NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at September 30, 2014, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2013 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized sales revenue of $-0- and incurred a net loss of $2,139,679. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $12,808,087. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's planned business. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that may affect the fair values of its financial instruments. The Company utilizes various types of financing to fund our business needs, including preferred stock with warrants attached and other instruments not indexed to our stock. The Company is required to record its derivative instruments at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings in accordance with ASC 815.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with ASC 820, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of September 30, 2014, on a recurring basis:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had nor is it expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, or statements.

In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP.  In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had` been in the development stage. The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively. The early adoption of ASU 2014-10 is permitted which removed the development stage entity financial reporting requirements from the Company.

NOTE 5 – ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Pursuant to the applicable Codification literature, the Company has concluded it is probable that it will pay $85,738 in liquidated damages pursuant to the registration rights clause in certain of the securities sold in fiscal years 2008 and 2009, the Company was required to file a registration statement by January 27, 2009. The Company failed to do so until April 7, 2009, resulting in liquidated damages of 2% per month of the gross proceeds, which approximated $1.8 million as of that date. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company’s registration statement covering the securities was declared effective by the SEC. Each holder is entitled to $47.32 per share owned. The Company has resolved to pay the liquidated damages in shares of Common Stock valued at $1.00 per share, pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

NOTE 6 – NOTE PAYABLE

In January 2013, the Company received $25,000 in cash pursuant to a short-term promissory note with a related party. In March 2013, the Company received $5,000 in cash pursuant to a short-term promissory note with the same related party. The notes did not bear interest. The Company assessed the imputed interest and found the balance to be immaterial. In April 2013, the balance on the notes was repaid in full.

NOTE 7 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

On May 7, 2013, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate anti-dilution price protection from its Series A Preferred Stock and associated derivative liability. For the Nine-months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred a change in fair value of derivative of $0 and $3,926, respectively.

NOTE 8 – PREFERRED STOCK

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) has been authorized by resolutions adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors and set forth in a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights (“Certificate of Designation”), filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on November 26, 2008, as last amended on July 17, 2013, which contains the designations, rights, powers, preferences, qualifications and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock. The shares of Preferred Stock are fully paid and non-assessable. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has issued 3,255 shares of Series A Preferred Stock convertible into an aggregate of approximately 3,831,576 shares of common stock.

Rank

The Preferred Stock ranks(i) senior to the common stock and any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock either specifically ranking by its terms junior to the Preferred Stock or not specifically ranking by its terms senior to or on parity with the Preferred Stock, (ii) on parity with any class or series of the Company’s capital stock specifically ranking by its terms on parity with the Preferred Stock, and (iii) junior to any class or series of capital stock specifically ranking by its terms senior to the Preferred Stock, in each case, as to payment of dividends or as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary. The approval of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock is required in order for the Company to issue any capital stock with rights on parity with or senior to the Preferred Stock.

Dividends

The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to receive annual cumulative per share dividends of 6.5% of the liquidation preference of the Preferred Stock, out of funds legally available, prior to any payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock or any other class of stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock. Such dividends are payable in cash or shares of common stock, at the option of the Company, semiannually on the last business day of February and August of each year (each a “Dividend Payment Date”), commencing in February 2009 with respect to the period from issuance through such date. In September 2014, the Company issued 1,206,387 shares of common stock for accrued dividends. As of September 30, 2014, an aggregate of 796,181 shares of common stock are issuable for accrued dividends. The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to share ratably with the holders of the common stock in any dividend declared on the common stock.

 
8

 
 
Dividends on the Preferred Stock will accrue whether or not the Company has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not such dividends are declared. Dividends accumulate to the extent they are not paid on the Dividend Payment Date to which they relate. Dividends that are due in cash and which are not paid within (5) business days of the Dividend Payment date shall bear interest until paid at the default rate. According to Delaware law, the Company may declare and pay dividends or make other distributions on its capital stock only out of legally-available funds. In addition, no dividends or distributions may be declared, paid or made if the Company is or would be rendered insolvent by virtue of such dividend or distribution. The Company may not (i) pay any dividends in respect of any shares of capital stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock (including the common stock), other than dividends payable in the form of additional shares of the same junior stock as that on which such dividend is declared, or (ii) redeem any shares of capital stock ranking junior to the Preferred Stock (including the common stock), unless and until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock have been, or contemporaneously are, declared and paid in full.

