Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company developing targeted anticancer therapies by utilizing tumor-associated biomarkers. Our therapeutic strategy is based on targeting the patient’s tumor(s) with treatments that will deliver drugs selectively based upon specific biochemical characteristics of the cancer cells comprising the tumor. Through a combination of licensing agreements, as well as mergers and acquisitions, we have acquired the rights to several technologies with the potential to more effectively treat cancers and significantly improve quality-of-life for patients. We believe that the development of targeted approaches to the administration of anticancer agents should lead to improved outcomes and reduced toxicity.

We expect to be a major participant in the oncology arena through the successful development and commercialization of innovative therapies which, as a result of their lower toxicity and greater efficacy, will increase patient survival rates and enhance patient quality of life. In targeting compounds for acquisition, we focus on candidates that have been previously tested in human clinical trials or animal models, as well as technologies that may improve the delivery or targeting of previously tested, and in some cases marketed, anticancer agents. Our senior management team and our panel of internationally-recognized clinical advisors have made significant contributions to the development of leading drugs currently used in cancer treatment. Management, in conjunction with our advisors, will evaluate in-licensing candidates based on several criteria, including development and registration strategies to be employed, commercialization opportunities and competitive technologies being developed elsewhere.

In the second quarter of 2008, we launched the Phase I/II clinical trial for Cordycepin (OVI-123) at two sites in the U.S. and, following completion of the Phase I portion of the trial, we planned to collect initial Phase II efficacy data in a small cohort of refractory leukemia patients who express the marker, TdT. In October 2009, after enrolling five patients in this clinical trial, we placed the clinical trial on administrative hold until such time that additional capital can be raised. We are in the process of reinitiating the Phase I/II trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose, and expect to start enrolling patients in the third quarter of 2011.

We have completed a Good Laboratory Practice (“GLP”) animal drug safety study in one species for our lead drug candidate from the L-nucleoside conjugate program (OVI-117), and are currently conducting a study of another species. We have also begun to compile the information necessary for the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), which is a key step to conducting human clinical trials. We expect to submit the IND application to the FDA for review by the end of 2011.

Based on our current capital position, the cost to further develop the drug compound, and the limited patent life remaining, we have elected to discontinue further development of our drug candidate, OVI-237, a liposomal formulation of a potent inhibitor of thymidylate synthase, and focus our efforts and resources on developing our other drug candidates.

We previously developed diagnostic kits through our former majority-owned German operating subsidiary, AdnaGen AG (“AdnaGen”), for several cancer indications, and marketed diagnostic kits in Europe for the detection of circulating tumor cells (“CTCs”) in patients with cancer. In October 2010, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Alere Holdings Bermuda Limited Canon's Court (“Alere Holdings”), whereby we sold all of our shares, representing approximately 78% of the total issued and outstanding shares of AdnaGen. Under the terms of the agreement, we and the other AdnaGen shareholders agreed to sell our respective shares of AdnaGen, and all AdnaGen related business assets, to Alere Holdings for: (i) a $10 million up-front payment; (ii) $10 million in potential milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of various balance sheet objectives within 24 months; and (iii) up to $63 million in potential milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of various clinical, regulatory and sales objectives within the next 36 months. We are entitled to receive our pro rata portion of the up-front and potential milestone payments.

To date, we have financed our operations principally through offerings of securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). We are using the proceeds from the sale of our shares in AdnaGen to fund on-going development activities for our drug candidate portfolio. We estimate that our cash reserves will be sufficient to permit us to continue at our anticipated level of operations for at least twelve to eighteen months. However, we anticipate we will need to raise additional capital to support our current operations and fund in-licensing and research and development programs and will further require additional financing at various intervals in the future. We can provide no assurance that additional funding will be available on a timely basis, terms acceptable to us, or at all.

If we are unsuccessful raising additional funding, our business may not continue as a going concern and if sufficient capital is not available, we may be required to delay, further scale back or eliminate one or more of our research and development or acquisition and in-licensing programs or to enter into license or other arrangements with third parties to commercialize products or technologies that we would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize ourselves. In such event, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected because we may be required to further scale back, eliminate, or delay development or acquisition efforts or product introductions or enter into royalty, sales, or other agreements with third parties in order to commercialize our products. Even if we do find additional funding sources, we may be required to issue securities with greater rights than those currently possessed by holders of our common stock. We may also be required to take other actions that may lessen the value of our common stock or dilute our common stockholders, including borrowing money on terms that are not favorable to us or issuing additional equity securities. If we experience difficulties raising money in the future, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operation will be materially adversely affected. See Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements.

During the last three fiscal years, we spent approximately $4.4 million on research and development, excluding discontinued operations.

Our Corporate Strategy

We have implemented a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to candidate identification and product development in the oncology treatment. Our strategic plan consists of the following elements:

A Practical, Rational Approach to Drug Development. Our management is well versed in the nuances associated with successful execution of the drug development and registration process. Registration strategies will be designed to address those issues which are critical to achieving success with respect to both the acceptability of a specific plan in the view of the FDA and the ability to achieve that plan with respect to the designated end points for that phase of the clinical trial. Furthermore, wherever possible these strategies will be designed to take advantage of the FDA’s accelerated approval paths for certain drugs and orphan drug designation.

A Disciplined Internal Development Strategy for Therapeutics. Besides opportunistically evaluating candidates for potential in-licensing or acquisition, we possess two proprietary technologies which we believe will produce candidates for potential out-licensing. Both technologies target aspects of cell biology specific to most cancer cells, but not found in healthy cells and we expect these technologies to produce an array of candidates. We believe that, in many instances, the potential candidates can address opportunities with unmet needs, such as cancers which are very resistant to therapy or have high recurrence rates. In other instances, we believe that the candidates may address opportunities where the effectiveness of existing chemotherapeutics is hampered by the toxic side effects which the drugs produce. In these circumstances, we believe that the use of our product candidates in combination with existing drug therapies administered at lower dosage levels could produce comparable or improved effectiveness with diminished side effects versus the single agent therapy.

In-licensing Candidate Selection and Acquisition Program. We believe that the relationships and reputation of the members of both our management and our clinical advisory board positions us to be exposed to many acquisition and in-licensing opportunities that would not normally be available to a company of our size. In many instances, the acquisition of biopharmaceutical companies by larger companies has resulted in drug programs being delayed or discontinued, due to such factors as loss of internal sponsorship (not created at the acquiring company), a perceived lack of market size (the desire for drugs with annual sales in excess of $1 billion) by the larger combined entity, or an overcrowded pipeline (too many product candidates to investigate, too many products to develop and a lack of sufficient resources). Indeed, the development of hundreds of potential oncology compounds that had been on the development track has been delayed or discontinued. We view many of these product candidates, together with some of the 400 plus compounds in the development pipeline, as potential candidates for in-licensing.

By leveraging the experience of our management team and clinical advisory board in selecting, developing and obtaining approval for many important chemotherapeutics, we believe that we will be able to discern those opportunities that truly possess the potential to become approved drugs within a targeted three-to-five year horizon. We involve our clinical advisory board in all major acquisition and in-licensing decisions. Given the experience and the active network of our management team and clinical advisory board, we expect to uncover many other promising candidates. Coupled with this, we generally attempt to structure our in-licensing deals so that if the in-licensed technology fails to perform as represented, we are able to recover any payments made by us in acquiring the technology.

Merger and Private Placement

On August 16, 2007, OncoVista-Sub, the private company conducting our cancer drug research and development, acquired an aggregate of 10,963,851 shares of our (formerly Aviation Upgrade Technologies, Inc.) common stock. On October 26, 2007, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with OncoVista Acquisition Corp. (“NewSub”), our then wholly owned subsidiary, and OncoVista-Sub. On November 13, 2007, NewSub merged with and into OncoVista-Sub with OncoVista-Sub remaining as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, OncoVista-Sub became our wholly-owned subsidiary and OncoVista-Sub’s existing business operations became our sole line of business. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of OncoVista-Sub for financial accounting purposes.

Our Drug Candidate Pipeline

The following table summarizes the status of our various pre-clinical and clinical development programs underway:

Program	Indication	Status	Planned Activities	Commercial Rights
Cordycepin (OVI-123)	Refractory TdT Positive Leukemias	In Phase I/II Clinical Development; Open IND; Orphan Drug Designation Received	Phase I/II Trial Reinitiated in Third Quarter of 2011	OncoVista-Sub

L-Nucleoside Conjugates (OVI-117)	Colon Cancer	Pre-Clinical Development; Initiated GLP animal safety studies	Anticipated IND Filing in the Fourth Quarter of 2011 to Commence Phase I Trial	OncoVista-Sub

The following sections discuss various aspects of our portfolio of drug candidates and their respective therapeutic characteristics in more detail.

Cordycepin (OVI-123) (TdT-Positive Refractory Leukemias)

The American Cancer Society estimated that 43,050 new leukemia cases were diagnosed in 2010 in the U.S. While almost 250,000 individuals are living with, or are in remission from, leukemia in the U.S., the annual mortality rate is nearly 22,000. The four broad classifications of leukemia are:

Acute lymphocytic leukemia (“ALL”);

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (“CLL”);

Acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”); and

Chronic myelogenous leukemia (“CML”).

Cordycepin, which was obtained through OncoVista-Sub’s acquisition of Aengus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in November 2005, was our first clinical-stage development compound. We are developing Cordycepin as a treatment option for certain leukemia patients that are either refractory to currently-used chemotherapeutics or have experienced a relapse. Cordycepin depends upon the presence of a DNA polymerase, known as terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), for our therapeutic activity. Approximately 95% of ALL patients express TdT, and approximately 10% of the AML cases express TdT. The range of CML cases that express TdT has been estimated at between 0% and 55% in scientific literature with an average of 21% among the cited articles. Generally, the TdT-positive patients that would either be refractory or have experienced a relapse are older adults.

Opportunity

Leukemia is a malignant cancer of the bone marrow and blood. Leukemia is characterized by the uncontrolled accumulation of blood cells and is categorized as either lymphocytic or myelogenous, either of which type can be acute or chronic. The terms lymphocytic and myelogenous denote the type of blood cell affected (lymphocytic involving lymphocyte cells in bone marrow and myelogenous implicating other blood cells). Acute leukemia is a rapidly progressing disease that results in the accumulation of immature, functionless cells in the marrow and blood, thereby resulting in a condition whereby the marrow often can no longer produce enough normal red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Anemia, a deficiency of red cells, develops in virtually all leukemia patients, and the lack of normal white cells impairs the body’s ability to fight infections. A shortage of platelets results in bruising and easy bleeding. Chronic leukemia, on the other hand, progresses more slowly and allows greater numbers of more mature, functional cells to be made.

Based on information obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (“SEER”) Program of the National Cancer Institute, while AML and CML have been cancers primarily of adults, with prevalence rates of 94% for AML in adults over the age of 20 and 97% for CML in adults over 20, ALL is more evenly distributed between adults and children. Approximately 65% of new cases diagnosed with ALL are in children under the age of 20, and while the treatment outcomes for ALL in children have generally been favorable with a five-year survival rate of 86% for children under the age of 15, the treatment response rates for adults have resulted in a lower overall five-year survival rate of 65%. Given the toxic profile of the treatment regimens for both adults and children, we believe that Cordycepin, as a TdT-dependent agent, could be used as part of a combination therapy regimen in order to minimize toxicities to both age groups while maintaining effectiveness.

Market

Currently, approximately 50 different drugs are being used to treat leukemia. In the past decade, several important new drugs and new uses for existing drugs have greatly improved cure rates or remission duration for some patients. Because of the likelihood of increased toxicity for standard- or lower-risk childhood ALL patients, most centers treat these patients with a less intense treatment regimen than the four- or five-dose treatment regimen used for higher risk patients This regimen generally results in a complete remission rate of 95%. For adult ALL patients, the treatment regimen is similar to the childhood treatment regimen; however, for the 60% to 80% demonstrating remission during induction, the median remission duration is approximately 15 months. Unfortunately, those patients experiencing a relapse can succumb within one year.

