Helix cleared to test topical interferon alpha-2B in Germany

28 September 2008

Canada's Helix BioPharma says that it has received the necessary regulatory approvals to open clinical sites in Germany to expand upon its clinical trial with topical interferon alpha-2b in patients with ano-genital warts, which is presently underway in Sweden.

John Docherty, president of Helix, said: "the opening of sites in Germany will grant us access to expanded clinical resources and a larger patient pool in order to enhance the recruitment rate of our trial." These additional sites xare intended to compensate for a lower-than-expected patient enrollment rate thus far in Sweden.
