Exhibit A-1

Verification of giant circulating macrophages by microfiltration using whole blood from tumor bearing patients

Rationale: There is extant published data showing that a giant circulating macrophage-like cell (DTA M cells) is present in whole blood in all tumor bearing humans tested, while none of these cells are detectable in non-tumor bearing human blood samples. These DTA M cells express macrophage markers, seem to be phagocytic and may be detected through a number of techniques. Detection of this cell and its functions could lead to development of a simple test for tumor bearing individuals, response to therapy etc. Verification of these observations and further development is needed to develop a commercial test by Collaborator.