AML treatment should be sufficiently aggressive to achieve complete remission since partial remission offers no substantial survival benefit. Initial therapy typically results in 60% to 70% of adults attaining complete remission during the induction phase. However, with an overall five year survival rate of 20%, the long-term prognosis in general is not good for adult AML patients. Unfortunately, while AML is a cancer of older adults, because of the therapy’s toxicity (from myelosuppression and increased risk of infection), induction chemotherapy is not generally offered to the very elderly.

Gleevec®, the standard primary course of treatment in CML, inhibits an enzyme (bcr-abl tyrosine kinase) resulting from the defective gene translocation. By selectively inhibiting the activity of this enzyme, Gleevec® offers dramatic advantages to patients, including decreased side effects, few adverse effects on normal tissues and a very high response rate. The effectiveness and tolerance of older patients and the projections from the first several years of clinical trials suggest that the drug will prolong the duration of hematological remission and extend the patient’s life, when compared to former therapies.

Similar to Gleevec®, our Cordycepin selectively targets cells expressing a specific enzyme involved in the disease’s pathway. In this case, Cordycepin is targeting cells expressing TdT. With an addressable patient population consisting primarily of 46,000 individuals with CML, Gleevec®/Glivec® full year sales for 2010 were $4.3 billion, according to Novartis. With an addressable patient population for Cordycepin in leukemia patients nearly half the addressable population of Gleevec®, we believe that our product possesses a significant market.

Clinical Development

Cordycepin has been studied in a National Cancer Institute-sponsored Phase I clinical trial for treating TdT-positive ALL leukemia patients. TdT is a polymerase expressed in immature, pre-B, pre-T lymphoid cells, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma cells. TdT, and similar enzymes found in fungi and parasites, recognize Cordycepin and its analogues and add them onto growing nucleic acid chains thereby terminating synthesis of the nucleic acid and replication of the cell. Importantly, TdT expression in normal human tissue is limited to primitive lymphoid cells in the bone marrow and thymus, so most normal cells in the body are unaffected by the drug. In addition to effectively treating TdT-positive ALL and CML, Cordycepin can also be used to treat diffuse high-grade lymphoblastic lymphoma, which also expresses TdT.

In a biological system, Cordycepin is converted to 3’-deoxyinosine by the enzyme adenosine deaminase (“ADA”), so Cordycepin must be administered with an ADA inhibitor, such as deoxycoformycin (Nipent® or pentostatin) to protect Cordycepin and allow it to maintain its antileukemic activity. If the Phase I/II trial of Cordycepin demonstrates adequate safety and efficacy, we intend to develop an ADA-resistant analog of Cordycepin in order to eliminate the need for co-administration of deoxycoformycin.

The initial Phase I clinical trial data for the combination therapy was obtained in an ALL study of 14 patients between 1997 and 2000. No Cordycepin-related adverse events were noted. Biological activity in the last three patients of the escalating dosing study was noted by the transient clearing of peripheral blood blasts. Since May 2007, we have had an open IND and in addition, in July 2007, our request for Orphan Drug designation for Cordycepin was granted by the FDA.

We initiated a Phase I/II trial based on the “original” ADA-sensitive compound in the second quarter of 2008. The trial was being conducted at two U.S. centers (The Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts and the Cancer Therapy Research Center at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center at San Antonio, Texas) and was designed to enroll up to 24 patients in the first stage and up to 20 patients in the second stage. The primary objective of the 1st phase of the study is to determine the maximally tolerated dose (“MTD”) and the recommended dose (RD) of Cordycepin, given one hour following a fixed dose of the ADA inhibitor Pentostatin, in patients with refractory TdT-positive leukemia. The primary objectives of the 2nd phase of the study will be to determine the single and multiple dose pharmacokinetics of Cordycepin given one hour following a fixed dose of Pentostatin and to measure and quantify any clinical responses following administration of Cordycepin/Pentostatin at the recommended dose in 20 subjects Secondary objectives will include assessing the pharmacokinetics efficacy and safety at the MTD. We anticipate a total time period of 18 months for the trial during which patients will receive Cordycepin for three consecutive days repeated every 28 days. Patients will be eligible for re-treatment if all dose-related toxicities have been resolved by day 28 and there is no evidence of disease progression. Subjects may receive treatment until disease progression and will be followed for at least 30 days after the last administration of study drug. In October 2009, after enrolling five patients in this clinical trial, we placed the clinical trial on administrative hold until such time that additional capital can be raised. We are in the process of reinitiating the Phase I/II trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose, and expect to start enrolling patients in the third quarter of this year.

L-Nucleoside Conjugate (OVI-117)

Our L-nucleoside conjugate technology selectively targets certain cancer cell characteristics which make those cancer cells vulnerable to the actions of the drug, but leaves the healthy cells unaffected. In effect a new drug is created by conjugating an L-nucleoside to an existing chemotherapeutic agent that would be too toxic if delivered systemically. Several product candidates have been evaluated by us and one candidate (OVI-117) has been tested in animal models. We believe OVI-117 is a thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor with enhanced pharmacological properties which results in a retention of efficacy and a reduction of toxicity. OVI-117 has shown tumor growth inhibitory activity in human colon, breast and prostate tumors growing in animal models.

Compounds evolving from our L-nucleoside conjugate technology may take advantage of cell membrane changes that differentiate cancerous cells from healthy cells. This anomalous characteristic of cancer cell membranes may present a unique opportunity for targeting these cells with new products which are uniquely designed cytotoxic nucleosides that selectively enter cancerous cells. After entering the cancer cells, these compounds may be enzymatically cleaved to release their cytotoxic agents causing the death of the cancer cell. The membranes of healthy cells may deny the L-nucleoside entry, so that cancerous cells are preferentially killed. As a result, we believe that there should be reduced side effects associated with this class of drug. Drug candidates using L-nucleoside conjugate technology have demonstrated efficacy in cell lines for colorectal, pancreas, melanoma, leukemia and prostate cancers. OVI-117 has shown anti-tumor activity in animal models of several human cancers (including breast, prostate and colon), and our initial target indication is expected to be colorectal cancer.

The L-nucleoside conjugate technology was obtained through an exclusive, world-wide, royalty and milestone-bearing right and license to utilize the patents and technologies of Lipitek International, Inc. relating to L-nucleosides and their conjugates. Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D., Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, President, CFO and Secretary, is the ultimate beneficial owner of Lipitek International, Inc. and Lipitek Research LLC. Dr. Weis has agreed not to vote as a director in connection with any matter relating to Lipitek.

Opportunity

Colorectal cancer is the third most common form of cancer, and diagnosis of localized colon cancer is typically made by means of colonoscopy. Symptoms of colorectal cancer include:

Change in bowel habits as seen by changes in frequency (due to either constipation or diarrhea), changes in stool caliber and changes in stool consistency;

Blood in stools (melena, hematochezia);

Bowel obstruction (rare) by the tumor;

Anemia, with symptoms such as tiredness, malaise, pallor; and

Unexplained weight loss.

The absence of discernable symptoms in the early stages of this disease is one reason why periodic screening with fecal occult blood testing and colonoscopy is so widely recommended.

For 2010, in the United States, the American Cancer Society estimated there would be 142,570 new colorectal cancer cases of which colon cancer accounted for 102,900 cases. Colon cancer is a highly treatable and often curable disease when diagnosed early and localized to the bowel. When detected at its earliest stage (Dukes’ A) as an in situ tumor, the curative rate for colon cancer approaches 90%, or 5 times the curative rate for colon cancers detected at a later stage. Unfortunately, 40% to 50% percent of patients have metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis after many of the above symptoms have been exhibited. Surgery is the primary form of treatment and is typically followed by a regimen of chemotherapy. Despite the fact that a majority of patients have the entire tumor removed by surgery, as many as 50% to 60% will ultimately die from either the metastatic colon cancer or from a recurrence. Deaths from colorectal cancer were estimated to be 51,370 in 2010 in the United States.

Market

Standard treatment for patients with colon cancer has been open surgical resection of the primary and regional lymph nodes for localized disease. Surgery alone is curative in 25% to 40% of highly selected patients who develop resectable metastases in the liver and lung.

For 60% to 75% of the patients with colorectal cancer for whom surgery alone is insufficient to achieve a cure, adjuvant chemotherapy utilizing such extremely cytotoxic regimens as 5-FU based therapies, irinotecan or oxaliplatin are employed. However, due to the non-specific nature of these drugs (which attack both healthy and cancerous cells), the side effects profile includes severe diarrhea, neuropathy, nausea, neutropenia and fatigue. The median survival of these patients has improved from approximately 12 months in the mid-1990s to more than 20 months in 2003. The industry continues to research treatment methods that can improve upon both the length of survival and reduce the toxicity profiles.

Clinical Development

We have accumulated in vitro and in vivo data indicating that several of the L-nucleoside conjugates are effective against various types of cancer. One of our L-nucleoside conjugate candidates, OVI-117, is a conjugate of an L-nucleoside (L-uridine) and the highly toxic compound 5’-fluorodeoxyuridine monophosphate (FdUMP), a thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor. To date, OVI-117 has undergone two proof-of-concept studies in animals, as both a single agent and as a multi-agent combination therapy with oxaliplatin. We have completed one GLP animal drug safety study in one species with OVI-117 necessary for submission of an IND, and we are currently conducting a study of another species. We have begun to compile the IND for submission to the FDA, which is a key step to conducting human clinical trials. We are completing animal studies and preparing the IND submission and expects to launch a Phase I trial in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Liposomal Thymidylate Synthase (TS) Inhibitor (OVI-237) (solid tumors)

OVI-237 is a liposome encapsulated formulation of a potent thymidylate synthase inhibitor (TSI) with activity at picomolar concentrations. The drug was previously known as “OSI-7904L” and has been studied in a broad range of preclinical studies as well as several Phase I and Phase II human clinical trials. We were previously developing OVI-237 and had finalized a protocol and selected clinical sites to conduct a Phase II Study of OVI-237 monotherapy and combination therapy with cisplatin for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Based on our current capital position, the cost to further develop the drug compound, and the limited patent life remaining, we have elected to discontinue further development and focus our efforts and resources on developing our other drug candidates.

Tubulin Isotype-Specific Anti-mitotics

We were previously evaluating several candidates as part of our research and development in this area. We expected to identify a lead compound in a family of novel chemotherapeutic compounds capable of distinguishing among the different forms (isotypes) of tubulin, a subunit protein of microtubules which play a critical role in the lives of cells. When a cell divides, microtubules constitute the mitotic spindle, and when a cell is not dividing, microtubules form a sub-cellular network that is responsible for various cellular activities such as respiration, protein synthesis, waste elimination, etc. Drugs that bind to tubulin are capable of interfering with microtubule dynamics and thereby preventing cells from dividing. In March 2010, we terminated our license agreements and returned the intellectual property related to these technologies, in return we are no longer obligated to pay $520,000 in liabilities for minimum royalties associated with these licenses.

Drug Development Expertise and Capabilities

Dr. Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D., our Chief Executive Officer, and our clinical advisory board have extensive experience in developing chemotherapeutics. Dr. Weis brings over 25 years of extensive experience in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and is the founder of OncoVista-Sub and co-founder of ILEX Oncology.

In January 2011, Michael Moloney rejoined us as our Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Moloney previously served as our Director of Program Management and brings more than 24 years experience as a seasoned pharmaceutical and biopharma executive with experience in clinical research, drug development, operations and information technology.

Our clinical advisory board includes industry opinion leaders and oncologists with practical, relevant regulatory expertise, who can map out the very efficient registration strategies. Many individuals on the clinical advisory board have been instrumental in the development of such primary chemotherapeutics as Taxol®, Taxotere®, Oxaliplatin, Hycamtin®, Paraplatin®, Campath®, and Tarceva®.

