ITEM 1.     DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
We were incorporated in Texas in December 1997 under the name Whispering Oaks International, Inc.  Between March 2001 and October 2009 we did business under the name Biocurex, Inc.   In October 2009 our shareholders approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation which officially changed our name to Biocurex, Inc.

Overview

We are a development stage company focusing on developing and commercializing products for the early detection, diagnosis and monitoring the recurrence of cancer. We have developed a blood test that can detect the presence of cancer in humans and animals using a new cancer marker named RECAF. We developed and own, royalty-free, the proprietary technology related to the RECAF marker, with patents granted in the United States, Europe and China and pending in other major worldwide markets.

RECAF is a molecule found on most cancer cells, including breast, colon, prostate and lung cancers, but not on normal cells. RECAF can be used in blood tests to determine if a patient has cancer. The blood test can be formatted for use on automated instrumentation typically found in large clinical and hospital laboratories or manually. It can also be formatted as a point-of-care (POC) single use rapid test for use in physicians’ offices, urgent care facilities and at the bedside. Once approved by the FDA, the tests could be used in general screening or in high risk patients to determine if an individual has cancer. It could also be used to detect recurrence of cancer in patients after therapy.

Unlike other cancer markers mentioned in the American Cancer Society website (www.cancer.org) that only detect the presence of a specific cancer type (CEA for colon cancer and PSA for prostate cancer), RECAF is found on most types of cancer and, therefore, could have much broader use than most other cancer markers in development or currently in use. Moreover, unlike these existing cancer markers, RECAF has been shown to detect early stages of breast and prostate cancers when the likelihood of cure is highest.

We have granted Abbott and Inverness, two large diagnostic equipment manufacturers, semi-exclusive licenses to use the RECAF tests on blood samples processed in automatic equipment typically found only in large clinical/hospital laboratories and non-exclusive licenses for other test formats. Under the terms of these licenses, we can grant one additional similar semi-exclusive license for automated testing and we have retained rights for manual tests not processed in automatic equipment, POC rapid tests for the physicians’ office, including all other single-format potential uses and all test formats used for veterinary applications. The Abbott license has been amended to relieve them of research and development responsibilities and, to our knowledge, they have not taken any steps towards commercializing our technology. Inverness has been conducting research and development trying to adapt our technology to their diagnostic platform. However, to our knowledge, they have not yet reached the stage where they are prepared to enter into clinical trials in order to obtain FDA approval or to commercialize our technology or any related products.

We have previously developed the following tests, which are no longer the focus of our growth plans, for the detection of cancer in tissue or cells based on RECAF technology:

  
Histo-RECAF—a tissue-based cancer detection test that involves staining cancer cells, thereby allowing a pathologist to easily view the cancer cells with the use of a microscope; and
 
  
Cryo-RECAF—a cell-based cancer detection test that can be used by pathologists during surgery to determine whether cancer cells are benign or malignant.

See “Business Strategy” below for information concerning our principal objectives for the twelve months ending January 31, 2013.

Cancer

Cancer is a term used for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control and are able to invade other healthy tissue. Cancer cells spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymph systems. There are more than 100 different types of cancers which are named for the organ or type of cell in which they appear - e.g., lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, liver cancer and stomach cancer.

The American Cancer Society has estimated that there were over 1.5 million new cancer diagnoses in the USA and roughly 570,000 million deaths during 2011. Although the United States has reported declining cancer-related deaths for the past few years, the World Health Organization estimates that worldwide there will likely be approximately 16 million new cancer diagnoses annually by the year 2020, with roughly 10 million related deaths each year. Over the next 20 years, the global incidence of cancer is projected to increase by 50%.  We believe that the growing numbers of people developing and living with cancer will continue to increase the demand for cancer diagnostic products. In particular, two diagnostic areas that have significant unmet need are the early detection of primary cancer and early detection of recurrence after therapy.

Market Dynamics

The oncology market is one of the largest pharmaceutical markets. The global cancer market is forecast to grow at an average annual growth rate of over 5% to an estimated $60  billion in 2012, up from $38.5 billion in 2003.  The National Institutes of Health estimates that the overall costs of cancer in 2010 were estimated to be $$263.8 billion, composed of $102.8 billion for direct medical costs (total of all health expenditures), $20.9 billion for indirect morbidity costs (cost of lost productivity due to illness), and $140.1  billion for indirect mortality costs (cost of lost productivity due to premature death).

Worldwide Cancer Diagnostics Market

As of 2010, the global in vitro diagnostics market for  diagnostic tests exceeded $46 billion annually Within the overall market the molecular diagnostic testing market sector is growing by approximately 10% each year and forecast to reach over $10.2 billion by 2012, with a forecast number of tests close to 550 million per annum. Within this larger diagnostics market, cancer testing is anticipated to experience some of the most robust growth over the next three to five years, having recently exceeded $1 billion in annual sales. We believe that the primary drivers for sales of diagnostic products for cancer markers are performance, price, service and marketing. At present, the five largest markets for these products are the United States, Europe, Japan, China and India.

