ITEM 1 – BUSINESS

 

Corporate History

 

We were incorporated on May 10, 2010 in the State of Nevada.

 

Overview

 

We are a research-based company that intends to discover and develop medical treatments for humans, specifically targeting the treatment of:

 

-   Cancer

-    Fibromyalgia

-   Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

-    Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

-   Neuropathic Pain

-    Alzheimer's Disease (AD)

-   Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS/Lou Gehrig's Disease)

-    Blood Sepsis and Viremia

 

We have a two-fold corporate focus:

 

One is to target Cancer, Alzheimer's disease, ALS, Blood Sepsis, Leukemia, and other life-threatening cancers, and to do this we intend to develop our proprietary Sequential-Dialysis Technique. The methodology involved in this technique is largely unexplored and has been described by scientists as the "wild west" of modern medicine. Consequently, our first entry into the therapeutics market for medications that work against cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, infectious diseases, Alzheimer's disease, strokes and traumatic brain injury carries significant obstacles before reaching the opportunities of a $700 billion industry.

 

 
3
 

  

The other is the development of our proprietary drug candidate Feldetrex™, a potential treatment for Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathic Pain and Traumatic Brain Injury. The formulation used in the current Feldetrex™ will be individually tailored to the various illnesses we intend to target, with each formulation being given a unique proprietary brand name. The annual market size of MS treatment is $500 million and the annual market size for all proposed Feldetrex™ market segments is $16 billion.

 

To overcome the significant obstacles inherent to the development of our Sequential-Dialysis Technique and Feldetrex™ candidate drug, we are seeking to partner with prestigious institutions and pharmaceutical companies with the substantial infrastructure and resource capacity to perform experimentation and to engage in product development in an inexpensive and efficient manner.

  

SEQUENTIAL-DIALYSIS TECHNIQUE

 

Our proprietary Sequential-Dialysis Technique is a methodology for the removal of those molecules which are harmful and responsible for causing diseases. A significant disappointment in the practice of modern medicine is that the capabilities do exist to eliminate the presence of most illnesses, including life-threatening diseases such as AIDS and cancer, but with a caveat that the process of treatment comes with catastrophic side effects that can and often do kill the patient.

 

Our development is that the innovative Sequential-Dialysis Methodology is done extracorporeally (outside the body). This is a truly unique and innovative method for alleviating disease.

 

We believe that this methodology can be used for the prevention of cancer metastasis, for directly attacking the causation of intractable seizures, for preventing the death of anterior motor neurons in ALS, for preventing the cause of the neuropathological changes in Alzheimer's disease and Traumatic Brain Injury and for eradicating the causations of infectious diseases, and our intention is that the effectiveness of this technique will be demonstrated and supported in future clinical studies.

 

Through our Sequential-Dialysis Technique, we ultimately hope to provide a cure for cancer if not only to dramatically extend the lives of suffering patients. Our initial focus is on lab and animal tests. Clinical trials, as required, will be undertaken subsequently.

CANCER

 

Description of Illness

 

Cancer is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display 1) uncontrolled growth beyond the normal limits of cell reproduction, 2) invasion and destruction of adjacent tissues, and sometimes 3) metastasis or spread to other locations in the body via lymph or blood. These three properties of malignant cancers differentiate them from benign tumors which are self-limited and do not invade or metastasize. Most cancers form a tumor, but some, like leukemia, do not.1

 

Cancer may affect people at all ages but the risk for most varieties of cancer increases with age. In the United States, cancer accounts for nearly 1 in 4 deaths. According to the American Cancer Society about 577,190 Americans will die of Cancer this year, making the death toll a staggering 1,500 people per day.2 Globally and on average, 7.5 million people die of Cancer every year. There are about 12.7 million people living with cancer in the United States.3

 

Nearly all cancers are caused by abnormalities in the genetic material of the transformed cells. These abnormalities may be due to the effect of carcinogens, such as tobacco smoke, radiation, chemicals, or infectious agents. Other cancer-promoting genetic abnormalities may be randomly acquired through errors in DNA replication, or are inherited, and thus are present in all cells from birth. The heritability of cancers is usually affected by complex interactions between carcinogens and the host's genome. New aspects of the genetics of cancer pathogenesis, such as DNA methylation and microRNAs are increasingly recognized as important.

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

Cancer can be treated today by surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, monoclonal antibody therapy, or other methods. The choice of therapy depends upon the location and grade of the tumor and the stage of the disease, as well as the general state of the patient. A number of experimental cancer treatments are also under development. Complete removal of the cancer without damage to the rest of the body is the goal of treatment. Sometimes this can be accomplished by surgery, but the propensity of cancers to invade adjacent tissue or to spread to distant sites by microscopic metastasis often limits its effectiveness. The effectiveness of chemotherapy is often limited by toxicity to other tissues in the body. Radiation damages normal tissue.4

 

Potential for Sequential Dialysis Technique

 

We intend to develop a methodology for treating cancer which is completely different from the standard treatments of chemotherapy and radiation therapy that are now being utilized. Due to the fact that all presently known treatments directly inject chemotherapeutic agents into the body of a patient and/or directly irradiate the patient, there is a very high level of adverse side effects, such as kidney failure, encephalopathy, neuropathy, heart toxicity, and other severe morbidities.

 

We intend to develop our intellectual property applications for utilizing a proprietary methodology in which the cancer patient's blood or other bodily fluid is utilized to remove metastatic cancer cells or other disease causing antigens. This is accomplished by sequentially dialyzing the patient's blood or other bodily fluid extracorporeally. The method will utilize designer antibodies to physically remove the pathophysiologic basis of the disease. For example, in sepsis there will be the physical attachment and removal of bacteria. In cancer treatment, there will be the physical attachment and then physical removal of metastasizing cancer cells. There will also be the physical attachment, and removal of those proteins which allow cancer to metastasize successfully and then thrive-such as angiogenic proteins. To date there has been no specific clinical evidence to support a conclusion that this treatment is effective for premetastatic or metastatic cancers. We hope to demonstrate this in future lab and animal experiments. Through this process, the cancer can be targeted through a number of innovative techniques being developed by the Company.

 

 

This extracorporeal sequential dialysis methodology for cancer treatment has an enormous potentiality for decreasing the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatment in cancer patients. Our methodology may also increase the efficacy of cancer treatment by allowing for much higher dosages of anti-neoplastic agents to be used through this extracorporeal methodology. Due to the fact that this methodology completely avoids exposure of the patient's body to these anti-cancer agents, dosages that cannot be normally tolerated can now be utilized in fighting the cancer.

ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

 

Description of Illness

 

Alzheimer's disease is a dementing illness, which induces a progressive impairment of intellectual functioning, including a loss of short term memory. There is also a progressive impairment in executive functioning with occasional psychiatric manifestations such as depression and delirium. Delirium is characterized by an acute confusion. Oftentimes patients have language impairment and apraxia—an inability to perform previously learned tasks. Patients also often times show agnosia, an inability to recognize objects, and patients have a loss of visual-spatial abilities, for example oftentimes becoming lost in familiar surroundings. Occasionally hallucinations occur in severe forms of Alzheimer's disease.

 

Alzheimer's disease comes from neuropathic changes in the brain which includes the accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques in the cortex of the brain.5 Neurofibrillary tangles are composed of Tau proteins, which are deposited within the neurons of the brain. Thus, Tau proteins are the causation of Alzheimer's disease and other Tauopathies such as Pick's Disease, Tuberous Sclerosis and certain forms of Parkinson's disease.

 

A report by the Alzheimer's Association examining the current trajectory of Alzheimer's disease shows that the number of Americans age 65 and older who have Alzheimer's disease will increase from 5.1 million in 2010 to 13.5 million by mid-century. The report entitled "Changing the Trajectory of Alzheimer's Disease: A National Imperative" shows that "in the absence of disease-modifying treatments, the cumulative cost of care for people with Alzheimer's from 2010 to 2050 will exceed $20 trillion, in today's dollars. Total costs of care for individuals with Alzheimer's disease by all payers will soar from $172 billion in 2010 to more than $1 trillion in 2050." During this time, the Medicare costs of Alzheimer's disease will soar 600% to $627 billion and the Medicaid costs of Alzheimer's disease will soar 400% to $178 billion.6

 

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

Presently, there is no cure for Alzheimer's disease. Treatments exist but only target the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease without targeting the underlying progression of the disease. Consequently the projected future life span of an individual diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease is 5 to 7 years.7

 

Potential for Sequential-Dialysis Technique

 

We believe that our proprietary Sequential-Dialysis Technique can be used to prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease. This would be done by removing the proteins responsible for the pathologic changes in the brain, namely the protein Tau; thus, preventing the cause of the neuropathic changes that cause Alzheimer's disease. The Tau protein will be removed from the cerebral spinal fluid in which it resides utilizing a designer antibody (an antibody genetically engineered for a specific purpose) which will allow for the efficacious removal of the protein. We hope to demonstrate this in future lab and animal experiments. We believe that our Sequential-Dialysis Technique can also be used in this fashion to treat Traumatic Brain Injury.

ALS

 

Description of Illness

 

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. While the cause of ALS is uncertain, the process of ALS is known to occur as motor neurons in affected patients progressively degenerate until death. As motor neurons degenerate, they can no longer send impulses to muscle fibers that normally result in muscle movement. Eventually, the motor neurons die and the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movements is lost. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease become totally paralyzed.8

 

ALS has been frequently referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease, after the famous New York Yankees baseball player diagnosed with the disease in 1939.

 

Annually, about 5,600 people are diagnosed with ALS in the United States. The projected future life span of a diagnosed patient is two to five years. It is projected that of the current US population, 300,000 people will die of ALS before a cure is found.

 

The financial cost to families of persons with ALS is exceedingly high. In the advanced stages, care can cost up to $200,000 a year. Entire savings of relatives of patients are quickly depleted because of the extraordinary cost involved in the care of ALS patients.9

 

 

 

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

There is currently no cure or treatment that halts or reverses ALS. However, there is one FDA approved drug, Riluzole, which modestly slows the progression of ALS.

 

Potential for Sequential-Dialysis Technique

 

Numerous medical studies have proven that the causation of ALS is an over excitation of the anterior motor neurons in the spinal cord. Our Sequential-Dialysis Technique method removes those excitatory neural transmitters that cause the death of those cells. The method will utilize designer antibodies to physically remove excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate from cerebrospinal fluid. We hope to demonstrate this methodology in future lab and animal experiments. Thus, we hope to prevent the development of ALS; thereby, giving hope to patients of a currently unconquerable disease.