Cancer drug development presents unique challenges in clinical development and registration. Obtaining marketing approval for a new drug depends upon the drug’s successful attainment of significant clinical endpoints such as increased overall survival and improvement in quality of life. According to the National Cancer Institute, less than 5% of cancer patients participate in clinical trials. This causes intense competition for trial participants, particularly in indications with the largest market potential (breast, lung, colon, and prostate cancer). The failure rate for drugs in clinical development is high. Fewer than one in 12 of all drugs entering clinical trials eventually gains approval according to the FDA. Not surprisingly, the attrition rate for anti-cancer drugs is even higher with roughly only one in 20 eventually getting to market from the clinic. Thus, successful clinical development and registration of a new drug depends, in large part, upon judicious selection of the lead compound, designation of demonstrable clinical end points and the availability of a sufficient pool of patients with appropriate characteristics. Our clinical advisory board gives us a critical advantage in these essential areas. Furthermore, in order to formulate a successful clinical development plan, it is imperative to know which drugs have already been approved and which drugs currently in clinical development are likely to be approved, since, ultimately, any newly approved drug will need to prove itself superior to, or at least equal to, previously-approved or about-to-be-approved therapies. Well constructed clinical development plans aimed at rapid marketing approval often take advantage of the FDA’s accelerated approval process which applies solely to diseases for which there is an unmet medical need. For cancers in which there are few treatment options and prognosis is poor, a new drug which shows even a small improvement in clinical endpoints may be approved based on Phase II clinical trial data. Taking advantage of this development path can save significant time and money in getting a drug to market. Our team is familiar with this path and plans to follow it as a part of our registration strategy when viable.

We believe that we will be able to monetize our product pipeline by efficiently identifying candidates, performing due diligence, negotiating in-license agreements and developing innovative clinical development and registration plans for strong product candidates. Before either acquiring or in-licensing any candidate, our Chief Executive Officer reviews the opportunity thoroughly with the clinical advisory board to determine the likelihood of successful product registration.

Collaborative Relationships and Partnerships

We anticipate that we will enter into strategic relationships with respect to the research and development, testing, manufacture, and commercialization of our product candidates. There are significant expenses, capital expenditures, and infrastructure involved in these activities. We believe that working together with strategic partners will expedite product formulation, production, and approval.

We have relationships with the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA), the Cancer Therapy and Research Center (CTRC), the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and MD Anderson Cancer Center, one of the leading cancer research institutes in the nation.

Intellectual Property

As of March 25, 2011, we held rights to 8 issued US and worldwide patents and more than 2 patent applications. Our ability to protect and use our intellectual property in the continued development and commercialization of our technologies and products and to prevent others from infringing on our intellectual property is crucial to our success. Our basic patent strategy is to augment our current portfolio by continually applying for patents on new developments and obtaining licenses to promising product candidates and related technologies. We also maintain various trade secrets which we have chosen not to reveal by filing for patent protection. Our issued patents and patent applications provide protection for our core technologies. In addition to the foregoing patent activity, several continuations-in-part, and international patents have been filed.

We also rely on trade secrets and unpatentable know-how that we seek to protect, in part, by confidentiality agreements. Our policy is to require our employees, consultants, contractors, manufacturers, outside scientific collaborators and sponsored researchers, board of directors, technical review board and other advisors to execute confidentiality agreements upon the commencement of employment or consulting relationships with us. These agreements provide that all confidential information developed or made known to the individual during the course of the individual’s relationship with us are to be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties except in specific limited circumstances. We also require signed confidentiality or material transfer agreements from any company that is to receive our confidential information. In the case of employees, consultants and contractors, the agreements provide that all inventions conceived by the individual while rendering services to us shall be assigned to us as our exclusive property. There can be no assurance, however, that all persons who we desire to sign such agreements will sign, or if they do, that these agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets or unpatentable know-how will not otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors.

Our success will also depend in part on our ability to commercialize our technology without infringing the proprietary rights of others. Although we have conducted freedom of use patent searches, no assurance can be given that patents do not exist or could not be filed which would have an adverse affect on our ability to market our technology or maintain our competitive position with respect to our technology. If our technology components, products, processes or other subject matter are claimed under other existing U.S. or foreign patents or are otherwise protected by third party proprietary rights, we may be subject to infringement actions. In such event, we may challenge the validity of such patents or other proprietary rights or we may be required to obtain licenses from such companies in order to develop, manufacture or market our technology. There can be no assurances that we would be able to obtain such licenses or that such licenses, if available, could be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Furthermore, the failure to either develop a commercially viable alternative or obtain such licenses could result in delays in marketing our proposed technology or the inability to proceed with the development, manufacture, or sale of products requiring such licenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. If we are required to defend ourselves against charges of patent infringement or to protect our proprietary rights against third parties, substantial costs will be incurred regardless of whether or not we are successful. Such proceedings are typically protracted with no certainty of success. An adverse outcome could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties and force us to curtail or cease our development and commercialization of our technology.

We aggressively seek U.S. and international patent protection for the chemical compounds, processes, and other commercially important technologies which we develop. While we own specific intellectual property, we also in-license related technologies determined to be of strategic importance to the commercialization of our products or to have commercial potential of their own. For example, to continue developing and commercializing our current products, we may license intellectual property from commercial or academic entities to obtain technology rights that are required for our research and development or commercialization activities.

Government Regulation

The Drug and Therapeutic Product Development Process

The FDA requires that pharmaceutical and certain other therapeutic products undergo significant clinical experimentation and clinical testing prior to their marketing or introduction to the general public. Clinical testing, known as clinical trials or clinical studies, is either conducted internally by life science, pharmaceutical, or biotechnology companies or is conducted on behalf of these companies by contract research organizations.

The process of conducting clinical studies is highly regulated by the FDA, as well as by other governmental and professional bodies. Below is a description of the principal framework in which clinical studies are conducted, as well as a description of the number of the parties involved in these studies.

Protocols. Before commencing human clinical studies, the sponsor of a new drug or therapeutic product must submit an investigational new drug application, or IND, to the FDA. The application contains what is known in the industry as a protocol. A protocol is the blueprint for each drug study. The protocol sets forth, among other things, the following:

who must be recruited as qualified participants;

how often to administer the drug or product;

what tests to perform on the participants; and

what dosage of the drug or amount of the product to give to the participants.

Institutional Review Board. An institutional review board is an independent committee of professionals and lay persons which reviews clinical research studies involving human beings and is required to adhere to guidelines issued by the FDA. The institutional review board does not report to the FDA, but its records are audited by the FDA. Its members are not appointed by the FDA. All clinical studies must be approved by an institutional review board. The institutional review board’s role is to protect the rights of the participants in the clinical studies. It approves the protocols to be used, the advertisements which we or contract research organization conducting the study proposes to use to recruit participants, and the form of consent which the participants will be required to sign prior to their participation in the clinical studies.

Clinical Trials. Human clinical studies or testing of a potential product are generally done in three stages known as phase I through phase III testing. The names of the phases are derived from the regulations of the FDA. Generally, there are multiple studies conducted in each phase.

Phase I. Phase I studies involve testing a drug or product on a limited number of participants, typically 24 to 100 people at a time. Phase I studies determine a product’s basic safety and how the product is absorbed by, and eliminated from, the body. This phase lasts an average of six months to one year.

Phase II. Phase II trials involve testing up to 200 participants at a time who may suffer from the targeted disease or condition. Phase II testing typically lasts an average of one to two years. In Phase II, the drug is tested to determine its safety and effectiveness for treating a specific illness or condition. Phase II testing also involves determining acceptable dosage levels of the drug. If Phase II studies show that a new drug has an acceptable range of safety risks and probable effectiveness, a company will continue to review the substance in phase III studies.

Phase III. Phase III studies involve testing large numbers of participants, typically several hundred to several thousand persons. The purpose is to verify effectiveness and long-term safety on a large scale. These studies generally last two to three years. Phase III studies are conducted at multiple locations or sites. Like the other phases, phase III requires the site to keep detailed records of data collected and procedures performed.

New Drug Approval. The results of the clinical trials are submitted to the FDA as part of a new drug application (“NDA”). Following the completion of phase III studies, assuming, the sponsor of a potential product in the United States believes it has sufficient information to support the safety and effectiveness of a product, it submits an NDA to the FDA requesting that the product be approved for marketing. The application is a comprehensive, multi-volume filing that includes the results of all clinical studies, information about the drug’s composition, and the sponsor’s plans for producing, packaging, and labeling the product. The FDA’s review of an application can take a few months to many years, with the average review lasting 18 months. Once approved, drugs and other products may be marketed in the United States, subject to any conditions imposed by the FDA.

Phase IV. The FDA may require that the sponsor conduct additional clinical trials following new drug approval. The purpose of these trials, known as phase IV studies, is to monitor long-term risks and benefits, study different dosage levels, or evaluate safety and effectiveness. In recent years, the FDA has increased its reliance on these trials. Phase IV studies usually involve thousands of participants. Phase IV studies also may be initiated by the company sponsoring the new drug to gain broader market value for an approved drug. For example, large-scale trials may also be used to prove effectiveness and safety of new forms of drug delivery for approved drugs. Examples may be using an inhalation spray versus taking tablets or a sustained-release form of medication versus capsules taken multiple times per day.

Biologics License Application. Once clinical trials are completed and the results tabulated and analyzed, a Biologics License Application (“BLA”) is submitted to the FDA. The application presents to FDA reviewers the entire history or the “whole story” of the drug product including animal studies/human studies, manufacturing, and labeling/medical claims. Before the FDA applies its scientific technical expertise to the review of the application, it will decide if the application gets a “priority review” or a “standard review.” This classification determines the review timeframe. A priority review is for a drug that appears to represent an advance over available therapy, whereas, a standard review is for a drug that appears to have therapeutic qualities similar to those of an already marketed product. Generally, an advisory committee (the Oncology Drug Advisory Committee, ODAC) will review the BLA and make a recommendation to the FDA. This outside advice is sought so that the FDA will have the benefit of wider expert input. The FDA usually agrees with the advisory committee decisions but they are not binding.

The FDA takes action on the BLA after their review is complete. There are three possible actions to be taken by the review team:

Approved – This indicates to a company that it may now market in the U.S.;

Not Approved –This tells a company that the product may not be marketed in the U.S. and is accompanied by a detailed explanation as to why; and

Approvable – This indicates that the FDA is prepared to approve the application upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. These drug products may not be legally marketed until the deficiencies have been satisfied, as well as any other requirements that may be imposed by the FDA.

The drug approval process is time-consuming, involves substantial expenditures of resources, and depends upon a number of factors, including the severity of the illness in question, the availability of alternative treatments, and the risks and benefits demonstrated in the clinical trials.

Orphan Drug Act. The Orphan Drug Act provides incentives to develop and market drugs (“Orphan Drugs”) for rare disease conditions in the United States. A drug that receives Orphan Drug designation and is the first product to receive FDA marketing approval for its product claim is entitled to a seven-year exclusive marketing period in the United States for that product claim. A drug which is considered by the FDA to be different than such FDA-approved Orphan Drug is not barred from sale in the United States during such exclusive marketing period even if it receives approval for the same claim. We can provide no assurance that the Orphan Drug Act’s provisions will be the same at the time of the approval, if any, of our products.

Other U.S. Regulations

Various Federal and state laws, regulations, and recommendations relating to safe working conditions, laboratory practices, the experimental use of animals, and the purchase, storage, movements, import, export, use, and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances, including radioactive compounds and infectious disease agents, used in connection with our research are applicable to our activities. They include, among others, the United States Atomic Energy Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, and Resources Conservation and Recovery Act, national restrictions on technology transfer, import, export, and customs regulations, and other present and possible future local, state, or federal regulation. The extent of governmental regulation which might result from future legislation or administrative action cannot be accurately predicted.

Other Regulatory Matter

Regulations imposed by authorities in other countries are a significant factor in the conduct of research, development, manufacturing and eventual marketing of our products.

Competition

In addition to the specified therapies relative to each cancer discussed earlier, we generally face competition from pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, academic institutions, governmental agencies, and private research organizations in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific personnel and consultants and in the development and acquisition of technologies. The pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are very competitive and are characterized by rapid and continuous technological innovation. We believe there are a significant number of potential drugs in preclinical studies and clinical trials to treat cancer that may result in effective, commercially successful treatments. In addition to most of the large pharmaceutical companies having small molecule programs, we are aware of large biotechnology companies, such as Amgen, Inc., Genentech, Inc., Biogen Idec Inc., and Eli Lilly & Co., which are developing small molecule therapeutics as treatments for cancer. Other, smaller companies in this field include: Allos, EntreMed, Threshold Pharmaceuticals and Sunesis.

