Dr. John Friend will provide further color later in this call. In addition, we initiated our Phase 2 trial of CLR 131 in multiple myeloma and other hematologic malignancies, a full quarter ahead of schedule, which as you may know is supported by a $2 million National Cancer Institute Fast-Track contract. In addition, we announced two peer-reviewed studies, one publication in Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology and then oral presentation at the Academy of Surgical Congress. Each of these highlights the utility of our PDC delivery platform. From an intellectual property perspective both Q1 and year-to-date 2017 presented a number of additional patent actions both in the U.S. and abroad with a total of 5 patents granted since the start of the year. The USPTO granted CLR 131 and another of our PDC assets, CLR 125, a method of use patent for the treatment of solid tumors for which we recently announced the in vivo efficacy benefit observed with multiple doses of CLR 131 versus a single dose. Another of our PDC assets, CLR 124, received a method of use patent for identifying cancer and cancer metastases in PET imaging. Finally, two of our optical agents, CLR 1501 and 1502 were granted Japanese patents for use in intraoperative tumor imaging both in vitro as well as in vivo. Thus far in Q2, we received Japanese method of use patents for CLR 131 and CLR 125 each in combination with radiation and/or other therapies to treat cancer stem cells. Additionally, the USPTO granted a method of use patent for CLR 1501, CLR 1502 and an additional CLR 1401 born analog for the detection of multiple cancer types. Likely, the most important intellectual property success was our acquisition of the remaining rights to the use of CLR 131 in multiple myeloma. The Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, an important investor and partner, had maintained part ownership of this use patent. Therefore, this license acquisition now provides us with complete control over the product development and commercialization of CLR 131 in multiple myeloma and all other potential indications. From a financial perspective, I am pleased to announce that our cash on hand will allow us to maintain operations well into the second quarter of 2018, a full quarter beyond our previous guidance. As you can see in terms of achievements, we have had an eventful quarter. Net recent events early in the second quarter also mentioned as I believe they are strategically important for positive and accelerated company growth. As I mentioned earlier, we recently welcomed Dr. John Friend as our new Chief Medical Officer. John has extensive experience in drug development from preclinical work improved the FDA regulatory process and we are extremely pleased he has chosen to join our management team. In addition, we added two industry veterans to our Board of Directors, Doug Swirsky and Fred Driscoll. Both of whom have extensive management and financial experience. We consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have each of them as part of our board and we are pleased to welcome them once again on this call. Now, I would like to quickly outline the rest of today’s agenda. We will begin with our CFO, Chad Kolean providing our first quarter financial summary. John Friend will then provide a comprehensive update of our Phase 1 clinical study of CLR 131 for the treatment of relapsed refractory multiple myeloma. Then Jarrod Longcor, our Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and Operations, will provide an update of Cellectar’s preclinical studies in solid tumor types as well as our collaboration with Pierre Fabre, after which I will provide closing comments. As always, at the conclusion of the call, the executive team will be available to answer your questions. At this time, I’d like to turn the call over to Cellectar’s CFO, Chad Kolean for an overview of the first quarter 2017 financials.
Thank you, Jim. I will begin by identifying two aspects regarding our capitalization that occurred during the quarter after which I will provide a high level overview of our financial results. During the first quarter of 2017, we made substantial progress in improving the company’s financial position. As of December 31, 2016, we had 17 preferred Series A shares outstanding. As you may recall, these shares were issued for the financing that we completed on November 29, 2016 and were each convertible into 66,667 shares of common stock, more total of 1,133,339 common shares at the request of whole. During January 2017, all of these preferred Series A shares were converted into common stock and there are no additional shares of preferred stock outstanding. Another aspect of the November 2016 financing was the issuance of Series C warrants to purchase common stock at $1.50 per share. Since the beginning of 2017, holders have chosen to exercise 1,960,506 of these warrants resulting in the generation of an incremental $2.941 million in funding. These exercises occurred primarily during February and March with a nominal amount occurring in April. This has improved our cash reserves and extended our runway. Previously, we reported that we had funding into the first quarter of 2018, with the cash generated by the warrant exercises we now have funding into the second quarter of 2018. This also means that the November 2016 offering which was initially reported to have generated $9.2 million gross and approximately $8.3 million net has now generated approximately $12.1 million gross and $11.2 million in net funding proceeds received by the company. Now for an overview of our operating results from the first quarter of 2017, research and development expenses were $1.9 million, an increase of $0.8 million from the prior year. The increase represents incremental spending to support the addition of the recently announced Phase 2 clinical trials in hematologic malignancies, while the spending pace for our ongoing Phase 1 relapsed refractory multiple