BLOOD SEPSIS AND VIREMIA

 

Description of Illness

 

Blood Sepsis, also known as Blood Poisoning, is an infection of the blood stream. Sepsis is caused when toxin releasing bacteria, such as Staphylococcus, enter the blood. Blood Sepsis is a particularly devastating disease due to the domino-effect of organ shutdown which causes multiple organ failure. Blood Sepsis causes a whole body inflammatory state called Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS).

 

Blood Sepsis first results in the shutdown of kidneys; thus patients require standard dialysis immediately to prevent death. As the disease progresses, vital signs collapse—the foremost of these being blood pressure. Subsequently, symptoms of Sepsis include elevated temperature, elevated heart rate, respiratory collapse, further organ failures, altered mental status and cardiac failure.

 

Septicemia is a major cause of death in the United States and puts people in the intensive care unit at a very high rate. Only about 1-2% of all hospitalizations in the United States are attributed to Septicemia, though Septicemia accounts for as much as 25% of bed-utilization in intensive-care units.

 

 

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

The traditional therapy of Blood Sepsis (bacteremia) relies on intravenous treatment using multiple antibiotics. However, in intensive care units, even with today's treatment, approximately 35% of patients with severe sepsis and 60% of patients with septic shock die within 30 days.

 

Septicemia is of particular concern because of the exceedingly high cost of treatment for Septicemia patients. A typical stay in the intensive care unit costs $10,000 per day with testing. Consequently, the treatment of Blood Sepsis is one of the most costly expenditures for hospitals in America.

 

Potential for Sequential-Dialysis Technique

 

We hope to conquer Blood Sepsis and Viremia (a disease having symptoms similar to Sepsis but caused by virus) by using our proprietary Sequential-Dialysis Technique. If proven successful, this technique would dialyze the toxin producing bacteria out of the blood by using antibodies; thus saving countless lives while also providing significant cost savings to hospitals around the country. The method will utilize designer antibodies to physically remove the toxin producing bacteria out of the blood. The designer antibodies will attach to the toxin producing bacteria or virus, and then the antibody-antigen compound will be efficaciously dialyzed out of the blood extracorporeally. We hope to demonstrate this methodology in future lab and animal experiments.

FELDETREX™

 

Although a combination of generic medications, we have a U.S. Patent (No. 8,865,733) on our Feldetrex™ candidate drug. In this way, Feldetrex™ is similar to ViagraÒ, which was a proprietary cardiac drug prior to its current use and ownership by Pfizer. Consequently, we have one pending patent application for our Feldetrex™ candidate drug—intending to increase our Feldetrex™ related patent applications to three in the near future.

 

Feldetrex™ may serve as an additional medication utilized by physicians for the treatment of Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, or Traumatic Brain Injury, and is designed to decrease symptomatology in those conditions. Feldetrex™ will not compete against our proprietary Sequential-Dialysis Technique in the market to treat Traumatic Brain Injury, but rather the two will work conjunctively.

 

Feldetrex™ utilizes a low dosage of Naltrexone which has been shown in multiple medical articles, in the medical literature, to increase endogenous enkephalins10 (endogenous enkephalins are pain-relieving pentapeptides produced in the body, located in the pituitary gland, brain, and GI tract. Axon terminals that release enkephalins are concentrated in the posterior horn of the gray matter of the spinal cord, in the central part of the thalamus, and in the amygdala of the limbic system of the cerebrum. Endogenous Enkephalins function as neurotransmitters that inhibit neurotransmitters in the pathway for pain perception, thereby reducing the emotional as well as the physical impact of pain). We have not independently conducted medical or laboratory tests to show the mechanism of action of this medication. While Naltrexone in high dosages acts as an opioid antagonist, it inhibits opiate receptors. Naltrexone in low dosages causes a compensatory upregulation (increase in the number of receptors) of native endorphins and enkephalins, which last beyond the effects of the Naltrexone itself. We believe that this means, paradoxically, that a daily dose of low dose Naltrexone can be used to chronically increase endorphin and enkephalin levels. We believe that by utilizing a low dosage, Naltrexone has a unique ability to increase enkephalins and other neurotransmitters in the brainstem of patients.

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

 

Description of Illness

 

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a devastating inflammatory neurologic disease in which white matter, known as myelin, is damaged—causing episodic or neurological symptoms. The destruction of myelin inhibits communications between the nerves in the brain.

 

Symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis include extreme fatigue, numbness, weakness, difficulty with eyesight, spasticity, speech problems, and problems with coordination. Multiple Sclerosis has its greatest incidence in young adults and patients are usually diagnosed at less than 55 years of age at the onset of the illness.

 

The cause of Multiple Sclerosis is unknown, although the disease is believed to be an autoimmune problem triggered by a virus—meaning that the patient's immune cells attack and destroy the patient's myelin. In the United States, there are approximately 400,000 patients diagnosed with MS and approximately 200 new patients are diagnosed every week.11 Globally, Multiple Sclerosis is believed to effect 2.1 million people, mostly of European origin.

 

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

'ABC' drugs Avonex, Beta-Seron, Copaxone are used to treat Multiple Sclerosis but have been shown to barely beat out placebos in efficacy and are not approved in England for government subsidy. The drug Tysavri was deemed dangerous and was taken off the market for over a year.

 

Another treatment of MS is high dose steroids; though, this treatment simply decreases symptoms without curing MS.

 

Potential for Feldetrex™

 

Our proprietary Feldetrex™ candidate drug will not compete with typical treatment methods for Multiple Sclerosis, but rather, is simply an add-on drug to increase the effectiveness of treatment.

FIBROMYALGIA

 

Description of Illness

 

Fibromyalgia is a common illness affecting approximately 2% of the general population, most common amongst women 20 to 50 years of age. Approximately five million Americans suffer from the debilitating illness. The cause of Fibromyalgia is officially unknown and diagnosis of Fibromyalgia is a 'diagnosis of exclusion'—meaning that Fibromyalgia is diagnosed as an illness after Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lupus have been ruled out with a blood test.

 

Patients with Fibromyalgia suffer from debilitating fatigue, numbness, headaches, and chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain with multiple tender points. Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition lasting 6 months to many years. Patients commonly complain of chronic aching, pain, stiffness, sleep difficulty, headaches, and irritable bowel syndrome. Consequently, approximately 25% of patients with Fibromyalgia are work disabled. The direct and indirect costs of Fibromyalgia are, on average, $5,945 per patient.12

 

 

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

Lyrica (Pregabalin) is the only FDA approved medication for the treatment of Fibromyalgia. However, Lyrica oftentimes has side effects of dizziness, drowsiness and dry mouth. Rarely, Lyrica can cause suicidal ideation and severe agitation.

 

Potential for Feldetrex™

 

Our Feldetrex™ candidate drug will not compete with currently existing treatments of Fibromyalgia, but, rather, would be an add-on-drug to increase the effectiveness of treatment.

TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY

 

Description of Illness

 

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) occurs when an external force traumatically injures the brain. TBI is a major cause of death and disability worldwide, especially in children and young adults. Causes of TBI include falls, vehicle accidents, and violence. Three separate processes of Traumatic Brain Injury work to injure the brain: 1) bruising (bleeding), 2) tearing, and 3) swelling. Brain trauma can be caused by a direct impact or by acceleration alone. In addition to the damage caused at the moment of injury, brain trauma causes 'secondary injury', a variety of events that take place in the minutes and days following the injury. These processes, which include alterations in the cerebral blood flow and the pressure within the skull contribute substantially to the damage from the initial injury.

 

 

Each year, an estimated two million TBI-related deaths, hospitalizations, and emergency department visits occur in the United States. Of these patients, 56,000 die and 300,000 are hospitalized. 1.7 million patients are treated and released from an emergency department.13

 

Conventional Method of Treatment

 

The present treatment methodology for Traumatic Brain Injury is centered on the treatment of symptoms. There are currently no treatments that target the underlying pathology of Traumatic Brain Injury.

 

Currently used medications used to treat Traumatic Brain Injury, such as narcotics and antidepressants, have many side effects including addiction, arrhythmia, liver and kidney damage, abdominal problems, nausea, and vomiting.

 

Potential for Feldetrex™

 

Our proprietary Feldetrex™ candidate drug has a mechanism of action via a manipulation of central nervous system neurotransmitters, which involves the cerebral cortex, limbic system, and spinothalamic tracts. Feldetrex™ utilizes a low dosage of Naltrexone which has been shown in multiple medical articles, in the medical literature, to increase endogenous enkephalins. We have not independently conducted medical or laboratory tests to show the mechanism of action of this medication.

Development Plans

 

Central Nervous System Disorders

 

Feldetrex™

 

Feldetrex™, our candidate drug, is a treatment for decreasing the morbidity of Multiple Sclerosis patients. Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic, progressive illness that affects the nerves in the brain, spinal cord, and other parts of the central nervous system. Multiple Sclerosis affects over 400,000 people in the United States and may affect 2.5 million people worldwide. The licensor under our License Agreements has two pending provisional patent applications with variations featuring oral and/or possibly transdermal medication applications. We intend to compare the efficacy of Feldetrex™ to the standard injectable medications currently utilized to treat Multiple Sclerosis, such as Betaseron (Interferon beta-1b), Avonex (Interferon beta-1a), and Copaxone (Glatiramer acetate). Additionally, we plan on utilizing Feldetrex™ in peer reviewed medical studies at major medical centers to ascertain the efficacy of Feldetrex™ in symbiotically increasing the efficacy of the standard FDA approved Multiple Sclerosis injection drugs.

 

Feldetrex™ Development Plans

 

We don't have the financial ability to conduct the necessary clinical trials for FDA approval of our Feldetrex™ product candidate. We intend to enter into agreements with larger pharmaceutical companies as collaboration partners, in part to help cover the cost of such processes.

 

At the conclusion of the studies involving Feldetrex™, we plan to publish the results in established medical journals and subsequently contact the large pharmaceutical firms for a possible sale or license of the rights to conduct clinical trials, manufacture, and distribute Feldetrex™.

 

Infectious Diseases

 

The licensor under our License Agreements has filed a provisional patent application for the dialyzation of blood from a patient who is dying from septicemia. Septicemia is a rapidly fatal condition in which bacteria have infected the bloodstream of a patient. These patients subsequently suffer from rapid renal failure, encephalopathy, and heart failure unless the septicemia is quickly reversed. Each year approximately 200,000 Americans die from septicemia.14 The traditional treatment of septicemia has been intravenous antibiotics, which have limited efficacy and are highly toxic.

 

Our method of treatment is to use an extracorporeal methodology of blood dialysis in which the bacteria-infected blood is sterilized through a proprietary methodology of dialyzation in which the blood is placed into contact with antibiotics within the dialysis lumen for a specified period, which subsequently kills the bacterial pathogen with a sequential removal of the antibiotic in order to negate any toxicity to the treated patient. We anticipate that this method could be utilized in place of the standard methodology or could be utilized as an adjunctive treatment for intensive care unit patients.