We recognize that most of our competitors have a broader range of capabilities and greater access to financial, technical, scientific, business development, recruiting, and other resources. Additionally, third party-controlled technology, which may be advantageous to our business, could be acquired or licensed by our competitors, thereby preventing us from obtaining technology on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Because part of our strategy is to target markets outside of the United States through collaborations with third parties, we will compete for the services of third parties that may have already developed or acquired internal biotechnology capabilities or made commercial arrangements with other biopharmaceutical companies to target the diseases on which we have focused.

Employees

As of the date hereof, we have three full-time employees. Of our employees, two are executives and one is engaged in research and development. We have engaged the services of experts in clinical/regulatory, quality assurance, finance, and accounting as needed on an independent contractor basis to continue to advance our drug candidates through clinical studies.

Corporate Information

We were originally incorporated in Nevada on January 8, 1999 under the name, Aviation Upgrade Technologies, Inc. Our principal executive offices are located at 14785 Omicron Drive, Suite 104, San Antonio, Texas 78245 and our telephone number is (210) 677-6000.

ITEM 3 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

To the best knowledge of management, there are no litigation matters pending or threatened against us.

On December 17, 2007, an action was filed against OncoVista Sub, in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, entitled Bridge Ventures, Inc. v. OncoVista, Inc. and Centrecourt Asset Management. The action seeks damages for the alleged breach of a consulting agreement and seeks an order directing the issuance of warrants to purchase our common stock. We filed a motion to dismiss the action, and on April 3, 2008 the motion was denied. We have answered the complaint and asserted a counterclaim seeking compensation for the expenses that we incurred during the time that we worked with Bridge Ventures, Inc. The parties signed a settlement agreement, under which we paid $1,000 and are required to issue 45,000 shares of our common stock. As of March 24, 2011, we have not issued the shares required by the settlement agreement, and the expense related to the issuance of these shares was not significant.

On July 8, 2008, AdnaGen commenced a lawsuit against Innogenetics N.V. (“Innogenetics”) in the District Court of Hannover alleging that Innogenetics, a distributor of certain AdnaGen diagnostic kits in Europe, breached the exclusive distribution agreement that AdnaGen entered into with them. AdnaGen claimed that Innogenetics did not order the contractual minimum quantities of diagnostic kits required to maintain exclusivity. AdnaGen terminated the exclusivity and sought damages of approximately $550,000 (€369,000). Following a bench trial, on February 8, 2009, the District Court ruled in favor of Innogenetics ordering AdnaGen to pay Innogenetics’ approximately €12,000 ($16,000) in court costs and attorney fees.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC.

Although the forward-looking statements in this report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Report.

Overview

We previously developed diagnostic kits through our former majority-owned German operating subsidiary, AdnaGen, for several cancer indications, and marketed diagnostic kits in Europe for the detection of CTCs in patients with cancer. On October 28, 2010, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Alere Holdings, whereby we, and the other AdnaGen shareholders, agreed to sell our respective shares of AdnaGen, and all AdnaGen related business assets, to Alere Holdings for: (i) a $10 million up-front payment; (ii) $10 million in potential milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of various balance sheet objectives within 24 months; and (iii) up to $63 million in potential milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of various clinical, regulatory and sales objectives within next 36 months. We are entitled to receive our pro rata portion of approximately 78.01% of the up-front and potential milestone payments. In November 2010, we received $6.0 million, net of expenses and certain fees, as our share of the $10 million up-front payment.

As a result of the proceeds received pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement with Alere Holdings, we have eliminated substantially all of our outstanding debt. We have only one convertible note payable outstanding in the amount of $100, 000, which is in default and is due on demand. We are using the balance of the proceeds from the sale of our shares in AdnaGen to fund on-going development activities for our drug candidate portfolio. Additionally, we are evaluating several opportunities to license or acquire other compounds or diagnostic technologies that we believe will provide for treatments that are highly targeted, efficacious and with low or no toxicity.

Development Program

Our most advanced product candidate is Cordycepin (OVI-123) which is in Phase I/II clinical trials for refractory leukemia patients who express the enzyme terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT). We have received orphan drug designation from the FDA for Cordycepin which affords us seven years of market exclusivity once the drug is approved for marketing. We initiated a Phase I/II trial based on the “original” ADA-sensitive compound in the second quarter of 2008. The trial was initiated at two U.S. centers, The Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts and the Cancer Therapy Research Center at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center at San Antonio, Texas, and is designed to enroll up to 24 patients in the first stage and up to 20 patients in the second stage. In October 2009, after enrolling five patients in this clinical trial, we placed the clinical trial on administrative hold due to our limited capital resources. We are in the process of reinitiating the Phase I/II clinical trials to determine the maximum tolerated dose, and expect to start enrolling patients in the third quarter of 2011.

We have completed one GLP animal drug safety study in one species with OVI-117 necessary for submission of an IND, and we are currently conducting a study of another species. We have begun to compile the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for submission to the FDA, which is a key step to conducting human clinical trials. We are completing animal studies and preparing the IND submission and expect to launch a Phase I trial in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Research and development expenditures for the above projects totaled approximately $0.5 million and $1.5 million for the years ended 2010 and 2009, respectively. We expect we will incur additional expenses of between $2.0 million to $3.0 million to complete the current phases of development for the projects described above.

Other Research and Development Plans

In addition to conducting Phase I and Phase II clinical trials, we plan to conduct pre-clinical research to accomplish the following:

further deepen and broaden our understanding of the mechanism of action (MoA) of our products in cancer;

develop alternative delivery systems and determine the optimal dosage for different patient groups;

demonstrate proof of concept in animal models of human cancers; and

develop successor products to our current products.

Other Strategic Plans

In addition to developing our existing anti-cancer drug portfolio, we plan to obtain rights to additional drug candidates or diagnostic technologies through licensing, partnerships, and mergers/acquisitions. Our efforts in this area will, of course, be guided by business considerations (cost of the opportunity, fit with existing portfolio, etc.) as well as input from our clinical advisory board regarding likelihood of successful clinical development and marketing approval. Our goal is to create a well-balanced product portfolio including lead molecules in different stages of development and addressing different medical needs.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations are disclosed throughout this section where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

OncoVista Innovative Therapies, Inc.

Revenue Recognition. While we have not recognized revenues from continuing operations, we anticipate that future revenues will be generated from product sales. We expect to recognize revenue from product sales in accordance with SEC, Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” that requires we recognize revenue when each of the following four criteria is met: 1) a contract or sales arrangement exists; 2) products have been shipped or services have been rendered; 3) the price of the products or services is fixed or determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. We anticipate that our customers will have no right of return for products sold. Revenues are considered to be earned upon shipment.

Share-Based Compensation. We follow Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including grants of employee stock options based on estimated fair values. We have used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate grant date fair value for all option grants. The assumptions we use in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As such, as we use different assumptions based on a change in factors, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Preclinical Study and Clinical Trial Accruals. Substantially all of our preclinical studies and clinical trials are being performed by third-party clinical research organizations (“CROs”) and other outside vendors. For preclinical studies, we use the percentage of work completed to date and contract milestones achieved to determine the accruals recorded. For clinical trial accruals, we use the number of patients enrolled, period of patient enrollment and percentage of work completed to date to estimate the accruals. We monitor patient enrollment levels and related activities to the extent possible through internal reviews, correspondence and status meetings with CROs and review of contractual terms. Our estimates are dependent on the timeliness and accuracy of data provided by our CROs and other vendors. If we have incomplete or inaccurate data, we may under-or overestimate activity levels associated with various studies or clinical trials at a given point in time. In this event, we could record adjustments to research and development expenses in future periods when the actual activity levels become known. No material adjustments to preclinical study and clinical trial expenses have been recognized to date.

AdnaGen AG (a discontinued operation)

Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue in accordance with SEC, SAB No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” that requires we recognize revenue when each of the following four criteria is met: 1) a contract or sales arrangement exists; 2) products have been shipped or services have been rendered; 3) the price of the products or services is fixed or determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. Our customers have no right of return for products sold. Revenues are considered earned upon shipment.

Foreign Currency Translation. As previously described above, we previously sold all of our shares, representing approximately 78% of the total issued and outstanding shares, of AdnaGen. The financial position and results of operations of Adnagen were measured using the local currency (Euros “€”) as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiary were translated at current exchange rates as of December 31, 2009, and related revenue and expenses have been translated at average exchange rates through October 31, 2010. Equity transactions were translated at their historical rates. Any resulting translation adjustments were included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and as a component of deficit. Transaction gains and losses related to operating assets and liabilities are included in other income (expense).

Results of Operations

Years Ended December 31, 2010 and 2009

Research and development. Research and development expenses decreased by approximately $1.0 million, or 70%, to approximately $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in 2010 is primarily due to the scaling back of our research and development operations for substantially the entire year as a result of the unavailability of sufficient capital resources.

We expect research and development expenses to increase in 2011 primarily due to increases in expenditures related to reinitiating our patient enrollment in our Phase I/II for OVI-123, and conducting preclinical studies and the preparation and submission of an IND to the FDA for OVI-117.

General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.5 million, or 20%, to approximately $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to approximately $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. In 2010, the decrease was due primarily to reduced costs for legal and professional services, partially offset by an increase in stock compensation expense. The decrease was also partially offset by an increase in compensation as a result of a one-time payment in the amount of approximately $376,000 to Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D., our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, upon the successful completion of the sale of AdnaGen.

We expect general and administrative expense in 2011 to increase primarily due to an increase in salaries and benefits as we anticipate additional headcount in 2011 to support operations, and stock compensation expense for any restricted stock, options, or warrants granted during the year. Additionally, we expect to continue to utilize external consultants to provide staff augmentation.

Other Income (Expense). Other income (expense) increased 53% to income of approximately $110,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to expense of approximately $72,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. In 2010, the increase is due primarily to a gain from extinguishing $520,000 in liabilities related to minimum royalty payments as a result of signing a letter agreement and returning technology related to tubulin isotype-specific anti-mitotics, as well as a decrease of approximately $522,000 in interest expense as a result of the contingent debt restructure. These were partially offset by a loss on the derivative liability of $255,000 in 2010 related to the bridge round of debt financing, compared to a gain of $569,000 in 2009.

Discontinued Operations. The results of operations for our former majority-owned German operating subsidiary, AdnaGen are classified as discontinued operations. On October 31, 2010, we ceased operations at AdnaGen upon the sale to Alere Holdings. Revenues included in discontinued operations were $976,000 for the ten months ended October 31, 2010, a slight decrease as compared to approximately $982,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Revenues reflected royalties earned from the sale of diagnostic kits, licensing and research and development revenue and are summarized in the following table:

	2010		2009
Licensing	$	91,508	$	196,724
Diagnostic kits		823,755		762,642
Research and development, grant and other revenues		60,969		22,682
Total revenues	$	976,232	$	982,048

There was a decrease of $105,000, or 53%, in payments from license agreements, partially offset by an increase of approximately $61,000, or 8%, in sales of diagnostic kits, as well as an increase of approximately $38,000, or 169%, in research and development revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, AdnaGen recorded $15,000 (€11,000) and $105,000 (€75,000) in revenue from the sale of diagnostic kits to Biomarkers, respectively.

Operating expenses decreased by approximately $0.6 million, or 33%, to approximately $1.2 million for the ten month period ended October 31, 2010, as compared to $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in operating expense is due in part to including only ten months of operations in 2010 through the completion of the sale of AdnaGen, compared to 12 months of operations in 2009, as well as a decrease in the exchange rate for the period. Research and development expenses decreased by approximately $0.2 million, or 26%, to approximately $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to a reduction in compensation and laboratory supplies due to limited capital resources. Additionally, general and administrative expense decreased $0.5 million, or 42%, also due primarily to decreases in compensation expense, and to reduced costs for legal and professional services. In addition, the decrease in operating expense is due to a decrease in the exchange rate for the period.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations increased 1,593% to income of approximately $12.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to a loss of approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. In 2010, the increase is due primarily to a gain of $12.7 million from the sale of our shares in AdnaGen in October 2010, as well as a decrease of approximately $0.5 million, or 56%, in our loss from discontinued operations.