myeloma trial continues. General and administrative expenses totaled $1.0 million, which is consistent with the first quarter of 2016. Although the total amount did not change appreciably, the composition of the spending shifted slightly. Personnel costs increased by $21 million, offset by reduced consulting and professional expenses of the same amount. We generated a loss form operations of $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, while in the first quarter of 2016 our operating loss was $2.0 million. The increased loss is due to the increase in R&D spending just discussed. Other expense net was $0.1 million for the current quarter while we generated other income of $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2016. As we have identified in previous earnings calls, these other income and expense amounts result largely from changes in the value of securities treated as derivative liabilities on the company’s balance sheet. It is important to make a couple of key points here. First, the income or expense generated from this type of activities is non-cash in nature. Second, as is reflected in the results for the quarter just ended, we do not expect to generate a significant impact from the revaluation of derivatives going forward. This is the result of a substantial reduction in the quantity of securities that are considered to raise. As a result of the renegotiation and reclassification to equity of the warrants issued in October 2015 that was part of the November 2016 financing. This substantially reduces the fluctuations and balance related to the derivative liability we have in our financial statements. Our net loss from the first quarter of 2017 was $2.9 million or $0.24 per share. In the first quarter 2016, net income was $0.8 million or $0.96 per share. As of March 31, 2017, we had $11.2 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand, while as of December 31, 2016, we had $11.4 million in cash and cash equivalents reflecting the beneficial impact of the warrant exercises. As I stated previously, we estimate that our available cash and cash equivalents should fund the company’s planned operations into the second quarter of 2018. Additional capital will be required for operations beyond that. And with that I will turn the call back over to Jim.
Thank you, Chad. As you know, we are now in the fourth Cohort of our Phase 1 clinical trial of CLR 131 and have initiated our NCI supported Phase 2 trial as well. John Friend will now provide us with an update on those clinical programs.
Thank you, Jim and good afternoon everyone. As you know, multiple myeloma is an incurable malignancy of plasma cells, which is part of the B-cell lineage of immune cells and an important component of our immune system. As a rare cancer, approximately 30,000 Americans will be diagnosed with mild myeloma and 12,500 deaths will be attributable to this disease in 2017. This hematologic cancer is characterized by both diffuse distribution and radio sensitivity suggesting systemically delivered targeted radio therapeutics such as CLR 131 may have a role in the treatment of this formidable disease. In spite of continued advances and expansion of treatment options or combinations of therapies for multiple myeloma, this disease remains an area of high unmet medical need without a cure on the horizon, the natural course of the disease results in nearly all patients experiencing multiple rounds of relapse or the development of disease which is resistant or refractory to treatments. Frequently the time to progression accelerates after each successive round of therapy. The greatest need continues to be the development of therapies that can improve overall survival while maintaining quality of life of each patient during their cancer journey. Given this current treatment paradigm and based on the clinical data already observed with a single infusion of CLR 131 in heavily pre-treated relapse refractory patient population, we remain optimistic regarding potential benefits of CLR 131 made provide to patients with this relapse refractory multiple myeloma and other B-cell cancers. As Jim stated earlier, I would like to provide you with a review of the top line data from Cohort 3 of our ongoing Phase 1 study. As a reminder the current Phase 1 study is an open label dose escalation study in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patients. The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of a single 30 minute infusion of CLR 131 with and without dexamethasone. These early studies help us and guide us in terms of a choice of dose regimen to move forward into Phase 2 and frequently provide us with the hint of potential efficacy such as M-protein progression free survival and of course overall survival. Based on our evaluation to-date both safety and efficacy signals are extremely encouraging. Patients in Cohort 3 were enrolled over a 2 months period of time from October to December 2016. All patients met the inclusion, exclusion criteria pre-specified in the protocol. Including prior treatment with proteasome inhibitors such as Velcade or [indiscernible] and immunomodulators such as Revlimid or pomalidomide. However, unlike previous cohorts this group was older with a mean age of 71 years had a higher average number of prior treatments including one patient who had received nine prior treatments, all patients, 100% of patients had undergone stem cell transplant and as a result these patients also had a tremendous base line tumor burden which was all greater than previous cohorts. We enroll these patients with extensive and far advanced disease by design. During drug development, it is important to test the drug in a real world setting with patients who could potentially benefit the most in terms of survival and quality of life. Each patient received a single 25 millicurie per meter squared dose of CLR 131 which was based on each patient’s body surface area. As a primary objective of this study, safety data