Development Plans

 

Initial concept experimentations began in 2012. After proof of concept experimentations, we intend to implement a clinical hospital/doctor test plan for patients using the same contacts developed in the studies described above for Feldetrex™. We anticipate that these studies will be initiated after successful laboratory testing no earlier than 2014. Actual clinical trials with patients, conducted in conjunction with our collaboration partners, may continue for many years. We plan to contact the large medical firms, such as Johnson and Johnson, Pfizer, and Eli Lilly, to attempt to sell the rights to use our technology and conduct the anticipated clinical trials, beginning as early as mid-to-late 2014.

 

Oncology

 

The licensor under our License Agreements is currently developing applications for utilizing a proprietary methodology in which the cancer patient's blood is utilized to remove metastatic cancer cells. This is accomplished by dialyzing the patient's blood extracorporeally, and, through our proprietary methodology, placing the cancer cells in contact with anti-neoplastic agents within the lumen of the dialysis apparatus. We believe this extracorporeal methodology for cancer treatment has an enormous potentiality for decreasing the side effects of chemotherapy and irradiation treatment in cancer patients. Our methodology may also increase the efficacy of cancer treatment by allowing for much higher dosages of anti-neoplastic agents to be used through this extracorporeal methodology. Because this method completely avoids exposure of the patient's corpus to these anti-cancer agents, we believe dosages that cannot be normally tolerated can now be utilized in fighting the cancer.

 

Development Plans

 

We initiated laboratory tests to prove our cancer-fighting technology in late 2012. In 2013, we completed two breast oncology studies to test the effectiveness of a treatment proposed by Premier Biomedical, Inc. on small mice populations. Premier Biomedical, Inc. believes that the results of these studies will be published in a scientific journal in January 2014, although the results will ultimately be published at the discretion of the University of Texas at El Paso. We plan to undertake additional studies at a university/hospital during 2014. We estimate the cost for each of these studies to be between $300,000 and $500,000, including actual testing with cancer patients, which we anticipate funding from additional capital raises. At the anticipated successful conclusion of these studies, we plan to contact the large pharmaceutical/medical devices firms, such as Johnson & Johnson, Boston Scientific, Medtronics, Pfizer, and E. I. Lilly, to attempt to negotiate a partnership and/or sale of the technology.

 

Research and Development

 

Innovation by our research and development operations is very important to our success. Our goal is to discover, develop and bring to market innovative products and treatments that address major unmet medical needs, including initially, Multiple Sclerosis, Septicemia, and Cancer. We expect this goal to be supported by substantial research and development investments.

 

We plan on conducting research internally and may also through contracts with third parties, through collaborations with universities and biotechnology companies and in cooperation with pharmaceutical firms. We may also seek out promising compounds and innovative technologies developed by third parties to incorporate into our discovery or development methods and procedures or projects, as well as our future product lines, through acquisition, licensing or other arrangements.

 

 
15
 

 

In addition to discovering and developing new products, methods and procedures of treatment and treatments, we expect our research operations to add value to our existing products and methods and procedures of treatment in development by improving their effectiveness and by discovering new uses for them.

 

Marketing

 

Currently, we manage our marketing responsibilities internally. We intend to seek a partnership with and/or sale of our product candidates/technologies to large pharmaceutical and/or medical devices firms. These firms have the ability to effectively promote our product candidates to healthcare providers and patients. Through their marketing organizations, they can explain the approved uses, benefits and risks of our product candidates to healthcare providers, such as doctors, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, pharmacists, hospitals, Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), employers and government agencies. They also market directly to consumers in the U.S. through direct-to-consumer advertising that communicates the approved uses, benefits, and risks of our product candidates while continuing to motivate people to have meaningful conversations with their doctors. In addition, they sponsor general advertising to educate the public on disease awareness, important public health issues, and patient assistance programs.

 

The large pharmaceutical/medical devices firms principally sell their products to wholesalers, but they also sell directly to retailers, hospitals, clinics, government agencies and pharmacies and also work with MCOs, PBMs, employers and other appropriate healthcare providers to assist them with disease management, patient education and other tools that help their medical treatment routines.

 

Patents and Intellectual Property Rights

 

We have licensed three U.S. patents: Sequential Extracorporeal Treatment of Bodily Fluids, U.S. Patent No. 9,216,386 and Utilization of Stents for the Treatment of Blood Borne Carcinomas, U.S. Patent No. 8,758,287 (both from Marv Enterprises, LLC), and Medication and Treatment for Disease, U.S. Patent No. 8,865,733 (from Altman Enterprises, LLC), in the areas of cancer, sepsis, and multiple sclerosis. We expect these patents to cover the medical treatments discussed above for Multiple Sclerosis, Blood Sepsis, and Cancer and be effective until 2029. Marv and Altman have licensed these technologies to us pursuant to the terms of the License Agreements. Because our license agreements cover the patents and "all applications of the United States and foreign countries that claim priority to the above PCT applications, including any non-provisionals, continuations, continuations-in-part, divisions, reissues, re-examinations or extensions thereof," we anticipate that other technologies that derive from these patents will also belong to us and are covered by the license agreements.

 

Patents extend for twenty years from the date of patent filing. The actual protection afforded by a patent, which can vary from country to country, depends upon the type of patent, the scope of its coverage and the availability of legal remedies in the country.

 

 
16
 

 

Dr. Felder is the owner of the Feldetrex mark, and has also licensed this to us pursuant to the terms of the License Agreements.

 

We expect our patent and related rights to be of material importance to our business.

 

Competition

 

Our business is conducted in an intensely competitive and often highly regulated market. Our treatments face competition in the form of branded drugs, generic drugs and the currently practiced treatments for Multiple Sclerosis, Blood Sepsis, and Cancer. The principal forms of competition include efficacy, safety, ease of use, and cost effectiveness. Where possible, companies compete on the basis of the unique features of their products, such as greater efficacy, better patient ease of use or fewer side effects. A lower overall cost of therapy is also an important factor. Products that demonstrate fewer therapeutic advantages must compete for inclusion based primarily on price. Though the means of competition vary among product categories, demonstrating the value of our medications and procedures will be a critical factor for our success.

 

Our competitors include large worldwide research-based drug companies, smaller research companies with more limited therapeutic focus, and generic drug manufacturers. We compete with other companies that manufacture and sell products that treat similar diseases as our major medications and procedures.

 

Environment

 

Our business may be subject to a variety of federal, state and local environmental protection measures. We intend to comply in all material respects with applicable environmental laws and regulations.

 

Regulation

 

We expect our business to be subject to varying degrees of governmental regulation in the United States and any other countries in which our operations are conducted. In the United States, regulation by various federal and state agencies has long been focused primarily on product safety, efficacy, manufacturing, advertising, labeling and safety reporting. The exercise of broad regulatory powers by the FDA continues to result in increases in the amounts of testing and documentation required for FDA clearance of new drugs and devices and a corresponding increase in the expense of product introduction. Likewise, the approval process with the FDA is estimated to take approximately seven (7) years from the time it is started. Similar trends are also evident in major markets outside of the United States.

 

 
17
 

 

Clinical trials are a set of procedures in medical research conducted to allow safety (or more specifically, information about adverse drug reactions and adverse effects of other treatments) and efficacy data to be collected for health interventions (e.g., drugs, diagnostics, devices, therapy protocols). These trials can take place only after satisfactory information has been gathered on the quality of the non-clinical safety, and Health Authority/Ethics Committee approval is granted in the country where the trial is taking place.

 

Depending on the type of product and the stage of its development, investigators enroll healthy volunteers and/or patients into small pilot studies initially, followed by larger scale studies in patients that often compare the new product with the currently prescribed treatment. As positive safety and efficacy data are gathered, the number of patients is typically increased. Clinical trials can vary in size from a single center in one country to multicenter trials in multiple countries.

 

Due to the sizable cost a full series of clinical trials may incur, the burden of paying for all the necessary people and services is usually borne by the sponsor who may be a governmental organization, a pharmaceutical, or biotechnology company. Since the diversity of roles may exceed resources of the sponsor, often a clinical trial is managed by an outsourced partner such as a contract research organization or a clinical trials unit in the academic sector.

 

The regulatory agencies under whose purview we intend to operate have administrative powers that may subject us to such actions as product withdrawals, recalls, seizure of products and other civil and criminal sanctions.

 

Because we intend to seek a partnership with and/or sale of our product candidates/technologies to large pharmaceutical and/or medical devices firms, we anticipate that a larger pharmaceutical company will undertake to navigate the regulatory pathway, including conducting clinical trials, for a product such as Feldetrex™.

 

Employees

 

As of the date hereof, we do not have any employees other than our two officers and four additional directors that work on a part-time basis. Our officers and directors will continue to work for us for the foreseeable future. We anticipate hiring appropriate personnel on an as-needed basis, and utilizing the services of independent contractors as needed.

ITEM 1A. – RISK FACTORS.

 

As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide a statement of risk factors. Nonetheless, we are voluntarily providing risk factors herein.

 

Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following information, together with the other information contained in this Annual Report, before you decide to buy our common stock. If one or more of the following events actually occurs, our business will suffer, and as a result our financial condition or results of operations will be adversely affected. In this case, the market price, if any, of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock.

 

We are developing medical treatments for Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, fibromyalgia, traumatic brain injury, blood sepsis and virema, and cancer. We face risks in developing our product candidates and services and eventually bringing them to market. We also face risks that our business model may become obsolete. The following risks are material risks that we face. If any of these risks occur, our business, our ability to achieve revenues, our operating results and our financial condition could be seriously harmed.

 

Risk Factors Related to the Business of the Company

 

We have a limited operating history and our financial results are uncertain.

 

We have a limited history and face many of the risks inherent to a new business. As a result of our limited operating history, it is difficult to accurately forecast our potential revenue. We were incorporated in Nevada in 2010. Our revenue and income potential is unproven and our business model is still emerging. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will provide a return on investment in the future. An investor in our common stock must consider the challenges, risks and uncertainties frequently encountered in the establishment of new technologies, products and processes in emerging markets and evolving industries. These challenges include our ability to:

 

 

·

execute our business model;

 

 

 

 

·

create brand recognition;

 

 

 

 

·

manage growth in our operations;

 

 

 

 

·

create a customer base in a cost-effective manner;

 

 

 

 

·

retain customers;

 

 

 

 

·

access additional capital when required; and

 

 

 

 

·

attract and retain key personnel.

 

There can be no assurance that our business model will be successful or that it will successfully address these and other challenges, risks and uncertainties.

 

We will need additional funding in the future, and if we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our product candidate development programs, commercial efforts, or sales efforts.