Net Income (Loss). As a result of the foregoing, our net loss decreased by approximately $14.8 million to income of approximately $10.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to a net loss of approximately $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Going Concern and Recent Events

Our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. We reported net income of approximately $10.0 million, and a net loss of $2.3 million from continuing operations, and net cash used in continuing operations of approximately $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, an accumulated deficit of approximately $18.3 million and total equity of approximately $1.7 million at December 31, 2010. The Company is also in default on certain loans and related accrued interest aggregating $143,638 at December 31, 2010.

In November 2010, we received approximately $6.0 million as our pro rata portion of the up-front payment from the sale of its shares of AdnaGen as described above. As a result of the stock purchase agreement with Alere Holdings, we now have sufficient capital to meet our anticipated operating cash requirements for the next 12 to 18 months.

Our ability to continue as a going concern depends on the success of management’s plans to achieve the following:

Continue to aggressively seek investment capital;

Develop our product pipeline;

Advance scientific progress in our research and development; and

Continue to monitor and implement cost control initiatives to conserve cash.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3.5 million compared to $109,000 at December 31, 2009. In order to preserve principal and maintain liquidity, our funds are primarily invested with the primary objective of capital preservation. Based on our current projections, we believe that our available resources and cash flow are sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for the next 12 to 18 months. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent our ability to further implement our strategic plan, continue to obtain additional debt and/or equity financing, and generate additional revenues from collaborative agreements.

To date, we have financed our operations principally through proceeds of offerings of securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We can provide no assurance that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Accordingly, we may not be able to secure the funding which is required to expand research and development programs beyond their current levels or at levels that may be required in the future. If we cannot secure adequate financing, we may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs or to enter into license or other arrangements with third parties to commercialize products or technologies that we would otherwise seek to develop and commercialize ourselves. Our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including:

Continued scientific progress in our research and development programs;

Costs and timing of conducting clinical trials and seeking regulatory approvals and patent prosecutions;

Competing technological and market developments; and

Our ability to establish additional collaborative relationships.

Accordingly, we may be required to issue equity or debt securities or enter into other financial arrangements, including relationships with corporate and other partners, in order to raise additional capital. Depending upon market conditions, we may not be successful in raising sufficient additional capital for our short or long-term requirements. In such event, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

Operating Activities. For the year ended December 31, 2010, net cash used in continuing operations was approximately $1.6 million compared to approximately $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. Cash used in continuing operations increased $1.0 million, or 156%, primarily due to a decrease in our net loss of approximately $14.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, to net income of $10.0 million, as compared to a net loss of approximately $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. In addition to a decrease in our net loss, operating activities were impacted by a loss in the current year for the derivative liability related to the bridge round of debt financing compared to a gain in the prior year. Additionally, accrued expenses were adjusted due to extinguishing $520,000 in liabilities related to minimum royalty payments as a result of signing a letter agreement returning the technology.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, net cash provided by discontinued operations was approximately $1.1 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. Cash provided by discontinued operations increased $1.3 million, or 480%, primarily due to a decrease in our net loss from discontinued operations of approximately $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, to a net loss of $0.4 million as compared to a net loss of approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Investing Activities. For the year ended December 31, 2010, net cash provided by investing activities from discontinued operations was approximately $5.9 million as compared to cash used $2,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Cash provided by investing activities increased $5.9 million, as a result of the proceeds of $6.0 million for our share of the first milestone payment from the sale of AdnaGen.

Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was approximately $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $0.9 million provided by financing activities from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2009. The change is primarily due to the repayment of approximately $0.9 million from the bridge round of debt financing completed in the current year, as well as loans from Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D., a member of the Company’s board of directors and its CEO, President, CFO and Secretary, and a significant shareholder (the “CEO”), and affiliated companies.

Cash used in financing activities from discontinued operations was approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $0.1 million provided by financing activities from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2009. The change is primarily due to the repayment of certain loans and notes payable.

Our outstanding material contractual obligations under lease and debt agreements as of December 31, 2010 are as follows:

	Payments Due by Period
	Within One Year		Two to Three Years		Four to Five Years		After Five Years		Total
Loans and notes payable	$	100,000	$	−	$	−	$	−	$	100,000
Operating leases and other		158,400		144,000		144,000		−		446,400
	$	258,400	$	144,000	$	144,000	$	−	$	546,400

In April 2009, we negotiated a contingent debt restructuring with three of our major creditors which if completed would result in exchanging approximately €4.3 million ($6.2 million) of debt and related accrued interest as of September 30, 2009, for an equity share of approximately 18% of AdnaGen. In addition, as part of the contingent restructuring, we agreed to forgive approximately $887,000 in receivables, advances, loans and related interest as of December 31, 2009, due from AdnaGen if completed. The debt restructuring was contingent on us raising a minimum of €2.0 million ($2.9 million) that was originally to be due no later than July 30, 2009. In July 2009, we received an extension until December 2009 to raise the additional capital required under the debt restructuring agreement, which date was subsequently extended to May 31, 2010. As a result of the sale of AdnaGen in October 2010, the contingently redeemable shares were issued and subsequently sold to Alere Holdings.

Loans and notes payable of AdnaGen in the principal amount of $5,640,962 had a contingent repayment plan. Under the plan, principal and accrued interest is payable at the maturity date only if AdnaGen is profitable and achieves certain positive shareholder’s equity, except with respect to debt in the principal amount of $716,650, for which only the principal is subject to a contingent repayment plan. The debt holders signed subordination letters related to the principal and interest providing that if AdnaGen is unable to repay, it would not lead to insolvency under applicable German law. If not repaid at maturity, the debt will continue to be outstanding until such time that AdnaGen had sufficient profits, liquidation surplus, or net assets to repay the outstanding principal, the debt was renegotiated, or AdnaGen became insolvent. Further, debt holders in the principal amount of $4,299,900 had the right to receive a share of AdnaGen profits under certain circumstances. Substantially all of the debt described above was included in the contingent debt restructuring described previously, and as a result of the sale of AdnaGen, was converted to equity and sold to Alere Holdings. Any remaining debt still outstanding with a contingent repayment plan was assumed by Alere Holding as part of the sale. At March 25, 2011, we have only one convertible note payable outstanding in the amount of $100,000, which is in default and is due on demand.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (ASU 2010-06), which amends the existing fair value measurement and disclosure guidance currently included in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to require additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Specifically, ASU 2010-06 requires entities to disclose the amounts of significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for these transfers, the reasons for any transfer in or out of Level 3 and information in the reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. In addition, ASU 2010-06 also clarifies the requirement for entities to disclose information about both the valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2010, except for additional disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not impact our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-17, revenue recognition – milestone method (Topic 605), which provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition to research or development arrangements. Under this guidance, we may recognize revenue contingent upon the achievement of a milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved, only if the milestone meets all the criteria within the guidance to be considered substantive. This amendment is effective on a prospective basis for research and development milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. This amendment is effective for us beginning January 1, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2010-17 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

As of December 31, 2010, the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that because of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2010.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control system is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Because of our inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. As a result of its assessment, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Based on the weakness described below, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2010.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that, there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of our assessment, management identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010:

While there were internal controls and procedures in place that relate to financial reporting and the prevention and detection of material misstatements, these controls did not meet the required documentation and effectiveness requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“SOX”) and therefore, management could not certify that these controls were correctly implemented. As a result, it was management’s opinion that the lack of documentation warranted a material weakness in the financial reporting process.

Our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions. Inadequate controls include the lack of procedures used for identifying, determining, and calculating required disclosures and other supplementary information requirements.

There is lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting, as our financial reporting and all accounting functions are performed by a consultant. This weakness is due to our lack of working capital to hire additional staff during the period covered by this report. We intend to hire additional accounting personnel to assist with financial reporting as soon as our finances will allow.

Remediation of Material Weaknesses

Due to the increasing number and complexity of pronouncements, emerging issues and releases, and reporting requirements and regulations, we expect there will continue to be some risk related to financial disclosures. However, the process of identifying risk areas and implementing financial disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting required under the SOX continues to be complex and subject to significant judgment and may result in the identification in the future of areas where we may need additional resources. Additionally, due to the complexity and judgment involved in this process, we cannot guarantee that we will not find or have pointed out to us either by internal or external resources, additional areas needing improvement or resulting in a future assessment that our controls are or have become ineffective as a result of overlooked or newly created significant deficiencies or unmitigated risks.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B – OTHER INFORMATION

On November 8, 2010, Paul Mieyal, Ph.D. resigned from our Board of Directors as a result of the repayment of the 2009 Bridge Notes. There were no disagreements between us and Mr. Mieyal.

A director so chosen or appointed will hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders. Each executive officer serves at the discretion of the Board of Directors and holds office until their successor is elected or until their resignation or removal in accordance with our articles of incorporation and by-laws.

Messrs. Ruckdaeschel and Brock are considered independent directors under Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, even though such definition does not currently apply to us as we are not listed on Nasdaq.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

During the year ended December 31, 2010, our Board of Directors held two meetings and took no actions by written consent.

Committees of the Board of Directors

On March 28, 2008, we established an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. Messrs Brock and Ruckdaeschel serve on both committees with Mr. Brock serving as Chairman of both committees, as well as being deemed the “audit committee financial expert.”

The committees are responsible, respectively, for the matters described below.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is responsible for the following:

reviewing the results of the audit engagement with the independent auditors;

identifying irregularities in the management of our business in consultation with our independent accountants, and suggesting an appropriate course of action;

reviewing the adequacy, scope, and results of the internal accounting controls and procedures;

reviewing the degree of independence of the auditors, as well as the nature and scope of our relationship with our independent auditors;

reviewing the auditors’ fees; and

recommending the engagement of auditors to the full Board of Directors.

A charter has been adopted to govern the Audit Committee. A copy of the charter can be found on our website at www.oncovista.com. The contents of our website, other than our Audit and Compensation Committee Charters, are not incorporated into this Report.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee determines the salaries and incentive compensation of our officers and provides recommendations for the salaries and incentive compensation of our other employees and consultants.

Our compensation programs to date are intended to enable the attraction, motivation, reward, and retention of the management talent required to achieve corporate objectives and thereby increase shareholder value. It has been our policy to provide incentives to our senior management to achieve both short-term and long-term objectives and to reward exceptional performance and contributions to the development of our business. To attain these objectives, the executive compensation program may include a competitive base salary, cash incentive bonuses, and stock-based compensation.

The Compensation Committee will establish on an annual basis, subject to the approval of our Board of Directors and any applicable employment agreements, the salaries that will be paid to our executive officers during the coming year. In setting salaries, the compensation committee intends to take into account several factors, including the following:

competitive compensation data;

If Dr. Weis’ employment is terminated without cause, he is entitled to one year’s base salary and one year’s health and life insurance that were in effect prior to his termination. No severance is payable if Dr. Weis’ employment is terminated for cause or if Dr. Weis’ resigns, retires or otherwise terminates his employment voluntarily.

We are party to an employment agreement, dated January 3, 2011, with Michael Moloney, pursuant to which we have agreed to employ Mr. Moloney as our Chief Operating Officer for a two-year initial term, with one-year renewable terms, for base salary of $180,000 per year, subject to adjustment, plus a $300 per month car allowance.

No severance is payable if Mr. Moloney’s employment is terminated for cause or if Mr. Moloney resigns, retires or otherwise terminates his employment voluntarily.

To assist us in conserving our cash, from January 1, 2009, we paid one-half, but accrued the other half of the salaries of the former employees of our U.S. operating company, OncoVista-Sub, through May 15, 2009, which are included in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010.

Stock Option Plans

We have adopted the following stock option plans:

2007 Stock Option Plan

In June 2007, OncoVista-Sub’s Board of Directors adopted the 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The Plan authorizes the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, and stock purchase rights (“Rights”) with respect to up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of our common stock to our employees and directors or our subsidiaries and individuals, including consultants, performing services for our benefit or for the benefit of a subsidiary. As a result of the Merger, the 2007 Plan was adopted by our Board of Directors and all options granted under the 2007 Plan were assumed by us. As of March 15, 2011, 1,087,600 non-qualified options under the 2007 Plan were issued.

