Note Regarding Gene Therapy Product Candidates
Cardium Therapeutics is focusing on developing gene therapies for the potential treatment of cardiovascular diseases. To date, no gene therapy products have completed large-scale clinical testing or been approved for sale or use in humans. Product candidates need to complete testing in human clinical trials to provide a basis for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or other health regulatory agency to review and potentially approve them for use in humans. The outcome of each stage of these clinical trials is necessarily uncertain as to the actual and perceived safety and efficacy of each potential treatment and the FDA would have to review and approve a licensing application before a product candidate could be marketed for any indication. Success in preclinical and early clinical trials does not ensure that later-stage or larger-scale clinical trials would be successful. Nor can there be any assurance that a product would ultimately prove to be safe and effective in humans. Please see the "Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this Web site for additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties.