 

Developing products and methods and procedures of treatment and marketing developed products is costly. We will need to raise substantial additional capital in the future in order to execute our business plan and help us and our collaboration partners fund the development and commercialization of our product candidates.

 

 
19
 

 

In 2015, we raised funds primarily through convertible debt financing, and in 2014, we raised funds through a public equity offering. We may need to finance future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or strategic collaboration and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience additional dilution, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and may result in high interest expense. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our product candidates, processes and technologies or our development projects or to grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available from the foregoing sources, we may consider additional strategic financing options, including sales of assets, or we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our research or development programs or curtail some of our commercialization efforts of our operations. We may seek to access the public or private equity markets whenever conditions are favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital.

 

We do not own our technologies, they are owned by, and licensed from, two entities that are under the control of the Chairman of our Board of Directors.

 

We do not currently own the technologies necessary to conduct our operations. The patents necessary to pursue our intended business plan are under the control of our Chairman of the Board of Directors. As consideration for the two licenses, we agreed to (i) pay a royalty of five percent (5%) of any sales of products using the technology, with no minimum royalty and (ii) reimburse the licensor for any costs incurred in pursuing its proprietary rights in the licensed technology and pay any costs incurred for maintaining or obtaining the licensors' proprietary rights in the licensed technology in the U.S. and in extending the intellectual property to other countries around the world. The licensor has the sole discretion to select other countries into which exclusive rights in the licensed technology may be pursued, and if we decline to pay those expenses, then the licensor may pay said expenses and our licensed rights in those countries will revert to the licensor. The license agreements contain provisions that require us to indemnify the licensor for any claims, including costs of litigation, brought against them related to the licenses, and require us to maintain insurance that may be burdensome. In the event of a breach of our obligations under the license agreements, the licensors are entitled to various damages and remedies, up to and including termination of said license agreements. The licensors are entities under the control of Dr. Mitchell S. Felder, the Chairman of our Board of Directors. While Dr. Felder is one of our Company's founders and the Chairman of our Board of Directors, there can be no assurance that he will extend the offer to license these technologies to us in the future as currently contemplated.

 

We do not intend to take our FeldetrexÒ product candidate past the development stage, but instead intend to enter into collaboration agreements with collaboration partners. If we are unable to enter into an agreement with collaboration partners, our FeldetrexÒ product candidate cannot be marketed, and it will not generate revenue for us.

 

We do not intend to conduct clinical trials on our FeldetrexÒ product candidate. We instead intend to enter into one or more collaboration agreements with third parties to do so. However, we have not entered into any such agreements, or discussions for any such agreements, and we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in doing so. If we do not find a collaboration partner, the FeldetrexÒ product candidate cannot be marketed, and it will not generate any revenue for us.

 

 
20
 

 

The failure to generate revenue from our FeldetrexÒ product candidate will have a materially adverse effect on our overall revenues, profitability, and we may not be able to continue operations.

 

If an individual used any of our product candidates prior to their approval by the FDA or other regulatory authority, we face risks of unforeseen medical problems, and up to a complete ban on the sale of our product candidates.

 

The efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products is established through a process of clinical testing under Federal Drug Administration ("FDA") oversight. No individual is authorized or should use any of our products outside of an established process of clinical testing and FDA approval and authorization. If an individual were to use one of our product candidates in such a manner, we cannot predict the potential medical harm to that individual. If such an event were to occur, the FDA or similar regulatory agency might impose a complete ban on the sale or use of our candidate products.

 

The FDA might not approve our product candidates for marketing and sale.

 

We intend to enter into agreements with larger pharmaceutical companies as collaboration partners, in part to help cover the cost of seeking regulatory approvals. We believe that FDA approval of some of our product candidates will need to undergo a full investigational new drug (IND) application with the FDA, including clinical trials. There can be no assurance that the FDA will approve our IND application or any other applications. Failure to obtain the necessary FDA approval will have a material negative affect on our operations. While we intend to license our FeldetrexÒ product to a larger pharmaceutical company, they in turn, may not be able to obtain the necessary approval to market and sale the product.

 

We may fail to deliver commercially successful new product candidates, methods and procedures of treatment, and treatments.

 

Our technology is at an early stage of research and development. As of the date hereof, we have partnered with the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), and protocol for animal testing procedures is being developed in conjunction with UTEP at this time. Subsequent clinical trials on human patients will be coordinated with our development partners in the near future. We have also entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (the "CRADA") with the Clinical Investigation Regulatory Office U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command ("CIRO") for performing medical research, development, testing and evaluation. Pursuant to the CRADA, we will collaborate with the U.S. Army Medical Research Material Command at the William Beaumont Army Medical Center ("WBAMC") on the "Clearance of Specific Immunomodulators from Cerebrospinal Fluid via Selective Dialysis," and more specifically, targeting the prevention of suicidal ideation and clinical depression, and assisting in the creation of antibodies in order to obtain a decrease in the neuropathologic findings in traumatic brain injuries.

 

 
21
 

 

The development of commercially viable new products and methods and procedures of treatment, as well as the development of additional uses for existing products and methods and procedures of treatment, is critical to our ability to generate sales and/or sell the rights to manufacture and distribute our product and process candidates to another firm. Developing new products and methods and procedures of treatment is a costly, lengthy and uncertain process. A new product or process candidate can fail at any stage of the development or commercialization, and one or more late-stage product or process candidates could fail to receive regulatory approval.

 

New product and process candidates may appear promising in development, but after significant investment, fail to reach the market or have only limited commercial success. This, for example, could be as a result of efficacy or safety concerns, inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals, difficulty or excessive costs to manufacture, erosion of patent term as a result of a lengthy development period, infringement of third-party patents or other intellectual property rights of others or inability to differentiate the product or process adequately from those with which it competes.

 

The commercialization of product and process candidates under development may not be profitable.

 

In order for the commercialization of our product candidates to be profitable, our product and process candidates must be cost-effective and economical to manufacture on a commercial scale. Furthermore, if our product candidates and methods and procedures of treatment do not achieve market acceptance, we may not be profitable. Subject to regulatory approval, we expect to incur significant development, sales and marketing expenses in connection with the commercialization of our new product and process candidates. Even if we receive additional financing, we may not be able to complete planned development and marketing of any or all of our product or process candidates. Our future profitability may depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

 

 

·

the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing and other arrangements that we may establish;

 

 

 

 

·

the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights;

 

 

 

 

·

the costs of establishing manufacturing and production, sales, marketing and distribution capabilities; and

 

 

 

 

·

the effect of competing technological and market developments.

 

Even if our collaboration partners receive regulatory approval for our product and process candidates, we may not earn significant revenues from such product or process candidates. With respect to the product and methods and procedures of treatment candidates in our development pipeline that are being developed by or in close conjunction with third parties, our ability to generate revenues from such product and process candidates will depend in large part on the efforts of such third parties. To the extent that our collaboration partners are not successful in commercializing our product or process candidates, our revenues will suffer, we will incur significant additional losses and the price of our common stock will be negatively affected.

 

 
22
 

 

We may engage in strategic transactions that fail to enhance stockholder value.

 

From time to time, we may consider possible strategic transactions, including the potential acquisitions or licensing of products or technologies or acquisition of companies, and other alternatives with the goal of maximizing stockholder value. We may never complete a strategic transaction, and in the event that we do complete a strategic transaction, implementation of such transactions may impair stockholder value or otherwise adversely affect our business. Any such transaction may require us to incur non-recurring or other charges and may pose significant integration challenges and/or management and business disruptions, any of which could harm our results of operation and business prospects.

 

Our business is heavily regulated by governmental authorities, and failure to comply with such regulation or changes in such regulations could negatively impact our financial results.

 

We must comply with a broad range of regulatory controls on the testing, approval, manufacturing and marketing of our product candidates, procedures and other treatments, particularly in the United States and countries of the European Union, that affect not only the cost of product development but also the time required to reach the market and the uncertainty of successfully doing so. Health authorities have increased their focus on safety when assessing the benefit risk/balance of drugs in the context of not only initial product approval but also in the context of approval of additional indications and review of information regarding marketed products. Stricter regulatory controls also heighten the risk of changes in product profile or withdrawal by regulators on the basis of post-approval concerns over product safety, which could reduce revenues and can result in product recalls and product liability lawsuits. There is also greater regulatory scrutiny, especially in the United States, on advertising and promotion and in particular on direct-to-consumer advertising.

 

The regulatory process is uncertain, can take many years, and requires the expenditure of substantial resources. In particular, proposed human pharmaceutical therapeutic product requirements set by the FDA in the United States, and similar health authorities in other countries, require substantial time and resources to satisfy. We may never obtain regulatory approval for our product and process candidates.

 

We may not be able to gain or sustain market acceptance for our services and product candidates.

 

Failure to establish a brand and presence in the marketplace on a timely basis could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we will successfully complete our development and introduction of new products or product enhancements, or methods and procedures of treatment or that any such product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment will achieve acceptance in the marketplace. We may also fail to develop and deploy new products and product enhancements on a timely basis.

 

 
23
 

 

The market for products, methods and procedures of treatment and services in the pharmaceuticals industry is highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete successfully.

 

We intend to operate in highly competitive markets. We will likely face competition both from proprietary products of large international manufacturers and producers of generic pharmaceuticals. Most of the competitors in the industry have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than us, and may be able to respond more quickly than we can to new or changing opportunities and customer requirements. Also, many competitors have greater name recognition and more extensive customer bases that they can leverage to gain market share. Such competitors are able to undertake more extensive promotional activities, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and offer more attractive terms to purchasers than we can.

 

Significant product innovations, technical advances or the intensification of price competition by competitors could adversely affect our operating results. We cannot predict the timing or impact of competitive products or their potential impact on sales of our product candidates.

 

If any of our major product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment were to become subject to a problem such as unplanned loss of patent protection, unexpected side effects, regulatory proceedings, publicity affecting doctor or patient confidence or pressure from competitive products and methods and procedures of treatment, or if a new, more effective treatment should be introduced, the adverse impact on our revenues and operating results could be significant.

 

We are dependent on the services of key personnel and failure to attract qualified management could limit our growth and negatively impact our results of operations.

 

We are highly dependent on the principal members of our management and scientific staff and certain key consultants, including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of our Board of Directors. We will continue to depend on operations management personnel with pharmaceutical and scientific industry experience. At this time, we do not know of the availability of such experienced management personnel or how much it may cost to attract and retain such personnel. The loss of the services of any member of senior management or the inability to hire experienced operations management personnel could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

If physicians and patients do not accept our current or future product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment, we may be unable to generate significant additional revenue, if any.