was captured over the 85 days of the study. Although the total number of adverse events experienced by these patients increased as compared to Cohorts 1 and 2, the average grade or severity was completely in line with what was observed with single doses of the 12.5 and 18.75 millicurie per meter squared doses from Cohort 1 and 2. The adverse events experienced by Cohort 3 were as could be anticipated with a radiotherapeutic cytopenic in nature. The frequently reported off-target and toxic effects of currently available therapies such as neurotoxicity, cardio and GI toxicities and deep vein thrombosis have not been reported in patients exposed to CLR 131 to-date. We believe that this favorable adverse event profile is due at least in part to our PDC tumor targeting and sparing of healthy tissue. The cytopenias observed to-date in this study have not resulted in any clinically relevant events. As previously disclosed, the data monitoring committee determined that the dose of 25 millicurie per meter squared to be safe and well-tolerated and approved a fourth cohort with a single 30-minute infusion of 31.25 millicuries per meter squared. This fourth cohort is enrolling now and we plan to provide an update later this year. As a secondary objective of this study, efficacy endpoints were collected. Progression-free survival as well as the reductions in M-protein and free light chain, also FLC levels are established surrogate markers of efficacy in patients with multiple myeloma. As one would expect with his highly advanced disease cohort, the PFS for Cohort 3 was 64 days, which is less than what was observed in previous cohorts. However, all patients in Cohort 3 achieved stable disease with single dose of CLR 131 and experiencing more substantial and sustained reduction in both M-protein and FLC. Reductions were observed as early as Day 22 with a peak reduction around Day 43. The average reduction of M-protein in Cohort 3 peaked at Day 43 and was nearly a threefold increase in the reduction seen in Cohort 1 and nearly a twofold increase in the reduction over Cohort 2. In one patient, the M-protein level reduction was just shy of 50% and continued to be well-controlled from a single 30-minute infusion of CLR 131 through Day 64 post-infusion. As a reminder, the International Myeloma Working Group considers an M-protein reduction of 50% or greater to be qualified as a partial response. Ultimately, the secondary signals that we are observing are surrogate markers of survival. The median overall survival for all evaluable patients in all cohorts continues to increase as we will continue to follow them to determine the overall survival benefit. Patients from Cohort 1 who received a single dose or 12.5 millicurie per meter squared dose have achieved a median overall survival of 19.3 months and Cohort 2 patients who received a single 18.75 millicurie per meter squared dose have a median overall survival of 9.9 months. As of March 2017, the patients from Cohort 3 who received single infusion of 25 millicuries per meter squared have a median overall survival of 4.2 months. Again, all evaluable patients from Cohort 1, 2 and 3 are alive and therefore these numbers are continuing to increase. Although these efficacy signals are extremely encouraging, very excited about the recent preclinical data we disclosed in an April 27 press release. In this release, we described a doubling of mean survival in mice receiving two doses of CLR 131 compared to mice receiving a single dose of CLR 131. A study was performed in a Capan-1 xenograft model of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma and Jarrod will provide additional details in a few minutes. The second dose provided significant survival benefit in this challenging disease model and it is possible that additional doses could further enhance these outcomes. This multi-dose schedule has been incorporated in our ongoing Phase 2 NCI supported study, where patients can receive a second dose of CLR 131. As previously announced, this is a open label U.S. base with approximately 15 sites total Phase 2 study in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma and other B-cell hematologic cancers, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma. Similar to multiple myeloma, there is a tremendous unmet need in efficacious treatments for these B-cell malignancies. In the U.S. alone, approximately 30,000 patients will be diagnosed with these malignancies this year. In this Phase 2 trial, patients will receive a single dose of CLR 131 at 25 millicuries per meter squared infused over approximately 30 minutes, with the option of the second dose occurring between Days 75 and 180 based upon physician assessment and patient consent. The primary endpoint for this study is clinical benefit rate. Secondary endpoints include objective response rate, overall survival as well as other surrogate end points. In relapsed refractory multiple myeloma patients, efficacy responses will be determined according to the latest International Multiple Myeloma Working Group criteria or as in the select B-cell lymphomas, efficacy will be determined according to the Lugano criteria. We anticipate that preliminary safety and efficacy results will become available in the second half of 2017. With that, it’s my pleasure to turn the call over to Jim.
Thank you for that thorough overview of our progress with CLR 131. As we regularly state, our focus remains on the successful execution of a clinical development of CLR 131 for the treatment of relapsed refractory multiple myeloma and other select hematologic malignancies and we are very pleased with our continued momentum towards that end and we do look forward to sharing future updates. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to Jarrod Longcor, Cellectar’s Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and Operations to discuss our preclinical programs in solid tumors as well as to provide an update on our collaboration with Pierre Fabre.