Conversion

At the election of the holder thereof, each share of Preferred Stock will be convertible into common stock, at any time after issuance, at the Conversion Rate, as it may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the Certificate of Designation. The Conversion Rate initially will be 1,177 shares of common stock ($.85 per share) for each Share of Preferred Stock, which has a stated value of $1,000 per share. If the Company issues or sells any shares of its common stock (or options, warrants or convertible securities, convertible or exchangeable into shares of common stock) hereinafter, a “Subsequent common stock Issuance”), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted so that the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of each share of preferred stock shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing $1,000 by the price per share of common stock (or the conversion price per share in the case of a sale of options, warrants or convertible securities) sold in such Subsequent common stock Issuance.

The Conversion Price is also subject to adjustment from time to time in the event of (i) the issuance of common stock as a dividend or distribution on any class of the Company’s capital stock; or (ii) the combination, subdivision or reclassification of the common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion. Payment of accumulated and unpaid dividends will be made upon conversion to the extent of legally-available funds.

PART I, ITEM 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this report contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions as of the date of this filing. The cautionary statements made in this document should be read as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this document. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. Factors that could cause differences include those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section as well as discussed elsewhere herein.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources at September 30, 2014, as Compared with December 31, 2013
 
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had $1,177,769 and $1,241,397, respectively, of cash on hand.   The Company’s had positive working capital of $303,138 at September 30, 2014 compared to $819,765 as of December 31, 2013, resulting from increases in accounts payables as a result of net cash used in operations of ($1,436,164).  SignPath had an accumulated deficit of $12,808,087 as of September 30, 2014.
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, SignPath sold 1620.5 Units consisting of its securities at a price of $1,000 per Unit.  The Units sold in 2014 consisted of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Units.  Each Unit consists of (i) one share of 6.5% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into 800 shares of common stock (equivalent to $1.25 per share of common stock) following the effective date of its Registration Statement (the “Effective Date”) subject to adjustment, and (ii) Warrants to purchase 400 shares of common stock at $1.875 per share for a five-year period following the Effective Date of a registration statement including the underlying securities.  The Company received gross proceeds of $1,620,000 and incurred stock offering costs of $247,465 related to such offerings during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
 
The Company has no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any officer, director or shareholder as to any future financing, either equity or debt.  The Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and it is possible the Company may never reach profitability.  Therefore, the Company will require additional capital resources and financing to implement its business plan and continue its operations.  The Company’s current burn rate for salaries, research programs and professional fees averages about $60,000 per month.  Thus, it is expected that the Company currently has sufficient cash on hand to operate through the next 12 months.  Management believes it has enough funds to complete its pre-clinical trials.  Management believes that it has enough funds to complete its pre-clinical trials.  If the Company receives favorable results, Management believes it will have the ability to raise additional funds to complete INDs.  In view of general economic conditions, there can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, that any affiliate will provide additional investments in the Company or that adequate funds for our operations will otherwise be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us.
 
Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was ($1,436,164) compared to cash used of ($1,372,905) during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  This resulted from a net loss of $2,139,679 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, offset by common stock and options issued for services of $237,384, warrants modification valued at $13,132, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $452,999.  This compared to a loss of $1,671,998 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, offset by common stock and options issued for services of $684,025, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $(389,002).
 
The Company had net cash provided by financing activities of $1,372,536 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as a result of the $1,620,000 received in a Private Placement, reduced by $247,464 of offering costs.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had $2,683,774 of net cash provided by financing activities as a result of the $3,194,250 received from a Private Placement of Preferred Stock less the stock offering costs of $510,476.
 