 

The products and methods and procedures of treatment that we may develop or acquire in the future may fail to gain market acceptance among physicians, health care payors, patients and the medical community. Physicians may elect not to recommend these treatments for a variety of reasons, including:

 

 

·

timing of market introduction of competitive drugs;

 

 

 

 

·

lower demonstrated clinical safety and efficacy compared to other drugs or treatments;

 

 

 

 

·

lack of cost-effectiveness;

 

 

 

 

·

lack of availability of reimbursement from managed care plans and other third-party payors;

 

 

 

 

·

lack of convenience or ease of administration;

 

 

 

 

·

prevalence and severity of adverse side effects;

 

 

 

 

·

other potential advantages of alternative treatment methods; and

 

 

 

 

·

ineffective marketing and distribution support.

 

 
24
 

 

If our product candidates and processes fail to achieve market acceptance, we would not be able to generate significant revenue.

 

We are exposed to the risk of liability claims, for which we may not have adequate insurance.

 

Since we participate in the pharmaceutical industry, we may be subject to liability claims by employees, customers, end users and third parties. We do not currently have product liability insurance. We intend to have proper insurance in place; however, there can be no assurance that any liability insurance we purchase will be adequate to cover claims asserted against us or that we will be able to maintain such insurance in the future. We intend to adopt prudent risk management programs to reduce these risks and potential liabilities; however, we have not taken any steps to create these programs and have no estimate as to the cost or time required to do so and there can be no assurance that such programs, if and when adopted, will fully protect us. We may not be able to put risk management programs in place, or obtain insurance, if we are unable to retain the necessary expertise and/or are unsuccessful in raising necessary capital in the future. Adverse rulings in any legal matters, proceedings and other matters could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Pre-clinical and clinical trials are conducted during the development of potential products and other treatments to determine their safety and efficacy for use by humans. Notwithstanding these efforts, when our treatments are introduced into the marketplace, unanticipated side effects may become evident. Manufacturing, marketing, selling and testing our product candidates under development or to be acquired or licensed, entails a risk of product liability claims. We could be subject to product liability claims in the event that our product candidates, processes, or products under development fail to perform as intended. Even unsuccessful claims could result in the expenditure of funds in litigation and the diversion of management time and resources, and could damage our reputation and impair the marketability of our product candidates and processes. While we plan to maintain liability insurance for product liability claims, we may not be able to obtain or maintain such insurance at a commercially reasonable cost. If a successful claim were made against us, and we don't have insurance or the amount of insurance was inadequate to cover the costs of defending against or paying such a claim or the damages payable by us, we would experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Other companies may claim that we have infringed upon their intellectual property or proprietary rights.

 

We do not believe that our product candidates and methods and procedures violate third-party intellectual property rights; however, we have not had an independent party conduct a study of possible patent infringements. Nevertheless, we cannot guarantee that claims relating to violation of such rights will not be asserted by third parties. If any of our product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment are found to violate third-party intellectual property rights, we may be required to expend significant funds to re-engineer or cause to be re-engineered one or more of those product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment to avoid infringement, or seek to obtain licenses from third parties to continue offering our product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment without substantial re-engineering, and such efforts may not be successful.

 

 
25
 

 

In addition, future patents may be issued to third parties upon which our product candidates and methods and procedures of treatment may infringe. We may incur substantial costs in defending against claims under any such patents. Furthermore, parties making such claims may be able to obtain injunctive or other equitable relief, which effectively could block our ability to further develop or commercialize some or all of our products or methods and procedures of treatment in the United States or abroad, and could result in the award of substantial damages against us. In the event of a claim of infringement, we may be required to obtain one or more licenses from third parties. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such licenses at a reasonable cost, if at all. Defense of any lawsuit or failure to obtain any such license could be costly and have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Our success depends on our ability to protect our proprietary technology.

 

Our success depends, to a significant degree, upon the protection of our proprietary technology, and that of any licensors. Legal fees and other expenses necessary to obtain and maintain appropriate patent protection could be material. Insufficient funding may inhibit our ability to obtain and maintain such protection. Additionally, if we must resort to legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights, the proceedings could be burdensome and expensive, and could involve a high degree of risk to our proprietary rights if we are unsuccessful in, or cannot afford to pursue, such proceedings.

 

Our licensors have been granted three U.S. patents: Sequential Extracorporeal Treatment of Bodily Fluids, U.S. Patent No. 9,216,386; Utilization of Stents for the Treatment of Blood Borne Carcinomas, U.S. Patent No. 8,758,287; and Medication and Treatment for Disease, U.S. Patent No. 8,865,733, in the areas of cancer, sepsis, and multiple sclerosis. We expect these patents to cover the medical treatments for Multiple Sclerosis, Blood Sepsis, and Cancer and be effective until 2029. Our licensors have licensed these technologies to us pursuant to the terms of the license agreements. We anticipate that other technologies that derive from these patents will also belong to us and are covered by the license agreements. However, we have not conducted thorough prior art or novelty studies, but we are not aware of existing prior art that would prevent us from obtaining patents on our product candidates or methods and procedures of treatment. Prior art preventing us from obtaining broad patent protection is a possibility. Inability to obtain valid and enforceable patent protection would have a material negative impact on our business opportunities and success. Because the patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies are highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions, the patents may not be granted on our applications, and any future patents owned and licensed by us may not prevent other companies from developing competing products or ensure that others will not be issued patents that may prevent the sale of our products or require licensing and the payment of significant fees or royalties. Furthermore, to the extent that: (i) any of our future products or methods are not patentable; (ii) such products or methods infringe upon the patents of third parties; or (iii) our patents or future patents fail to give us an exclusive position in the subject matter to which such patents relate, our business will be adversely affected. We may be unable to avoid infringement of third-party patents and may have to obtain a license, or defend an infringement action and challenge the validity of such patents in court. A license may be unavailable on terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all. Patent litigation is costly and time consuming, and we may be unable to prevail in any such patent litigation or devote sufficient resources to even pursue such litigation. If we do not obtain a license under such patents, are found liable for infringement and are not able to have such patents declared invalid, we may be liable for significant monetary damages, encounter significant delays in bringing products to market or may be precluded from participating in the manufacture, use or sale of products or methods of treatment requiring such licenses.

 

 
26
 

 

We may also rely on trademarks, trade secrets and contract law to protect certain of our proprietary technology. There can be no assurance that any trademarks will be approved, that such contract will not be breached, or that if breached, we will have adequate remedies. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any of our trade secrets will not become known or independently discovered by third parties.

 

Additionally, we may, from time to time, support and collaborate in research conducted by universities and governmental research organizations. There can be no assurance that we will have or be able to acquire title or exclusive rights to the inventions or technical information derived from such collaborations, or that disputes will not arise with respect to rights in derivative or related research programs conducted by us or such collaborators.

 

Our future growth may be inhibited by the failure to implement new technologies.

 

Our future growth is partially tied to our ability to improve our knowledge and implementation of medical and pharmaceutical technologies. The inability to successfully implement commercially viable medical and pharmaceutical technologies in response to market conditions in a manner that is responsive to our customers' requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Risks Related To Our Common Stock

 

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and may be affected by market conditions beyond our control.

 

The market price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors:

 

 

·

variations in our operating results and market conditions specific to Biomedical Industry companies;

 

 

 

 

·

changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;

 

 

 

 

·

announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;

 

 

 

 

·

the emergence of new competitors;

 

 

 

 

·

operating and market price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable;

 

 

 

 

·

changes in our board or management;

 

 

 

 

·

sales or purchases of our common stock by insiders;

 

 

 

 

·

commencement of, or involvement in, litigation;

 

 

 

 

·

changes in governmental regulations; and

 

 

 

 

·

general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of related markets.

 

In addition, if the market for stocks in our industry or the stock market in general, experiences a loss of investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or results of operations. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause the price of our common stock to fall and may expose us to lawsuits that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to the board of directors and management.

 

 
27
 

 

If we are unable to pay the costs associated with being a public, reporting company, we may not be able to continue trading on the OTCQB and/or we may be forced to discontinue operations.

 

Our common stock is listed for trading on the OTCQB. We expect to have significant costs associated with being a public, reporting company, which may raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue trading on the OTCQB and/or continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue trading on the OTCQB and/or continue as a going concern will depend on positive cash flow, if any, from future operations and on our ability to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing. If we are unable to achieve the necessary product sales or raise or obtain needed funding to cover the costs of operating as a public, reporting company, our common stock may be deleted from the OTCQB and/or we may be forced to discontinue operations.

 

Our common stock is listed for quotation on the OTCQB tier of the marketplace maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc., which may make it more difficult for investors to resell their shares due to suitability requirements.

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of the marketplace maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc. Broker-dealers often decline to trade in over-the-counter stocks given the market for such securities are often limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of their shares. This could cause our stock price to decline.

 

Our principal stockholders have the ability to exert significant control in matters requiring stockholder approval and could delay, deter, or prevent a change in control of our company.

 

William A. Hartman and Dr. Mitchell S. Felder collectively own 9,453,944 shares of our outstanding common stock, 2,000,000 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (which is convertible into an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock), and through the exercise of warrants could acquire another 30,000,000 shares of our common stock. The shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock have 100 votes per share, giving these two shareholders the vast majority of our current voting securities. As a result, they have the ability to influence matters affecting our shareholders, including the election of our directors, the acquisition or disposition of our assets, and the future issuance of our shares. Because they control such shares, investors may find it difficult to replace our management if they disagree with the way our business is being operated. Because the influence by these shareholders could result in management making decisions that are in the best interest of those shareholders and not in the best interest of the investors, you may lose some or all of the value of your investment in our common stock. Investors who purchase our common stock should be willing to entrust all aspects of operational control to our current management team.

  

We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We do not intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We do not plan on making any cash distributions in the manner of a dividend or otherwise. Our Board presently intends to follow a policy of retaining earnings, if any.

 

 
28
 

 

We have outstanding convertible debt, which, if repaid will require a significant amount of capital, or if converted into our common stock could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

 

As of March 24, 2016, we had six convertible notes outstanding with a cumulative outstanding principal balance of $593,050. Repayment of the notes must be done at a premium to the then-outstanding balance, resulting in the need for approximately $609,000 in liquid capital. If, rather than repay these notes, we allow them to convert into our common stock, which conversions would be done at a discount to the market price of our common stock, resulting in the issuance of approximately 69,684,000 shares of our common stock (based on a conversion price of $0.0087 per share), all of which could be sold into the open market at the time of conversion. The potential dilutive effects of these conversions at various conversion prices below our most recent market price of $0.0174 per share is as follows:

139,367,816

 

 

We have the right to issue additional common stock and preferred stock without consent of stockholders. This would have the effect of diluting investors' ownership and could decrease the value of their investment.