Unless earlier terminated by the Board of Directors, the Plan (but not outstanding options or Rights) terminates in May 2017, after which no further awards may be granted under the 2007 Plan. The 2007 Plan will be administered by the full Board of Directors or, at the board’s discretion, by a committee of the board consisting of at least two persons who are “disinterested persons” defined under Rule 16b-2(c)(ii) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended (the “Committee”).

Options and Rights. Recipients of options or Rights under the Plan (“Optionees”) are selected by the board or the Committee. The board or Committee determines the terms of each option or right granted including (1) the purchase price of shares subject to options or Rights, (2) the dates on which options or Rights become exercisable and (3) the expiration date of each option or Right (which may not exceed ten years from the date of grant). The minimum per share purchase price of options granted under the 2007 Plan for Incentive Stock Options is the fair market value (as defined in the 2007 Plan) of one share of our common stock on the date the option is granted.

The Administrator may grant alone, in addition to or in tandem with options granted under the 2007 Plan, to eligible persons Rights to purchase options for such number of shares of our common stock at the price, within the period and subject to the conditions set forth in the award. The purchase is to be effected by execution of a Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator which may at the Administrator’s option grant us the right to repurchase the shares acquired at the original price paid in the event of the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser’s service for any reason. The agreement may provide that the repurchase option lapses in whole or installments as to a service provider other than an officer, director, or consultant, at a rate of at least 20% per annum over five years from the date of purchase.

Option and Rights holders have no voting, dividend or other rights as stockholders with respect to shares of our Common Stock covered by options or Rights prior to becoming the holders of record of such shares. The purchase price upon the exercise of options or Rights may be paid as determined by the Administrator at the time of exercise in cash, by certified bank, cashier’s check or promissory note, by tendering stock held by the Option or Rights holders, as well as by cashless exercise either through the surrender of other shares subject to the option or through a broker. The total number of shares of our common stock available under the 2007 Plan and the number of shares and per share exercise price under outstanding options and Rights will be appropriately adjusted in the event of any stock dividend, reorganization, merger or recapitalization or a similar corporate event.

The Board of Directors may at any time terminate the 2007 Plan or from time to time make such modifications or amendments to the 2007 Plan as it may deem advisable and the board or Committee may adjust, reduce, cancel and re-grant an unexercised option if the fair market value declines below the exercise price except as may be required by any national stock exchange or national market association on which our common stock is then listed. In no event may the board, without the approval of stockholders, amend the 2007 Plan to increase the maximum number of shares of our common stock for which options or Rights may be granted under the 2007 Plan or change the class of persons eligible to receive options or Rights under the 2007 Plan.

Subject to limitations set forth in the 2007 Plan, the terms of option and Rights agreements will be determined by the board or Committee but may not be longer than ten years, and need not be uniform.

2007 Independent Directors’ Plan

In June 2007, OncoVista-Sub’s Board of Directors adopted the 2007 Stock Option Plan for Independent and Non-Employee Directors (the “Directors Plan”) for the purpose of promoting our interests and those of our stockholders by increasing the proprietary and vested interest of such Directors in our growth and performance. As a result of the Merger, our Board of Directors assumed the Directors Plan and all options granted under the Directors Plan were assumed by us.

The Directors Plan relates to a maximum of 500,000 shares of our common stock for which options may be granted to Eligible Directors who are defined as Independent or Non-Employee Directors. An Independent Director is defined under the Directors Plan as a director meeting the requirements of Section 10A(m) under the Exchange Act and as defined by any exchange or market on which the common stock is traded or is listed. A Non-Employee Director is defined by reference to our definition in Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. As of March 15, 2011, 40,000 options were issued under the Directors Plan. The Directors Plan is to be administered by the board of directors or the Compensation Committee of the board of directors, which is authorized to adopt, interpret, and amend regulations under the Directors Plan.

The Directors Plan specifies that each newly elected Independent or Non-Employee Director (“Eligible Director”) upon first election or appointment to the board will receive options to purchase 10,000 shares and immediately following each Annual Meeting of Stockholders each director who has been an Eligible Director for more than 12 months immediately preceding and including such meeting and the Chairman of the Board, if an Eligible Director, for the same period shall be granted an additional option to purchase 15,000 shares.

The exercise price of an option is to be the Fair Market Value, as defined in the Directors Plan. Payment shall be made in cash or unless otherwise determined by the board of directors, in shares of our common stock. The option may be exercised in whole or in part during the period commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and ending on the date of termination of the option, which is the earlier of a date one year from the date the optionee is no longer a Director or ten years from the date of grant.

The Directors Plan provides for adjustment in the exercise price and shares subject to the Directors Plan and outstanding options in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, subdivision or combination of the common stock or change in corporate structure.

2004 Stock Option Plan

In October 2004, OncoVista-Sub’s Board of Directors adopted the 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “2004 Plan”). As a result of the Merger, our Board of Directors assumed the 2004 Plan and all options granted under the 2004 Plan were assumed by us. The 2004 Plan authorized the grant of options with respect to up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to our employees, directors and consultants or to our affiliates. As of March 15, 2011, 480,000 non-qualified options were issued under the 2004 Plan.

As the 2004 Plan was never approved by the shareholders, we have only granted non-qualified options under the 2004 Plan. As such, the 2004 Plan permits us to grant only options which do not qualify as incentive stock options (“Non-Qualified Options”). Unless earlier terminated by the shareholders, the 2004 Plan will terminate in October 2014.

Financial Statement Treatment of Options. We intend to expense the fair equity-based awards, such as stock options and warrants, granted in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America equal to the fair value of the vested portion of the options as Rights using the Black-Scholes option pricing method on each grant date. Modifications such as lowering the exercise prices or extending the expiration dates could also result in material additions to our non-cash expenses.

To the extent outstanding options or Rights are repriced, such repricing will result in charges to our earnings equal to the difference between (i) the fair value of the vested portion of the options or Rights granted, utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model on each grant date and (ii) the charges to earnings previously made as a result of the initial grants of the options or Rights being repriced, which will have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share.

Federal Income Tax Consequences. The following is a brief discussion of the Federal income tax consequences of transactions under the 2004 Plan and 2007 Plan. This discussion is not intended to be exhaustive and does not describe state or local tax consequences.

Incentive Options. No taxable income is realized by the optionee upon the grant or exercise of an ISO, except as noted below with respect to the alternative minimum tax provided no reduction in the exercise price has been made since the date of grant except as a result of an anti-dilution event. If common stock is issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an ISO, and if no disqualifying disposition of such shares is made by such optionee within two years after the date of grant or within one year after the transfer of such shares to such optionee, then (i) upon sale of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the option price will be taxed to such optionee as a long-term capital gain and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss, and (ii) no deduction will be allowed to the optionee’s employer for Federal income tax purposes.

Except as noted below for corporate “insiders,” if our common stock acquired upon the exercise of an ISO is disposed of prior to the expiration of either holding period described above, generally (i) the optionee will realize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of such shares at exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of such shares) over the option price paid for such shares and (ii) the optionee’s employer will be entitled to deduct such amount for Federal income tax purposes if the amount represents an ordinary and necessary business expense. Any further gain (or loss) by the optionee will be taxed as short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss), as the case may be, and will not result in any deduction by the employer.

Subject to certain exceptions for disability or death, if an ISO is exercised more than three months following termination of employment, the exercise of the option will generally be taxed as the exercise of a Non-Qualified Option.

For purposes of determining whether an optionee is subject to any alternative minimum tax liability, an optionee who exercises an ISO generally would be required to increase his or her alternative minimum taxable income, and compute the tax basis in the stock so acquired, in the same manner as if the optionee had exercised a Non-Qualified Option. Each optionee is potentially subject to the alternative minimum tax. In substance, a taxpayer is required to pay the higher of his/her alternative minimum tax liability or his/her “regular” income tax liability. As a result, a taxpayer has to determine his potential liability under the alternative minimum tax.

Non-Qualified Options. Except as noted below for corporate “insiders,” with respect to Non-Qualified Options: (i) no income is realized by the optionee at the time the option is granted; (ii) generally, at exercise, ordinary income is realized by the optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the option price paid for the shares and the fair market value of the shares, if unrestricted, on the date of exercise, and the optionee’s employer is generally entitled to a tax deduction in the same amount subject to applicable tax withholding requirements; and (iii) at sale, appreciation (or depreciation) after the date of exercise is treated as either short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss) depending on how long the shares have been held.

Special Rules Applicable To Corporate Insiders. As a result of the rules under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, “insiders” (as defined in the Exchange Act), depending upon the particular exemption from the provisions of Section 16(b) utilized, may not receive the same tax treatment as set forth above with respect to the grant and/or exercise of options. Generally, insiders will not be subject to taxation until the expiration of any period during which they are subject to the liability provisions of Section 16(b) with respect to any particular option. Insiders should check with their own tax advisers to ascertain the appropriate tax treatment for any particular option.

Benefits. Inasmuch as awards to all participants under the 2004 Plan and 2007 Plan will be granted at the sole discretion of the board or Committee, such benefits under the 2004 Plan and 2007 Plan, as applicable, are not determinable.

We believe that the 2004 Plan and 2007 Plan are important in attracting and retaining individuals with good ability to service us, motivating their efforts and serving our business interests, while reducing the cash payments which we would otherwise be required to make to accomplish such purposes.

Director Compensation

Effective December 6, 2010, independent members of our Board of Directors are entitled to $3,500 quarterly as remuneration for service as a member of the board plus reimbursement for travel expenses. The following table sets forth director compensation for the year ended December 31, 2010.

ITEM 13 – CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Transactions with Related Persons

Our policy is to enter into transactions with related parties on terms that, on the whole, are no more favorable, or no less favorable, than those available from unaffiliated third parties. Based on our experience in the business sectors in which we operate and the terms of our transactions with unaffiliated third parties, we believe that all of the transactions described below met this policy standard at the time they occurred.

2009 Bridge Notes

On January 15, 2009, we and OncoVista-Sub completed an initial closing of a bridge round of debt financing, whereby we and OncoVista-Sub issued secured promissory notes (the “Bridge Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $750,000, in exchange for cash equal to the face amount of such Bridge Notes, to accredited investors as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act. Of the Bridge Notes issued, Bridge Notes in the principal amount of $350,000 were sold to affiliates of Dr. Weis and Bridge Notes in the principal amount of $300,000 were sold to Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited. Dr. Weis is Chairman of our board, Chief Executive Officer, President, and Secretary as well as one of our significant beneficial owners. Wexford Capital LLC is the investment sub-advisor of Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited which beneficially owns approximately 11% of our outstanding common stock. Dr. Paul Mieyal, a representative of Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited, was appointed to our Board of Directors commencing March 30, 2009.

The Bridge Notes bear interest at 10% per annum, increasing to 18% in the case of an event of default, and mature on the earlier of (i) January 15, 2010, (ii) the date upon we consummate a financing, the aggregate gross proceeds of which equal or exceed $5,000,000 (a “Qualified Financing”), and (iii) the acceleration of the maturity of the Bridge Notes as described therein.

In connection with the bridge financing, we issued to holders of the Bridge Notes detachable warrants (the “Warrants”), exercisable for a period of five years from the date of grant, of up to an amount or number of the securities offered in the first Qualified Financing, at an exercise price per security equal to the product of (x) and (y), where (x) equals the offering price per security in the first Qualified Financing and where (y) equals 0.90, subject to adjustment in certain instances. In the event that no Qualified Financing shall be consummated by us prior to the expiration of the Warrants, the Warrants shall be exercisable for up to an aggregate of 750,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, subject to adjustment in certain instances.

One of the holders of the Bridge Notes has been granted the right to appoint its own nominee to our Board of Directors, which right shall expire upon such time that the Bridge Note is repaid in full.

