7.A therapeutic strategy that could inhibit the proliferation of immunosuppressive exosomes released by solid tumors, lymphomas and leukemias would fill a significant unmet medical need in cancer care
8.What are Exosomes?• Cancer cells, both in vivo and in vitro, have been demonstrated to release membranous structures, defined as exosomes
9.Researchers have recently unveiled several roles that exosomes play in accelerating cancer progression
10.The resulting research publications are reporting that................
11.Exosomes cause apoptosis or programmed cell death of immune cells
12.Exosomes disrupt signaling of anti-cancer T cells
13.Exosomes contribute to tumor angiogenesis
14.Exosomes enhance the spread of tumor metastasis
15.The quantity of exosomes in circulation is indirect correlation with cancer progression
16.What if exosomes could be eliminated from circulation?
17.The Aethlon Hemopurifier® The first therapeutic candidate to eliminate cancer exosomes from circulation

19.Providing access to the entire circulatory system• Exosomes can be accessed from entire circulatory system, which can pass through the Hemopurifier® in as little as 15 minutes
20.Hemopurifier® therapy has the advantage of beingdelivered through the global infrastructure of dialysismachines that are already located in hospitals in clinics
21.Our goal is to improve patient responsiveness to traditional chemotherapies and emerging classes of immune based therapies