 

We are authorized to issue up to 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, of which there are currently 89,579,908 shares issued and outstanding, and up to an additional 47,841,455 of which may be issued and outstanding if all of our currently outstanding preferred stock and warrants were exercised and converted into common stock. We therefore have up to an additional 862,578,637 authorized but unissued shares of our common stock that may be issued by us for any purpose without the consent or vote of our stockholders that would dilute stockholders' percentage ownership of our company.

 

In addition, our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of shares of preferred stock, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of which may be set by the Board of Directors. Our certificate of incorporation has authorized the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in the discretion of our Board. The shares of authorized but undesignated preferred stock may be issued upon filing of an amended certificate of incorporation and the payment of required fees; no further stockholder action is required. If issued, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of such preferred stock would be set by our Board and could operate to the disadvantage of the outstanding common stock. Such terms could include, among others, preferences as to dividends and distributions on liquidation.

 

Our officers and directors can sell some of their stock, which may have a negative effect on our stock price and ability to raise additional capital, and may make it difficult for investors to sell their stock at any price.

 

Our officers and directors, as a group, are the beneficial owners of 12,529,944 shares of our common stock, representing nearly 14% of our total issued shares, with options and warrants to purchase another 43,245,000 shares of our common stock, representing approximately an additional 28%. Each individual officer and director may be able to sell up to 1% of our outstanding stock (currently approximately 895,799 shares) every 90 days in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, which may have a negative effect on our stock price and may prevent us from obtaining additional capital. In addition, if our officers and directors are selling their stock into the open market, it may make it difficult or impossible for investors to sell their stock at any price.

Our common stock is governed under The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990.

 

The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Such exceptions include any equity security listed on NASDAQ and any equity security issued by an issuer that has (i) net tangible assets of at least $2,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for three years, (ii) net tangible assets of at least $5,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years, or (iii) average annual revenue of at least $6,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.

 

The forward looking statements contained in this annual report may prove incorrect.

 

This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements, including among others: (i) anticipated trends in our financial condition and results of operations; (ii) our business strategy for expanding distribution; and (iii) our ability to distinguish ourselves from our current and future competitors. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. In addition to the other risks described elsewhere in this "Risk Factors" discussion, important factors to consider in evaluating such forward-looking statements include: (i) changes to external competitive market factors or in our internal budgeting process which might impact trends in our results of operations; (ii) anticipated working capital or other cash requirements; (iii) changes in our business strategy or an inability to execute our strategy due to unanticipated changes in the biotechnology industry; and (iv) various competitive factors that may prevent us from competing successfully in the marketplace. In light of these risks and uncertainties, many of which are described in greater detail elsewhere in this "Risk Factors" discussion, there can be no assurance that the events predicted in forward-looking statements contained in this annual report will, in fact, transpire.

 

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

We have made forward-looking statements in this Annual Report, including the sections entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business," that are based on our management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, financing plans, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, the effects of future regulation, and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate" or similar expressions. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks outlined under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this annual report.

 

 
30
 

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, events, levels of activity, performance or achievement. We are not under any duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this annual report to conform these statements to actual results, unless required by law.

 

ITEM 1B – UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

 

This Item is not applicable to us as we are not an accelerated filer, a large accelerated filer, or a well-seasoned issuer; however, we are voluntarily disclosing that we have not received any written comments from the Commission staff within the 180 days before the end of our fiscal year to which this Annual Report relates regarding our periodic or current reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

ITEM 2 – PROPERTIES

 

We do not currently lease or use any office space. We have not paid any amounts to Mr. Hartman for the use of his personal office or for reimbursement of personal office expenses incurred by him.

 

ITEM 3 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are not a party to or otherwise involved in any legal proceedings.

 

In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. However, in the opinion of our management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

ITEM 4 – MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

 

Not applicable.

The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a few exceptions which we do not meet. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.

 

Holders

 

As of March 14, 2016, there were 89,579,908 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and held by 130 holders of record, not including shares held in "street name" in brokerage accounts which is unknown.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and do not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. We intend to apply our earnings, if any, in expanding our operations and related activities. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon such factors as earnings levels, capital requirements, our financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

Recent Issuance of Unregistered Securities

 

The following sales of equity securities by the Company occurred during the three month period ended December 31, 2015:

 

Warrant Exercise

 

On October 1, 2015, we issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144, to Mitchell Felder, one of our directors, upon the exercise of warrants at $0.00001 per share. The issuance was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The purchaser was an accredited and sophisticated investor, familiar with our operations, and there was no solicitation.

 

Director Warrants

 

Effective as of October 21, 2015, we issued warrants to the following officers and directors, which will allow them to purchase shares of our common stock in the amounts indicated: William Hartman (1,000,000 shares); Mitchell Felder (1,000,000 shares), Heidi Carl (750,000 shares), John Borza (600,000 shares), Richard Najarian (200,000 shares), and Jay Rosen (200,000 shares). We also issued warrants to purchase a total of one million eight hundred thousand (1,800,000) shares of our common stock to six members of our Scientific Advisory Board. The exercise price of the foregoing warrants is Five Cents ($0.05) per share.

 

One half of the shares underlying each of the respective warrants vest on June 15, 2016, with the balance vesting on December 15, 2016. In order for the warrants to vest on each of the foregoing dates, however, the holders must be serving in the same capacity on behalf of the Company as he or she was serving on October 21, 2015. The issuance of the warrants was fully approved by our Board of Directors on October 21, 2015, the date a fully executed resolution authorizing the issuance was delivered to us. The issuances were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, the investors are sophisticated and familiar with our operations, and there was no solicitation in connection with the issuance.

Redwood Management, LLC

 

On December 28, 2015, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Redwood Management, LLC ("Redwood"), pursuant to which we agreed to sell, and Redwood agreed to purchase, One Million Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,600,000) in 10% Convertible Promissory Notes. On February 26, 2016, and again on March 7, 2016, the Securities Purchase Agreement was amended, and the total amount of funding to which Redwood is obligated was reduced to $525,000. The Notes have an original issue discount of five percent (5%). The first note was issued on December 28, 2015 in the face amount of One Hundred Fifty Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($157,500), to Redwood Management, LLC. The second note was issued on January 8, 2016, in the face amount of One Hundred Thirty One Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($131,250), to Redwood Fund III Ltd. The third note was issued on February 22, 2016, in the face amount of Seventy Eight Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($78,750), to Redwood Management, LLC. The fourth note was issued on March 7, 2016, in the face amount of Seventy Eight Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($78,750), to Redwood Management, LLC. The fifth and final note was issued on March 11, 2016, in the face amount of One Hundred Five Thousand Dollars ($105,000). The maturity date of each note is nine (9) months after its issuance. Each note will be convertible after ninety (90) days into our common stock at a conversion price equal to 60% of the lowest traded price of the Common Stock in the fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the Conversion Date. The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes will be restricted securities as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The notes can be prepaid by us at any time upon ten (10) days written notice to Redwood for a cash amount equal to the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest multiplied by 130%. Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to register the shares underlying conversion of the notes. The purchase and sale of the initial Note closed on December 28, 2015, the date that the purchase price was delivered to us.The issuance of the Note was exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The purchaser was an accredited and sophisticated investor, familiar with our operations, and there was no solicitation.

 

ITEM 6 – SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

 

As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

ITEM 7 – MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

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 of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). 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; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; 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 Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Although the forward-looking statements in this Annual 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.

Summary Overview

 

We are a research-based company that intends to discover and develop medical treatments for humans, specifically targeting the treatment of Cancer, Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS/Lou Gehrig's Disease), Blood Sepsis, Leukemia, and other life-threatening cancers, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, Neuropathic Pain and Traumatic Brain Injury.

 

We have not generated any revenue to date, and we do not currently have a product ready for market.

 

Going Concern

 

As a result of our financial condition, we have received a report from our independent registered public accounting firm for our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 that includes an explanatory paragraph describing the uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In order to continue as a going concern we must effectively balance many factors and begin to generate revenue so that we can fund our operations from our sales and revenues. If we are not able to do this we may not be able to continue as an operating company. At our current revenue and burn rate, our cash on hand will last less than one month, and thus we must raise capital by issuing debt or through the sale of our stock. However, there is no assurance that our existing cash flow will be adequate to satisfy our existing operating expenses and capital requirements.

 

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

 

Introduction

 

We had no revenues for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Our operating expenses were $2,383,282 for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $1,368,932 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $1,014,350, or 74%. Our operating expenses consisted of research and development costs, general and administrative expenses, and professional fees as we incurred additional research and development costs and as we provided stock based compensation to our Officers and Directors.

Revenues

 

The Company was established on May 10, 2010, and has had no revenues to date.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses were $234,095 for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $196,179 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $37,916, or 19%. The expenses were the continued research and development costs through our partners, specifically the University of Texas at El Paso, incurred during the year ended December 31, 2015 related to the development of our patented technologies, and increased slightly because we had asked them in 2014 to slow down their efforts when our cash flow would not permit it.

 

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses were $133,289 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to $223,434 for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $90,145, or 40%. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the compensation related to stock issuances to Directors incurred during the year ended December 31, 2015 that was not incurred during the comparative year ended December 31, 2014.

 

Professional Fees

 

Professional fees expense was $2,015,898 for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $949,319 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $1,066,579, or 112%. The increase was primarily due to increased stock based compensation issued to consultants for services rendered.

 

Net Operating Loss

 

Net operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $2,383,282 compared to a net operating loss of $1,368,932 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $1,014,350, or 74%. Net operating loss increased, as set forth above, primarily due to increased stock based compensation issued to directors and consultants for services rendered.

 

Other Expense

 

Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $198,889 compared to $41,582 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $157,307, or 378%. Other expense for both years consisted of interest and finance charges on debt and equity financing.

Net Loss

 

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $2,582,171, or $(0.08) per share, compared to a net loss of $1,410,514, or $(0.07) per share, for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $1,171,657, or 83%. Net loss increased, as set forth above, primarily due to increased stock based compensation issued to directors and consultants for services rendered.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Introduction

 

During the year ended December 31, 2015, because we did not generate any revenues, we had negative operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of December 31, 2015 was $35,414, which was derived from the sale of convertible promissory notes to investors. Our monthly cash flow burn rate has decreased from approximately $53,000 in 2014 to approximately $39,000 in 2015. Although we have moderate short term cash needs, as our operating expenses increase we will face strong medium to long term cash needs. We anticipate that these needs will be satisfied through the issuance of debt or the sale of our securities until such time as our cash flows from operations will satisfy our cash flow needs.