In January 2010, we obtained the consent of the holders of the Bridge Note financing to extend the maturity date from January 15, 2010 until the earlier of July 15, or such time that we obtain a “Qualified Financing.” We revised the term “Qualified Financing” from aggregate gross proceeds of which equal or exceed $5,000,000 to $3,000,000, and increased the interest rate from 10% to 12%. Additionally, we extended the expiration date for the Warrants to July 15, 2014, and reduced the exercise price to $0.10 per share. In July 2010, we again obtained the consent of the holders of the Bridge Note financing to extend the maturity date from July 15, 2010 until the earlier of December 31, 2010, or such time that we obtain a Qualified Financing, and we further increased the number of warrants to be issued by 50%, extending the expiration date to December 31, 2014.

In November 2010, we used the proceeds from the sale of our shares in AdnaGen to repay the outstanding principal and interest to the holders of the Bridge Notes.

Lipitek Agreements

In October 2004, we entered into a License Agreement with Lipitek International Inc. (“Lipitek International”), pursuant to which Lipitek International has granted to us an exclusive, world-wide, royalty and milestone-bearing right and license to utilize the patents and technologies of Lipitek International relating to L-Nucleosides and their conjugates.

On November 17, 2005, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Lipitek International and Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D. pursuant to which Lipitek has granted us an option to purchase all membership interests in Lipitek Research LLC for a purchase price of $5,000,000, payable in installments. As of March 15, 2010, we have paid Lipitek International a total of [$550,000 toward this agreement and we have accrued $250,000..] On or before July 28, 2012, we are required to pay the balance of the purchase price. Prior to the full payment of the purchase price, we have the option, upon 30 day’s written notice, to abandon the purchase of Lipitek Research LLC upon forfeiture of all amounts already paid. In addition, Lipitek International and Dr. Weis agreed to use reasonable efforts to ensure that we have the right of first negotiation with respect to any Lipitek International intellectual property related to anti-cancer, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic and anti-malarial activities (except that derived from South American plants and vegetation) and to intellectual property arising out of any current research or research contract of Lipitek Research LLC. Dr. Weis who is Chairman of our board and our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, has agreed not to vote as a director in connection with any matter relating to Lipitek.

Pursuant to a three-year Lease Agreement with Lipitek International which expires December 2013, we lease laboratory space for approximately $12,000 per month.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

OncoVista Innovative Therapies, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of OncoVista Innovative Therapies, Inc. and subsidiaries (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of OncoVista Innovative Therapies, Inc and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, on October 28, 2010, the Company sold its majority-owned German operating subsidiary.

Note 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

OncoVista Innovative Therapies, Inc. (“OVIT”) is a biopharmaceutical company developing targeted anticancer therapies by utilizing tumor-associated biomarkers. OVIT’s product pipeline is comprised of advanced (Phase II) and early (Phase I) clinical-stage compounds, late preclinical drug candidates and early preclinical leads. OVIT is not committed to any single treatment modality or class of compound, but believes that successful treatment of cancer requires a tailored approach based upon individual patient disease characteristics.

Through its former subsidiary, AdnaGen AG (“AdnaGen”), OVIT previously developed diagnostic kits for several cancer indications, and marketed diagnostic kits in Europe for the detection of circulating tumor cells (“CTCs”) in patients with cancer. In December 2005, OncoVista acquired a controlling (51%) interest in AdnaGen, a research and development company based in Langenhagen, Germany. AdnaGen focuses on the development of innovative tumor diagnostics by utilizing its proprietary technology for the detection and analysis of rare cells. In December 2007, OncoVista purchased an additional 34% equity interest in AdnaGen for $599,241. In June 2008, OncoVista purchased an additional 10% equity interest in AdnaGen, for $70,374. As a result of these purchases, OncoVista owned approximately 95% of AdnaGen. In April 2009, OVIT negotiated a contingent debt restructuring with three of its major creditors which resulted in OncoVista owning approximately 78% of AdnaGen (see Note 6).

On October 28, 2010, OVIT entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Alere Holdings Bermuda Limited Canon's Court (“Alere Holdings”), whereby OVIT sold all of its shares, representing approximately 78% of the total issued and outstanding shares of AdnaGen to Alere Holdings. Under the terms of the agreement, OVIT and the other AdnaGen shareholders agreed to sell their respective shares of AdnaGen, and all AdnaGen related business assets, to Alere Holdings for: (i) a $10 million up-front payment; (ii) $10 million in potential milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of various balance sheet objectives within 24 months; and (iii) up to $63 million in potential milestone payments contingent upon the achievement of various clinical, regulatory and sales objectives within the next 36 months. OVIT is entitled to receive its pro rata portion of the up-front and potential milestone payments. In November 2010, OVIT received $6.0 million, net of expenses and certain fees, as its share of the $10 million up-front payment.

OVIT is using the proceeds from the sale of its shares in AdnaGen to fund on-going development activities for its drug candidate portfolio. Additionally, OVIT is evaluating several opportunities to license or acquire other compounds or diagnostic technologies that it believes will provide for treatments that are highly targeted with low or no toxicity.

At December 31, 2010, OVIT had two full time employees. OncoVista, Inc. (“OncoVista”), OVIT’s U.S. operating subsidiary, had one full-time employee.

Note 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ONCOVISTA INNOVATIVE THERAPIES, INC.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OVIT, OncoVista and through October 31, 2010, the accounts of AdnaGen (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

As a result of the sale of AdnaGen, the operations of AdnaGen have been presented as discontinued operations. The assets and liabilities of AdnaGen were consolidated as of December 31, 2009, as the sale of AdnaGen was not contemplated at that time.

F-8

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates during 2010 and 2009 include the valuation of warrants and stock options granted for services or compensation, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities, and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing operating losses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. At December 31, 2010, the balance exceeded the federally insured limit by approximately $3.1 million. At December 31, 2009, the balance did not exceed the federally insured limits. The Company historically has not incurred any losses related to this credit risk.

Equipment

Equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Costs greater than $1,000 are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, which range from three to fourteen years.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment periodically and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As a result of these reviews, no impairment charge has been recorded during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Revenue Recognition

While the Company has not recognized revenues from continuing operations, the Company anticipates that future revenues will be generated from product sales. The Company expects to recognize revenue from product sales in accordance with SEC, Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” that requires the Company recognize revenue when each of the following four criteria is met: 1) a contract or sales arrangement exists; 2) products have been shipped or services have been rendered; 3) the price of the products or services is fixed or determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company anticipates that customers will have no right of return for products sold. Revenues are considered to be earned upon shipment.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, in which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.

F-9

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits recognized for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Significant management judgment is required in developing the provision for income taxes, including the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowances that might be required against the deferred tax assets. Management evaluates its ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts its valuation allowance when it believes that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized.

Research and Development Expenses

The Company’s research and development expense consists of costs associated with discovery research and product development. Discovery research is comprised of employee costs, laboratory materials and supplies, and research-related overhead allocations. Included in product development are clinical trial costs, including expenses associated with contract research organizations, contract manufacturing, employee costs, pharmacology studies, and costs to obtain, maintain and defend patents. These costs are expensed as incurred.

Regulatory Matters

Regulations imposed by federal, state and local authorities in the United States, as well as authorities in other countries, are a significant factor in the conduct of research, development, manufacturing and eventual marketing of the Company’s products. In the United States, drugs, biological products, and medical devices are regulated by the United States Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, which is administered by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Net Loss per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including the effect of share equivalents. Common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of certain common stock purchase warrants and stock options.

As the Company has had losses from continuing operations for the last two years, all unvested restricted stock, stock options and warrants are considered to be anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the following shares have been excluded since their inclusion in the computation of diluted EPS would be anti-dilutive:

	2010		2009
Stock options outstanding under our various stock option plans		949,000		650,000
Warrants		4,306,712		3,681,712
Total		5,255,712		4,331,712

For purposes of the computation of net income per share, unvested restricted shares (Note 11) are considered contingently returnable shares. These shares, although classified as issued and outstanding, are not included in basic weighted average number of shares until all necessary conditions are met that no longer cause the shares to be contingently returnable. These contingently returnable shares are to be included in diluted weighted average number of shares as of the beginning of the period in which the conditions are satisfied.

F-10

Share-Based Compensation

All share-based payments to employees are recorded and expensed in the statements of operations under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” ASC 718 requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including grants of employee stock options based on estimated fair values. The Company has used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate grant date fair value for all option grants.

Share-based compensation expense is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the year, less expected forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (ASU 2010-06), which amends the existing fair value measurement and disclosure guidance currently included in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to require additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Specifically, ASU 2010-06 requires entities to disclose the amounts of significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the reasons for these transfers, the reasons for any transfer in or out of Level 3 and information in the reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. In addition, ASU 2010-06 also clarifies the requirement for entities to disclose information about both the valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2010, except for additional disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-17, Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method (Topic 605), which provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition to research or development arrangements. Under this guidance, the Company may recognize revenue contingent upon the achievement of a milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved, only if the milestone meets all the criteria within the guidance to be considered substantive. This amendment is effective on a prospective basis for research and development milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. This amendment is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2010-17 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ADNAGEN (a discontinued operation)

Accounts Receivable

There has been no identifiable bad debt expense during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, the Company has not recorded any allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance is generally determined based on an account-by-account review. Accounts are charged off when collection efforts have failed and the account is deemed uncollectible. The Company does not charge interest on accounts receivable.

F-11

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist of finished goods in the form of select and detect cancer kits. During the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, there were no write-downs to net realizable value due to obsolescence.

Contingently Restructured Liabilities

On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance related to Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, the provisions of which, among others, require the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (previously referred to as minority interest), as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity for all periods presented. In addition, the amount of net income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest is included in consolidated net income or loss on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Certain noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities meet the definition of mandatorily redeemable financial instruments if the ability to redeem the interest is outside of the control of the consolidating entity.

As described in Note 6, the Company negotiated a contingent debt restructuring with three of its major creditors. As such, the contingently redeemable noncontrolling interest was shown as a separate caption between liabilities and equity (mezzanine section). The carrying value of the contingently redeemable noncontrolling interest reflected the amount of debt and related interest that would be payable should the Company not meet the requirements of the debt restructuring agreement.

Customer Concentration

For the ten months ended October 31, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company derived a substantial portion of its revenues from three customers accounting for 71% of the Company’s revenue (50%, 11% and 10%), and four customers accounting for 63% of the Company’s revenue (26%, 17%, 10% and 10%), respectively. One customer accounted for approximately 94% of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2010, and two customers accounted for approximately 75% of the balance (44% and 31%) at December 31, 2009.

Foreign Currency Translation

In October 2010, the Company sold all of its shares, representing approximately 78% of the total issued and outstanding shares of AdnaGen. The financial position and results of operations of AdnaGen were measured using the local currency (Euros “€”) as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiary were translated at current exchange rates as of December 31, 2009, and related revenue and expenses have been translated at average exchange rates through October 31, 2010. Equity transactions were translated at their historical rates. Any resulting translation adjustments were included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and as a component of deficit. Transaction gains and losses related to operating assets and liabilities are included in other income (expense).

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income or loss is comprised of net earnings or loss and other comprehensive income or loss, which includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net earnings, primarily foreign currency translation adjustments.

F-12

Note 3. GOING CONCERN AND RECENT EVENTS

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company reported net income of approximately $10.0 million, and a net loss of $2.3 million from continuing operations, and net cash used in continuing operations of approximately $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, an accumulated deficit of approximately $18.3 million and a total equity of approximately $1.7 million at December 31, 2010. The Company is also in default on a certain loan and related accrued interest aggregating $143,638 at December 31, 2010 (See Note 6). In November 2010, the Company received approximately $6.0 million as its share of the up-front payment from the sale of its shares of AdnaGen described in Note 1. As a result of the stock purchase agreement with Alere Holdings, the Company now has sufficient capital to meet its anticipated operating cash requirements for the next 12 to 18 months.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on management’s ability to further implement its strategic plan, obtain additional capital, principally by obtaining additional debt and/or equity financing, and generate additional revenues from collaborative agreements or sale of pharmaceutical products.

