ITEM 13.   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company has negotiated exclusive licenses from MD Anderson to develop drug delivery technology for antisense and siRNA drug products. These licenses require, among other things, the Company to reimburse MD Anderson for ongoing patent expense. Based on its stock ownership in the Company, MD Anderson meets the criteria to be deemed a related party of the Company. For the year ended December 31, 2011, MD Anderson related party research and development expense was $544,000, consisting of (i) clinical trial expense of $149,000, (ii) license maintenance fees of $50,000 not capitalized in the technology license other asset and (iii) $345,000 in non-cash technology impairment expense related to the Company’s siRNA license (see Note 1.). As of December 31, 2011, the Company had (a) accounts payable and accrued license payments for current and past patent expenses to MD Anderson totaling $107,509 and (b) $41,000 in accrued related party research and development expense for the clinical trial (see Notes 5, 6 and 7).

 

As of December 31, 2011, the Company estimates reimbursable past patent expenses will total approximately $75,000 for the antisense license. The Company will be required to pay when invoiced the past patent expenses at the rate of $25,000 per quarter. In addition, the Company has decided to discontinue development of its siRNA technology, and consequently, does not anticipate incurring any significant additional exposure for future siRNA patent expense (see Note 1).