 

Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, are as follows:

Our cash decreased by $67,185 as of December 31, 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014 because we incurred research and development costs in the fourth quarter of 2015 and weren't able to sell several convertible promissory notes. Our total current assets decreased by $48,991 primarily for the same reason. Our total assets decreased by $50,453 primarily for the same reasons.

 

Our current liabilities increased by $158,111 as of December 31, 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014 primarily due to an increase in accounts payable of $40,774, accounts payable to related parties of $29,369, accrued interest of $8,241, convertible notes payable of $49,727, and notes payable to related parties of $30,000. Our total liabilities increased by the same $158,111 for the same reasons.

 

In order to repay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise significant capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.

Cash Requirements

 

Our cash on hand as of December 31, 2015 was $35,414, which was derived from the sale of convertible promissory notes. Our monthly cash flow burn rate is approximately $39,000. Although we have moderate short term cash needs, as our operating expenses increase we will face strong medium to long term cash needs. We anticipate that these needs will be satisfied through the sale of our securities until such time as our cash flows from operations will satisfy our cash flow needs.

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

Operations

 

Our net cash used in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $462,225 and $639,077, respectively, a decrease of $176,852, or 28%. The decrease primarily consisted of our increased net loss from operations of $1,171,657, offset in part by an increase in amortization of debt discounts of $155,396, an increase of stock based compensation to related parties of $1,134,642, and an increase in accounts payable to related parties of $43,942.

 

Investments

 

Our net cash used in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was zero and $2,374, respectively, a decrease of $2,374. The slight decrease reflected a lack of purchases of property and equipment in 2015 compared to 2014.

 

Financing

 

Our net cash provided by financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $395,040 and $728,250, respectively, a decrease of $333,210, or 46%. The decrease was a result of an increase in proceeds from the sale of convertible notes payable of $290,000, from $75,000 to $365,000, and an increase in the proceeds from the sale of notes payable to related parties of $30,000, offset by a decrease in repayments in notes payable tor elated parties of $109,000 and a decrease in the proceeds from the sale of common stock of $762,250, to zero.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Nature of Business

 

Premier Biomedical, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Nevada on May 10, 2010. The Company was formed to develop and market medications and procedures that address several highly visible health issues. The Company will introduce these medications and procedures to large pharmaceutical firms via publication in medical journals and by direct contact.

 

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.

 

 
38
 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the 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.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We maintain cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts, which do not currently exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

Patent rights and applications

 

Patent rights and applications costs include the acquisition costs and costs incurred for the filing of patents. Patent rights and applications are amortized on a straight-line basis over the legal life of the patent rights beginning at the time the patents are approved. Patent costs for unsuccessful patent applications, or when reviews determine a future economic benefit is uncertain, are expensed when the application is terminated.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company had no items that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

 

 
39
 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company's stock based compensation consisted of the following during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

Revenue Recognition

 

Sales on fixed price contracts are recorded when services are earned, the earnings process is complete or substantially complete, and the revenue is measurable and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue from sales in which payment has been received, but the earnings process has not occurred. No sales have yet commenced.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses were $59,956 and $159,411 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable 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. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be recovered through future operations.

 

 
40
 

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

In accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"), the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be capable of withstanding examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company's income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company's tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities.

 

The assessment of the Company's tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company's various filing positions.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-16, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The provisions of the update require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment. The update also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. It also eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. ASU No. 2016-16 requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. It also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The update requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by category and form on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. In addition, the update clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity's other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued an ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes ("ASU 2015-17"). Under current GAAP, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are separated into current and noncurrent amounts in the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 requires all deferred assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent in the balance sheet. The standard will be effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

 

 
41
 

 

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments ("ASU 2015-16"), which require an acquiring Company to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. GAAP requires that during the measurement period, the acquirer retrospectively adjust the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. Those adjustments are required when new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts initially recorded. To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination, the amendments in the update eliminate the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments. This ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those years. Disclosure of the nature and reason for the change should be made in the first period, including interim periods, there is a measurement period adjustment.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) ("ASU 2015-03"), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. For public business entities, ASU 2015-03 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, ASU 2015-03 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company will adopt ASU 2015-03 on its balance sheets retrospectively during the interim period ending March 31, 2016.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). This guidance clarifies that an entity's management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and annual and interim periods thereafter, and early application is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-15 on its financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early application is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. We do not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the year ended December 31, 2015, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

Premier Biomedical, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Premier Biomedical, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Premier Biomedical, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has insufficient working capital, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Business

 

Premier Biomedical, Inc. ("the Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 10, 2010 ("Inception"). The Company was formed to develop and market medications and procedures that address a significant number of the most highly visible health issues currently affecting mankind. The Company will market these medications and procedures to leading worldwide pharmaceutical firms via publication in medical journals and by direct contact.

 

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the 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.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We maintain cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts, which do not currently exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

Patent Rights and Applications

 

Patent rights and applications costs include the acquisition costs and costs incurred for the filing of patents. Patent rights and applications are amortized on a straight-line basis over the legal life of the patent rights beginning at the time the patents are approved. Patent costs for unsuccessful patent applications are expensed when the application is terminated.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company's stock based compensation consisted of the following during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

$754,386

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Sales on fixed price contracts are recorded when services are earned, the earnings process is complete or substantially complete, and the revenue is measurable and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue from sales in which payment has been received, but the earnings process has not occurred. Sales have not yet commenced.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses were $59,956 and $159,411 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable 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. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be recovered through future operations.

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

In accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"), the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be capable of withstanding examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company's income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company's tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities.

 

The assessment of the Company's tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company's various filing positions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-16, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The provisions of the update require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment. The update also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. It also eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. ASU No. 2016-16 requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. It also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The update requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by category and form on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. In addition, the update clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity's other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued an ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes ("ASU 2015-17"). Under current GAAP, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are separated into current and noncurrent amounts in the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 requires all deferred assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent in the balance sheet. The standard will be effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

 

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments ("ASU 2015-16"), which require an acquiring Company to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. GAAP requires that during the measurement period, the acquirer retrospectively adjust the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. Those adjustments are required when new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts initially recorded. To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination, the amendments in the update eliminate the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments. This ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those years. Disclosure of the nature and reason for the change should be made in the first period, including interim periods, there is a measurement period adjustment.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) ("ASU 2015-03"), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. For public business entities, ASU 2015-03 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, ASU 2015-03 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company will adopt ASU 2015-03 on its balance sheets retrospectively during the interim period ending March 31, 2016.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ("ASU 2014-15"). This guidance clarifies that an entity's management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and annual and interim periods thereafter, and early application is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-15 on its financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early application is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. We do not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the year ended December 31, 2015, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no revenues, incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $10,777,797, and had negative working capital of ($279,970) at December 31, 2015. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new products and services to begin generating revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful; therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4Patent Rights and Applications

 

The Company amortizes its patent rights and applications on a straight line basis over the expected useful technological or economic life of the patents, which is typically 17 years from the legal approval of the patent applications when there is probable future economic benefits associated with the patent. The Company has elected to expense all of their patent rights and application costs due to difficulties associated with having to prove the value of their future economic benefits. All patent applications are currently pending and the Company has no patents that have yet been approved. It is the Company's policy that it performs reviews of the carrying value of its patent rights and applications on an annual basis.

  

On March 4, 2015, we entered into a Patent License Agreement ("PLA") with the University of Texas at El Paso ("UTEP") regarding our joint research and development of CTLA-4 Blockade with Metronomic Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Breast Cancer. This is the first PLA with UTEP following our Collaborative Agreement with them dated May 9, 2012, and memorializes the joint ownership of the applicable patent and the financial and other terms related thereto.

 

On June 19, 2015, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to this Agreement, pursuant to which we explicitly included Provisional Patent Application No. 62/161,116 entitled, "Anti-CTLA-4 Blockade" (the "Application") under the definition of "Patent Rights" as set forth in the PLA. The Application was filed with the United States Patent and Trademarks Office on May 13, 2015; the underlying technology was invented by Robert Kirken and Georgialina Rodriguez, and is solely-owned by The Board of Regents of The University of Texas System.

Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

 

The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company's financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

On November 25, 2014, the Company received an unsecured loan from Typenex Co-Investment, LLC ("First Typenex Note") in the amount of $86,500, bearing interest at 10%, maturing on August 25, 2015, in exchange for net proceeds of $75,000 after the deduction of $4,000 of loan origination costs and an original issue discount ("OID") of $7,500. The Company also issued Typenex warrants to purchase 351,455 shares of common stock at a strike price of $0.18 per share over a five year term from the date of investment. The principal and interest is convertible into shares of common stock at the discretion of the note holder at the lesser of (i) $0.18 per share, or (ii) 70% (the "Conversion Factor") multiplied by the Market Price (as defined in the Note). If the Market Price of our common stock falls below $0.10 per share after the issuance of the Note, the Conversion Factor will automatically be reduced by 5% for all conversions completed while the Market Price is below $0.10 per share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, the Conversion Price shall be not less than $0.0001 (the "Conversion Floor"). For the avoidance of doubt, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Conversion Floor shall not apply to any future Conversions and shall be of no further force or effect. The note can be prepaid upon notice to Typenex any time prior to the first conversion at a premium of 120% of the then outstanding balance of the Note. The note carries a default interest rate of 22% per annum. The note holder elected to convert a total of $93,354, consisting of $86,500 of principal and $6,854 of interest, in exchange for 17,852,380 shares of common stock on various dates between June 3, 2015 and December 1, 2015.

In addition, the Company recognized and measured the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the convertible debts by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of the feature to additional paid-in-capital. The intrinsic value of the feature was calculated on the commitment date using the effective conversion price of the convertible debt. This intrinsic value is limited to the portion of the proceeds allocated to the convertible debt.

 

The aforementioned accounting treatment resulted in debt discounts equal to $318,048 and $82,500 during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Note 9Equity Line of Credit

 

On January 17, 2014, the Company's registration statement became effective whereby it registered 15 million shares of common stock that it would sell to Kodiak Capital Group, LLC ("Kodiak") over time pursuant to an Investment Agreement entered into on December 5, 2013 wherein Kodiak agreed to invest up to five million dollars ($5,000,000). The offering was to terminate on the earlier of (i) when all 15 million shares are sold, (ii) when the maximum offering amount of $5,000,000 has been achieved, or (iii) on January 17, 2016, unless the Company terminated it earlier. The investment Agreement included a termination date of July 17, 2014, but on July 9, 2014 it was extended to run through July 17, 2015. On October 16, 2014, we exercised our right to terminate the contract upon written notice to Kodiak.