Thank you, Jim. Our preclinical activities continued to accelerate and produced very encouraging results. With regard to CLR 131, we have focused our research to identify optimal dosing and regime tumor types as well as ideal drugs to be used in combination with CLR 131. We continue to strengthen our research capacity to leverage our CLR CTX conjugate programs, including the accelerating of the Pierre Fabre collaboration as well as our own in-house proprietary small molecule research. As Dr. Friend alluded to, we have been evaluating CLR 131 in multiple tumor models, including additional hematologic malignancies and solid tumors. These studies have involved examining the timing and number of additional doses in order to maximize efficacy as well as evaluating CLR 131 in combination with additional other treatments. As reported earlier this quarter, we have shown in several solid tumor models that additional doses of CLR 131 can have a significant effect on reducing the tumor volume or tumor burden and extending overall survival. Specifically, Capan-1 xenograft model of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma, CLR 131 has demonstrated that mice receiving two individual doses of 50 microcurie on Day 0 and Day 42 experienced mean survival of 135.6 days versus 64.6 days for mice receiving only a single dose of 50 microcurie on day zero. The second dose provided double the survival benefit in this challenging disease model and it is possible that additional doses could further enhance these outcomes. As this study and others that we are performing link directly to our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial and the future development of CLR 131 we expect to provide further updates as appropriate. We believe CLR 131’s novel mechanism of action reduced dose frequency and predictable and manageable adverse event profile may make the compound an excellent drug for use in combination therapy. To this end, we are evaluating the potential synergistic benefits of CLR 131 in combination with on-market therapies typically prescribed for use in certain hematologic malignancies. Separately, we are also exploring the use of CLR 131 in combination with select immunooncology compounds. Research conducted by other organizations suggests that a radiotherapeutic like CLR 131 when given in combination with an immunooncology compound could provide a meaningful synergistic effect for patients. Beyond the company’s preclinical work with CLR 131, we remain focused on advancing our research associated with our Pierre Fabre collaboration. We continued to systematically advance select conjugated molecules through our in vitro and in vivo screening paradigm in order to identify compounds with drug-like properties and enhance potential for clinical success. This system is specifically designed as an organized and disciplined approach to accelerate the development of molecules through our collaborative process. These molecules including those already developed are all targeted against solid tumors and all of the molecules created to-date represents novel chemical entities for which Cellectar possesses the IP. Finally, we have also initiated screening of a novel class of molecules leveraging the phospholipid drug delivery platform to enhance overall efficacy. This is an in-house proprietary program and while in very early stage we look forward to its rapid progression. With that, I would like to turn the call back to Jim.
Thank you, Jarrod. The overall progress of our preclinical program, including the demonstration of a doubling of survival benefits provided by a multi-dose regimen of CLR 131, advancement of the Pierre Fabre novel conjugate research and infrastructure development to accelerate future work is extremely promising. I believe it is also clear that we remain optimistic regarding the promise of CLR 131 for relapsed refractory multiple myeloma. The survival benefit of greater than 19 months in Cohort 1 is impressive and we look forward to further exploring the multi-dose clinical benefits of CLR 131 in multiple myeloma as well as other tumor types in our Phase 2 trial. In addition, the 5 patents granted year-to-date further demonstrates our effective performance in strengthening our intellectual property portfolio to better protect our assets and enhance their valuation. As always, we look forward to announcing additional company milestones and events as they occur. In conclusion, I would like to thank you very much for your participation on this call and your continued interest in Cellectar. At this time, Chad, John, Jarrod and I welcome any questions that you may have.
Thank you, sir. [Operator Instructions] Our first question will come from the line of Wangzhi Li with Ladenburg Thalmann. Please proceed.
Hey, good afternoon. Thanks for answering my question in the conclusion on the progress of the quarter. So, just for a question for the Cohort 3 and also Cohort 1 carry a product update on the overall level, I mean 19.3 months is a quite good result. Could you maybe add some additional color in terms of the context not to compare to the other agents in-house this overall survival data looks like?
Terrific. First of all, thank you, Wangzhi for the question and obviously also for participating in our call. We are very excited about what we are observing with CLR 131 both from a safety perspective as well as some of these indicators or surrogate markers of efficacy and in particular the most significant of all and that’s overall survival. With that, I will turn it over to John for his comments.