In March 2010, the Company terminated its license agreements and returned the intellectual property related to technologies associated with tubulin isotype-specific anti-mitotics and a proprietary database of tubulin structures. As a result, the Company is no longer obligated to pay $520,000 in liabilities for minimum royalties associated with these licenses as the licensor released the liability. Accordingly, in March 2010, the Company reversed the accrued liability which had been included in current liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

F-13

Note 6. DEBT

As a result of the Stock Purchase Agreement with Alere Holdings, the Company has eliminated substantially all of its outstanding debt using a portion of the Company’s share of proceeds received from the initial milestone payment under the Stock Purchase Agreement. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company’s contingently redeemable shares were issued and subsequently sold to Alere Holdings. The Company also repaid the principal and accrued interest to the holders of the 2009 Bridge Note, as well as the loans and advances from Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D., Chairman of the Company’s board of directors and its CEO, President, CFO and Secretary, and a significant shareholder (the “CEO”) and affiliates of the CEO.

The Company had the following outstanding loans and notes payable at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

	2010			2009
Unsecured loans payable to third parties with interest at 10% and due on demand (1)	$	–		$	1,341,062

(1)

In April 2009, the Company negotiated a contingent debt restructuring with three of its major creditors.

(2)

Amount relates to loans and advances from the CEO and companies affiliated with the CEO.

(3)

Includes Bridge Notes in the principal amount of $350,000 to affiliates of Dr. Weis and Bridge Notes in the principal amount of $300,000 to Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited. Wexford Capital LLC is the investment sub-advisor of Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited which beneficially owns approximately 11% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Prior to the July 2010 amendment described below, the notes bore interest at 10% per annum increasing to 18% in the case of an event of default and mature on the earlier of (i) January 15, 2010, (ii) the date upon which the Company consummates a financing, the aggregate gross proceeds of which equal or exceed $5,000,000 (a “Qualified Financing”), and (iii) the acceleration of the maturity of the Bridge Notes as described therein.

(4)

The debt holder, at its option, may convert the principal and any accrued interest into shares of common stock at a price of $2.50 per share. The Company is currently in default.

(5)

Amount relates to an unsecured note payable in the amount of €500,000 with a contingent repayment plan for which principal is payable at the maturity date only if AdnaGen is profitable and achieves certain positive shareholder’s equity.

In January 2010, the Company issued contingently redeemable shares of AdnaGen to certain holders of debt with a principal balance of $4,924,312 (€3,435,646) together with accrued interest of $1,251,998 (€873,503) as of December 31, 2009, which was recorded as contingently redeemable noncontrolling interest.

In January 2010, the Company obtained consent from the holders of the 2009 Bridge Note financing to extend the maturity date from January 15, 2010 until the earlier of July 15, 2010 or such time that the Company obtains a “Qualified Financing.” The term “Qualified Financing” was also revised from aggregate gross proceeds which equal or exceed $5.0 million to $3.0 million and the interest rate was increased from 10% to 12%. In July 2010, the Company received an extension until December 31, 2010, and increased the number of shares to be issued upon the exercise of warrants by 375,000, and also extending the exercise period to December 31, 2014.

F-14

In March 2010, the Company also obtained consent from the holders of the Bridge Note financing to formalize agreements for loans and advances from the CEO and affiliates of the CEO to the Company with terms identical to the Bridge Notes issued in January 2009, as amended in January 2010.

Note 7. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY AND FAIR VALUE INFORMATION

The Company determined that warrants issued in connection with the bridge round of debt financing entered into by the Company in January 2009 required liability classification due to certain provisions that may result in an adjustment to the number shares issued upon settlement (See Note 11).

In January 2010, the Company amended certain terms of the 2009 Bridge Note financing agreement, which did not affect the liability classification of the associated warrants. In consideration for the modifications, the Company extended the expiration date for the warrants to July 15, 2014, and the exercise price of the warrants was reduced to $0.10 per share. The modification of the terms of the warrants resulted in an additional expense of $67,172 at the amendment date. In July 2010, certain terms for the warrants were further modified to increase by 50% the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and extend the expiration date for the warrants to December 31, 2014. The modification of the terms of the warrants resulted in an additional expense of $129,603 at the amendment date. The estimated fair value of the derivative liability was $301,405 and $46,704 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate fair value of its warrant liabilities. Key assumptions used to apply these models are as follows:

Expected term	4-5 years
Volatility	86.5%
Risk-free interest rate	0.43%-1.515%
Dividend yield	0%

Fair value measurements

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2010, are as follows:

	Value		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)

Derivative liability	$	301,405	$	–	$	301,405	$	–

The fair value framework requires a categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets and liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

There were no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents and the above mentioned derivative liability as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The fair values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and third-party debt approximate the carrying amounts due to the short term nature of these instruments.

Note 8. COLLABORATION, LICENSE AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

OSI Pharmaceuticals

In November 2007, the Company entered into a license agreement with OSI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“OSI”) for a Phase II clinical drug candidate, OSI-7904L (the “License Agreement”). OSI granted the Company an exclusive, royalty-bearing, worldwide license, with the right to grant sublicenses, with respect to OSI’s rights to OSI-7904L.

In consideration of the Company’s current capital position, the cost to further develop the drug compound, and the limited patent life remaining, management has elected to discontinue further development and focus their efforts and resources on developing the Company’s other drug candidates. The management of the Company does not believe there will be any penalty under the current agreement or any future milestone payment obligations as a result of the termination.

Note 9. LEASES, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Lease Obligations

In January 2005, the Company entered a five-year non-cancelable lease with an affiliate of Dr. Alexander Weis, one of the Company’s directors and the Company’s CEO, President, CFO, and Secretary for office and laboratory space (see Note 10). This lease expired in December 2009, and the Company continued to occupy this space on a month-to-month basis. In January 2011, the Company entered a three-year lease with an affiliate of the CEO. As of December 31, 2010, our minimum lease payment requirements are as follows:

2011	$	158,400
2012		144,000
2013		144,000
Thereafter		–
Total	$	446,400

Total rent expense amounted to approximately $98,000 and $411,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Employment Contracts

The Company has employment contracts with certain executive officers. The contracts have commitment periods of between one and two years, and are subject to automatic renewal for one year terms. Compensation provided under the contracts range from $183,600 to $322,000, as well as bonuses of up to 30% to 40% of base salary. Bonuses are based on performance milestones, which have not yet been met; therefore, bonuses have not been paid or accrued for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. In the event of termination without cause, the contract provides for a severance of salary and benefits continuation for periods of between three months and one year.

Legal Matters

On December 17, 2007, an action was filed against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, entitled Bridge Ventures, Inc. v. OncoVista, Inc. and Centrecourt Asset Management.

Note 10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

OncoVista

Alexander L. Weis, Ph.D., Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and its CEO, President, CFO and Secretary, and a significant shareholder, is a beneficial owner of Lipitek International, Inc. and Lipitek Research, LLC. The Company leases its laboratory space from Lipitek, Inc. under a three-year lease agreement (see Note 9). Rent is based on reasonable and customary rates as if the space were rented to a third party.

On November 17, 2005, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Lipitek and Dr. Weis, under which Lipitek granted the Company an option to purchase all membership interests in Lipitek Research, LLC (Lipitek Research) for a purchase price of $5.0 million, which shall be payable quarterly based upon revenues of Lipitek Research up to $50,000 per quarter. Through December 31, 2010, the Company has paid $550,000 toward this agreement and has accrued $250,000, representing one quarterly payment for 2009 and all of the 2010 amounts, which are included in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. The Company paid $250,000 and $0 toward the agreement which is included as a component of research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Prior to the full payment of the purchase price, the Company has the option, upon 30 days written notice, to abandon the purchase of Lipitek Research and would forfeit the amounts already paid. All intellectual property developments by Lipitek Research through the term of the agreement or 2012, whichever is later, shall remain the Company’s property, irrespective of whether the option is exercised. In addition, the Company will receive 80% of the research and development revenue earned by Lipitek while the agreement is in place. In 2010 and 2009, the Company did not recognize any revenue from its share of Lipitek revenues.

For the potential acquisition of Lipitek, the Company determined that, under SEC Regulation S-X, Rule 11-01(d) (“11-01”), and ASC 805. Lipitek was classified as a development stage company and thus was not considered a business. As a result, purchase accounting rules did not apply. The Company also cannot determine with any certainty at this time, if it will exercise the option to purchase Lipitek in the future.

AdnaGen (a discontinued operation)

Dr. Weis is also a beneficial owner of Biomarkers LLC (“Biomarkers”). In September 2008, AdnaGen entered into an exclusive distribution and license agreement with Biomarkers. Pursuant to the terms of the license agreement, AdnaGen granted Biomarkers the right to distribute diagnostic kits in North America. In January 2009, AdnaGen also entered into an exclusive distribution and license agreement with Biomarkers granting Biomarkers the exclusive right to commercialize the AdnaGen diagnostic kits in South America and the Middle East. Pursuant to the terms of these license agreements, AdnaGen also granted Biomarkers the right to appoint sub-licensees at Biomarkers sole discretion. These agreements continue through December 2010, unless terminated by either party under the terms of the agreement. In 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded revenue of approximately $15,000 (€11,000) and $105,000 (€75,000) from the sale of diagnostic kits to Biomarkers, respectively.

Stock Option Plans

In May 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2007 Stock Option Plan (“2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, and restricted stock awards to employees, directors and consultants who provide services to OncoVista. The Company has reserved 3,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2007 Plan.

In May 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the 2007 Stock Option Plan for Independent and Non-Employee Directors (the “Directors Plan”). Options granted under the Directors Plan shall be nonstatutory options and may be granted to nonemployee directors at an exercise price equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. The maximum term of options granted under the Directors Plan is ten years. The term of the Directors Plan is ten years. The Company has reserved 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Director Plan.

The Company granted options to its officers and employees under its 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”). The 2004 Plan is authorized to grant options for up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock to employees, directors, and consultants who provide service to the Company. Options granted have a vesting schedule with a term ranging from grant date to four years and become fully exercisable based on specific terms imposed at the date of grant. All awards pursuant to the 2004 Plan shall terminate upon the termination of the grantees employment for any reason.

All option grants are expensed in the appropriate period based upon each award’s vesting terms, in each case with an offsetting credit to additional paid in capital. Under the authoritative guidance for share based compensation, in the event of termination, the Company will cease to recognize compensation expense. There is no deferred compensation recorded upon initial grant date, instead, the fair value of the share-based payment is recognized ratably over the stated vesting period. Vesting periods for the Company’s stock option awards during 2010 and 2009 included the following: annually over one year, annually over four years, monthly for twenty-four months, and monthly for thirty-six months. The Company granted 299,000 and 1,010,000 options for services having fair values of $68,762 and $1,054,560 in 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Note 12. INCOME TAXES

The Company has not incurred any U.S. Federal or state tax expense since its inception. Significant deferred tax assets at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

	2010			2009
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforwards, United States	$	1,245,000		$	5,206,000
Impairment loss		607,000			607,000
Share-based compensation and consulting		2,081,000			1,650,000
Other		23,000			20,000
Total deferred tax assets		3,956,000			7,483,000
Less: valuation allowance		(3,956,000	)		(7,483,000	)
Net deferred tax assets	$	−		$	−

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on consideration of these items, management has determined that enough uncertainty exists relative to the realization of the deferred income tax asset balances to warrant the application of a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2010 and 2009.

At December 31, 2010, OncoVista, Inc. had U.S. tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.7 million available to offset future taxable income which will expire at various dates through 2030. The utilization of tax net operating losses may be limited due to the change in ownership under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. AdnaGen AG tax attributes from its separately filed tax return in Germany is subject to the rules and regulations of that country.

The actual tax benefit differs from the expected tax benefit for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 (computed by applying the U.S. Federal Corporate tax rate of 34% to income before taxes) are as follows:

	2010			2009
Expected tax expense (benefit)		34.0	%		(34.0	)%

Permanent differences:
Translation loss and other items		–	%		7.9	%
Rate differential and impact of foreign subsidiary		1.2	%		6.3	%
Change in valuation allowance		(35.2	)%		19.8	%
Consolidated effective tax rate		–	%		–	%

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and Texas jurisdictions, and is no longer subject to tax examinations for years prior to 2004.