 
19

 
 
As a result of the foregoing, the Company’s cash decreased by $63,628 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
 
The financial statements included in this report have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate our continuance as a going concern.  The Company has had no revenues and has generated losses from operation.  As set forth in Note 2 to the audited Financial Statements, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable, if ever.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Plan of Operations
 
Manufacturing of GMP grade synthesized curcumin is continuing at Sami labs, in India. Over 4.3 kilograms of the active principle was sent to Dalton Pharma Services in Canada for analytical and continuing stability testing. Aliquots of curcumin are sent to Polymun Scientific in Austria to manufacture the formulated GMP grade liposomal curcumin product. The product is further analyzed for endotoxins in Gibraltar Labs in New Jersey, and for release kinetics at Northern Lipids in Canada. The final product has been used in 45 human normal subjects in a Phase Ia ascending dose trial in Austria. Based upon these data, a Phase Ib clinical trial is ongoing in Austria: accruing as of this date 12 cancer patients who progressed on standard of care therapy.
 
In the US, following discussions and suggestions by the FDA, an IND for liposomal curcumin in a Phase Ib trial was approved in the second quarter 2014. The first indication will be for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who have progressed on standard of care therapy.
 
Following allowance of the protocol by the FDA, a second liposomal curcumin indication, for progressive Parkinson’s disease will be submitted to the FDA for a Phase II trial at Thomas Jefferson University.
 
A veterinary application of liposomal curcumin in dogs with progressive cancer was initiated during the 1stQ 2014 at U.C. Davis and is continuing: 6 dogs are under study.
 
Preclinical Non-GLP formulated product underwent repeat efficacy trials in mice with xeno-transplanted human NSCLC tumors with a 52% reduction in growth of tumor observed after six weeks Non-clinical scale-up manufacturing of GMP grade Liposomal-PLGA-curcumin (Curcumin-ER): and extended release formulation at Sami labs in India and research is planned for the 2nd Q 2015.
 
The liposome composed of DMPC and DMPG was initially discovered to prevent curcumin induced cardiac arrhythmias in in vitro, in ex vivo studies in rabbit models, and in vivo in rabbit models challenged with clinically approved QTc prolonging anticancer drugs, Crizotinib and Nilotinib. Additional  studies of anticancer QTc prolonging drugs and liposome mitigation are current in the 4th quarter, 2014. Additional exploration of the molecular mechanism of action of the liposome, its component lipids, and metabolites in the cardiac potassium channel is planned for the 4th quarter 2014 in a collaborative study with Avanti Polar Inc., IPS Therapeutique, Canada. The optimum compound of oral formulations with a eutectic mixture and DMPC,DMPG, LysoPC ,LysoPG and EGPG are being studied at IPS therapeutic to decide upon a lead compound to take into the clinic. Animal toxicology  at Nucro Technics Inc. in 1st q 2015 will follow.
 
The effects of liposomal curcumin on mercury poisoning in mice are being explored  at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia in the 4th Q 2014.
 
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
In the normal course of business, our financial position is routinely subject to a variety of risks, including market risk associated with interest rate movement. We regularly assess these risks and have established policies and business practices intended to protect against these and other exposures. As a result, we do not anticipate material potential losses in these areas.
 
As of September 30, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,177,769.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.
 
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, our management has validated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the " Exchange Act"), as of September 30, 2014.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports 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 (ii) our disclosure and controls are designed 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 principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  This conclusion is based on the fact that due to limited resources, the Company is unable to maintain adequate segregation of duties.
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.  As defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 5, a material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. A clear and concise segregation of duties is important to maximize checks and balances so that no single individual has control over two or more phases of a transaction or operation. A strong segregation of duty also is critical to reduce effectively the risk of mistakes and inappropriate actions preventing fraud and discourages collusion. It can be difficult for small businesses to always have a clear separation of duties because there simply are not enough personnel to cover each and every process and procedure. Ultimately, checks and balances need to be in place as a supportive measure to the business operations, but also as a fraud prevention measure as well. Because we have limited financial personnel, and limited resources, compliance with segregation of duties and proper oversight of control requirements is extremely difficult.  In connection with the evaluation referred to in the foregoing paragraph, we have identified no change in our internal control of financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