Great. Thanks, Wangzhi. So you are asking comparing on-market products to our own data. So, of course it’s very challenging to make any sort of direct comparison between what we are seeing in our Phase 1 study and also what other sponsors have seen to-date as you are well aware overall survival has been extremely difficult for current therapies to make a really truly meaningful impact on OS. As Jim mentioned, 19.3 months is pretty significant especially after just a single dose at the 12.5 millicurie per meter squared. Of course, keeping in mind this is a small sample size and compared to other trials which may have a little bit larger sample size, we have to keep that in mind. Now as we mentioned all of these patients are still alive. So, we are still monitoring these patients. So, this number will continue to see those numbers increase over time. Patients are normally seen every 2 to 3 months. So we see waves of data coming in which as you know that’s why the median overall survival Cohort 2 at 9.9 months and Cohort 3 are a little bit behind just from a lag and when these patients were enrolled. So, we will see continued data update for the foreseeable future. But yes, we are very encouraged by it, but it is difficult to make direct head-to-head comparisons, let’s say, against dara or other therapeutics.
Yes. I think that’s some great comments John and I appreciate those and Wangzhi, John is correct, it’s difficult to compare apples-to-oranges with various studies, but I think it’s also informative to understand that historically in this space, we typically see overall survival of approximately 12 months and recently daratumumab really cracked the code with an overall survival of approximately 18 months. And so Dr. Friend is exactly correct. It’s always difficult to compare and contrast, especially when you take into consideration study and study design, et cetera. But I think it’s also clear to say that the single dose 12.5 millicurie performance we have seen north of 19 months early on is very, very encouraging and we look forward to seeing the performance with overall survival certainly in Cohort 2 and 3 as well which appear to be progressing along the same trend line.
Yes. Actually, my second question is what I mean I know it’s early and it’s hard to predict by, Brian, what’s your expectation for Cohort 3, because you mentioned the patients they are older, they are in worst condition to start with higher tumor burden and so far it looks that progression free survival is shorter than Cohort 1 and 2. So, what’s your expectation outlook for the overall survival, I mean, compared to Cohort 1, 2 or Cohort 3?
Wangzhi, that’s a great question. It’s a $1 million question maybe or more. It’s really hard to predict right. So, you called it these patients are on a different curb just because of the risk for progression and also being an older with a significantly more tumor burden. So, I guess, Alfred [ph] out there is a medical person to say time will tell. I can’t be more – it would just be a pure guess at this point in time.
Yes, fair enough. So, I also made the last question for the preclinical side, Jarrod you mentioned, you are exploring some combination studies, could you give us any additional color in terms of what kind of agents, chemotherapy, PD1 or anything any color on that?
Sure. I will give you only a limited amount of color obviously at this juncture for various reasons. But let it be said that essentially we are looking at combination treatments with some on-market drugs that are traditionally prescribed in a multiple myeloma setting. There is significant rationale for the ones we have selected so far to evaluate and that is why we are looking at those. With regard to the immunooncology, I will defer from responding to that directly other than to say, yes, they are immunooncology agents, some of them already known and some of them novel.
The only thing I would add to that, Wangzhi is as we continue to move forward with multiple myeloma as a single agent potentially and more likely dose and frequency of multiple doses, we will also take into consideration a more traditional approach to expanding beyond the relapsed refractory setting in that third, fourth or fifth line and moving further upstream into treatment paradigm in combination with other compounds. And we believe because of the very unique and novel mechanism of action that CLR 131 has potentially 1, 2 or a 3 dose sequence as we further dial-in on dose and frequency and that plays out. Along with the adverse event profile, we believe this compound maybe particularly suited to be used in combination with the classes of medications that Jarrod just mentioned.
Got it. And just I mean, for the clarity by the – when you say combination, my guess is actually if you consider you are not – your inclusion with the other drugs at the same time or is it missed out?
Yes, they are somewhat sequential. We can look at both as Jim was alluding to there, when you think about the dosing frequency, there is the option – opportunity to be able to dose essentially 131 dose the combination treatment, the other treatment and then come back in with an additional dose or two of 131. So obviously, that’s one scenario. The other one is you dose with a single infusion of 131 and then you do sequential just the follow-on dosing of the other agents. So either way, it can work.
Okay. Alright, great. Thank you very much for answering my questions.
Terrific. Our pleasure, Wangzhi.
Thank you. I am showing no further questions. So, now it’s my pleasure to hand the conference back over to Mr. Jim Caruso, Chief Executive Office for closing comments and remarks. Sir?
Terrific. Thank you and thank you for your support today on the conference call. We appreciate your interest in the company and we look forward to providing future updates. Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your participation on today’s conference. This does conclude the program and you may all disconnect. Everybody have a wonderful day.