 

The Company could not submit a new put notice until after the closing of the previous notice. The purchase price for the shares pursuant to the put notice was to be equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of the lowest closing best bid price of the common stock during the five consecutive trading days immediately following the date of our notice to Kodiak ("Put Notice") of our election to put shares pursuant to the Investment Agreement, subject to a limitation, whereby Kodiak's holdings could not exceed 9.9% of the outstanding shares of common stock. The shares had to be paid for and share certificates delivered within the "pricing period," which was five (5) trading days from the date the put notice is delivered ("Put Date").

 

On October 15, 2013, the Company paid to Kodiak an initial fee of $10,000 and issued 391,398 shares of common stock following execution of the Agreement, along with the issuance of another 167,742 shares to Manners, Inc. as commitment fees. In addition, the Company agreed to pay a consulting firm, Cambridge Partners Atlanta Group, LLC ("Cambridge"), an introduction fee payable as follows: (i) ten percent (10%) of the first $1,000,000 in total draws, (ii) seven percent (7%) on the draws from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000; and (iii) five percent (5%) on all draws in excess of $1,500,000. Cambridge was entitled to these introduction fees on all proceeds received from Kodiak until the termination date of the consulting agreement, which was September 26, 2015 until we exercised our right to terminate the contract on October 16, 2014.

 

The Company used the proceeds from the sale of common stock pursuant to the agreement to pay down debt, research and development activities, general corporate and working capital purposes, and for other purposes that the board of directors deems to be in the best interest of the Company.

 

As of the date of this report, the Company had sold a total of 2,022,894 shares of common stock in exchange for total proceeds of $700,000 pursuant to the investment agreement, in addition to the initial issuance of 559,140 common shares as a commitment fee.

The fair value of each warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants under the fixed option plan:

The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of short-term traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's series A preferred stock warrants have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its series A preferred stock warrants. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 there were no warrants granted with an exercise price below the fair value of the underlying stock at the grant date.

 

There were no series A preferred stock warrants granted during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

The fair value of each warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants under the fixed option plan:

The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of short-term traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's common stock warrants have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its common stock warrants. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 there were no warrants granted with an exercise price below the fair value of the underlying stock at the grant date.

Note 13 – Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $2,662,993 and $1,930,314 of federal net operating losses, respectively. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2031.

 

The components of the Company's deferred tax asset are as follows:

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company's history of losses, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

ITEM 9 CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

There are no events required to be disclosed under this Item.

 

ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2015, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission's rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of December 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described in Item 9A(b).

 

Our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

(b) Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officer 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 generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

 

·

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and any disposition of our assets;

 

 

 

 

·

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations 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 the financial statements.

 

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

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a 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. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, Management identified the following two material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of December 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

 

1.

We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

2.

We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

 
45
 

 

To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only our management's report in this Annual Report.

 

(c) Remediation of Material Weaknesses

 

To remediate the material weakness in our documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls we plan to engage a third-party firm to assist us in remedying this material weakness once resources become available.

 

We also intend to remedy our material weakness with regard to insufficient segregation of duties by hiring additional employees in order to segregate duties in a manner that establishes effective internal controls once resources become available.

 

(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Other Directorships; Director Independence

 

Other than as set forth above, none of our officers and directors is a director of any company with a class of securities registered pursuant to section 12 of the Exchange Act or subject to the requirements of section 15(d) of such Act or any company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

 

 
48
 

 

For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTCQB on which shares of common stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements. The NASDAQ definition of "Independent Officer" means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. According to the NASDAQ definition, Mssrs. Rosen and Borza are independent directors.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

 

To the Company's knowledge, the following is a list of individuals that have not filed, or filed late, a report reflecting a change in ownership as required pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Act of 1934:

Board Committees

 

Our Board of Directors does not maintain a separate audit, nominating or compensation committee. Functions customarily performed by such committees are performed by its Board of Directors as a whole. We are not required to maintain such committees under the applicable rules of the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. We do not currently have an "audit committee financial expert" since we currently do not have an audit committee in place. We intend to create board committees, including an independent audit committee, in the near future.

 

We do not currently have a process for security holders to send communications to the Board.

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Board of Directors met approximately on a bi-weekly basis.

 

 
49
 

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

None of our officers or directors has, in the past ten years, filed bankruptcy, been convicted in a criminal proceeding or named in a pending criminal proceeding, been the subject of any order, judgment, or decree of any court permanently or temporarily enjoining him or her from any securities activities, or any other disclosable event required by Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have not adopted a written code of ethics, primarily because we believe and understand that our officers and directors adhere to and follow ethical standards without the necessity of a written policy.

 

ITEM 11 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 

Narrative Disclosure of Executive Compensation

 

Effective on September 28, 2012, we entered into employment agreements with our President and Chief Executive Officer, William A.

The agreement has a one-year term and provides for two (2) years of severance in the event Hartman is terminated due to death, disability or without cause.

ITEM 13 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Employment Agreements

 

Effective on September 28, 2012, we entered into employment agreements with our President and Chief Executive Officer, William A. Hartman, and our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board, Dr. Mitchell S. Felder. In December 2012, the Company and Dr. Felder agreed to terminate his employment agreement, effective as of its date of inception.

 

Pursuant to the employment agreement with Hartman, he will be compensated in the amount of $150,000 per year for the duration of the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Hartman has waived the salary and the accrual thereof in exchange for being issued a Common Stock Purchase Warrant whereby Hartman may purchase a maximum of 105,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $1.45. The agreement has a one-year term and provides for two (2) years of severance in the event Hartman is terminated due to death, disability or without cause.

 

License Agreements

 

On May 12, 2010, we entered into two separate License Agreements. One License Agreement was entered into with Altman Enterprises, LLC, wherein we obtained certain exclusive rights in (i) proprietary technology that is the subject of one pending PCT patent application relating to the treatment of auto-immune diseases, and (ii) the "Feldetrex" trademark. The other License Agreement was entered into with Marv Enterprises, LLC, wherein we obtained certain exclusive rights in proprietary technology that is the subject of two PCT patent applications relating to the treatment of blood borne carcinomas and sequential extracorporeal treatment of blood. Authority to execute the License Agreements on behalf of Altman and Marv is vested in Dr. Mitchell S. Felder, the Chairman of our Board of Directors. Because the licensors are controlled by one of our directors, there may exist a conflict of interest in decisions made by the Company with respect to the licenses.

 

As consideration for the two licenses, we agreed to (i) pay a royalty of five percent (5%) of any sales of products using the technology, with no minimum royalty, and (ii) reimburse the licensor for any costs already incurred in pursuing its proprietary rights in the licensed technology and pay any costs incurred for maintaining or obtaining the licensors' proprietary rights in the licensed technology in the U.S. and in extending the intellectual property to other countries around the world. Licensor shall have sole discretion to select other countries into which exclusive rights in the licensed technology may be pursued, and if we decline to pay those expenses, then licensor may pay said expenses and our licensed rights in those countries will revert to the licensor.

 

As of December 31, 2015, we have not generated any revenues and thus have not paid any license fees. We have, however, paid $142,873 in reimbursement of expenses associated with the technology we have licensed, and owe them an additional $37,486.

Stock Issuances

 

Preferred Stock

 

On January 2, 2016, two of our officers and directors, William A. Hartman and Mitchell Felder, exercised warrants to acquire one million (1,000,000) shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock each. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at the election of the holder thereof, into one (1) share of our common stock, and has one hundred (100) votes per share. We issued the warrants on June 21, 2010 and they have an exercise price of $0.001 per share.

 

The Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into one share of common stock for each share of Preferred Stock converted. The holders of our Preferred Stock also have 100 votes per share of Preferred Stock that they hold. It also contains protective provisions as follows:

 

The Company may not take any of the following actions without the approval of a majority of the holders of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock: (i) effect a sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or which results in the holders of the Company's capital stock prior to the transaction owning less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company's capital stock after the transaction, (ii) alter or change the rights, preferences, or privileges of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (iii) increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (iv) authorize the issuance of securities having a preference over or on par with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or (v) effectuate a forward or reverse stock split or dividend of the Company's common stock.

Najarian purchased 1,500,000 shares, John S. Borza purchased 1,000,000 shares, and Mitchell Felder purchased 500,000 shares, for total cash consideration of $150,000. The issuances were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, and all parties receiving shares of common stock were accredited investors because they are members of our Board of Directors.

 

On October 1, 2012, we issued Common stock Purchase Warrants to Richard T. Najarian and John S. Borza for their services as members of our Board of Directors. Pursuant to the warrants, both will be able to purchase a maximum of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.45. The warrants may be exercised immediately.

Hartman and Dr. Felder each received warrants to purchase 105,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.45, vesting in two (2) tranches, on January 15, 2013 and June 15, 2013, each with the condition that our common stock reach a closing bid price of Three Dollars ($3.00) per share and remain at or above Three Dollars ($3.00) per share for thirty (30) consecutive trading days and that the individual is an employee of or rendering services to the Company on such date. In December 2012, the Company and Dr. Felder agreed to terminate his employment agreement, effective as of its date of inception. The other four (4) executives received warrants to purchase 70,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.45, also vesting in two (2) tranches, on January 15, 2013 and June 15, 2013, each with the condition that our common stock reach a closing bid price of Three Dollars ($3.00) per share and remain at or above Three Dollars ($3.00) per share for thirty (30) consecutive trading days and that the individual is an employee of or rendering services to the Company on such date.

 

On January 20, 2011, we issued 500,000 founders shares of our common stock to Scott Barnes, for services rendered as a director. The shares are restricted in accordance with Rule 144. The issuances were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the shareholder was a sophisticated investor, had access to the type of information that is normally available in a prospectus, and agreed not to resell or distribute the securities to the public.

Directors Notes

 

On December 2, 2013, we entered into a Directors Bridge Loan Agreement Promissory Note dated November 18, 2013 with each of William A. Hartman, one of our officers and directors, and John S. Borza, one of our directors. Pursuant to each Promissory Note, we borrowed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000). The principal amount of each Promissory Note, plus the Prepayment Premium (defined below), shall be due and payable on or before the earlier of (a) the date which is nine (9) months from the date of the note, or (b) three (3) business days following the receipt by us of funding (net of offering expenses, including finders fees, commissions, legal and other fees, and discounts) from any source, of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the "Maturity Date"). The Prepayment Premium shall be determined by multiplying the then-outstanding principal amount of the Promissory Note by the Prepayment Premium based on the following schedule:

 

No. of Days After Issue Date:

 

Prepayment Premium:

 

0-30 days

 

 

115%

31-60 days

 

 

120%

61-90 days

 

 

125%

91-120 days

 

 

130%

121 days or more

 

 

135%

 

In the event the Promissory Note is not prepaid prior to the Maturity Date, the Prepayment Premium of 135% shall apply. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount on an annual basis at a rate of eight percent (8.0%).