Need for Improved Early Detection Methods

Cancer that is detected early has the best prognosis. If cancer is diagnosed early in the disease process, before it spreads (metastasizes) to surrounding tissue, physicians are more likely to be able to successfully treat the patient and the likelihood of survival can be significantly increased. Surgical removal of malignant tumors is much less effective once cancer cells have invaded additional locations, many of which are undetectable.

While advances in early detection have improved the prognosis of many cancers, prostate, lung, and breast cancers are still among the most commonly diagnosed and the most fatal cancers. For example, among both men and women, lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer-related death, which is believed to be due to the lack of early detection methods. By the time of diagnosis, only approximately 16% of lung cancer patients have tumors that are still in an early stage. For these patients, the five-year survival rate is 50% versus 15% when more advanced tumors are also included. If breast cancer is caught and treated at its earliest stages, patients have five-year survival rates between 81% and 100%. However, if the cancer progresses to Stage IV before it is diagnosed, a patient’s likelihood of survival at five years is only 20%.

Cancer Markers

Cancer markers are a group of proteins, hormones, enzymes, receptors and other cellular products that are over expressed (produced in higher than normal amounts) by malignant cells. Cancer markers are usually normal cellular constituents that are present at very low levels in the blood of healthy persons. If the substance in question is produced by the cancer, its levels will be increased in blood or other body fluids or in the tissue of origin.

Detecting a cancer marker in higher-than-normal amounts in the body may signify the presence of a malignancy. For some indications, the expressed amount of a particular marker can also signal the disease’s stage (i.e., how far the cancer has progressed). For instance, a common cancer marker for liver cancer, alpha-fetoprotein (“AFP”), not only signals the potential presence of liver cancer, but can also indicate the size of the tumor. However, it is important to note that AFP’s sensitivity as a cancer marker is only approximately 60%, meaning that roughly 40% of patients with liver cancer do not have an elevated AFP. (In oncology, sensitivity is the ability of a test to detect cancer. If all cancer patients test positive for having cancer with a particular test, the test’s sensitivity would be 100%. Specificity measures how well the test detects healthy individuals, i.e., whether it produces false positives, that is, falsely identifies patients as having cancer when they do not. If a test does not return any false positives, it has 100% specificity.)

After testing for a cancer marker, further identifying the cells that express the marker may enable a definitive diagnosis. Oncologists measure marker levels to assess a patient’s response to treatment, evaluate appropriate future treatments, and check for signs that the cancer may be recurring. If, after treatment, marker levels have decreased from the level at diagnosis, it may indicate that the cancer is responding favorably to the treatment. Conversely, if marker levels rise, the oncologist may consider an alternative therapy option, as the tumor is probably not responding to treatment. Depending upon the patient and the cancer, these follow-up tests may be continued for life, occurring as frequently as every two to three months.

Limitations of Current Cancer Markers

We believe that validation of new cancer markers is one of the most important goals in cancer research. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) emphasized the need for finding new markers for prostate cancer as well as identifying markers for hard-to-detect cancers, such as those in the ovary and pancreas. In addition, the NCI specifically listed validating cancer markers for disease prognosis, metastasis, treatment response, and progression as one of its future strategies. The continuing need for enhanced cancer diagnostic markers is partly due to the limitations of current markers.

Although there has been significant historical research into cancer diagnostics, we believe that few cancer markers have been accepted into clinical use. Moreover, markers are not used today as the sole method to diagnose cancer due to several factors that limit the capabilities of current cancer markers to accurately diagnose the disease. These limitations have prevented cancer marker tests from functioning as wholly effective screens for many cancers. We believe that a cancer marker that is expressed on all cancer cells regardless of type would be an effective screening tool.
 
  
Currently available markers are not 100% specific to a particular type of cancer, indicating that other non-cancerous conditions can also cause an increase in certain cancer markers. For example, elevated levels of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a marker for prostate cancer, do not always signal a malignant condition. The NCI reports that only 25% to 35% of men that express higher-than-normal amounts of PSA in the blood actually have prostate cancer. The remaining 65% to 75% of men have benign prostate conditions, such as inflammation, which also cause an increase in PSA levels.

If the minimum PSA value is increased (where men would have to show even higher levels of the marker in order to enable detection by a PSA test), the PSA could be considered to be more accurate, as more men will likely be correctly identified as having prostate cancer and not a benign condition. However, for many of these men, waiting for their PSA levels to
 
  
increase to an amount detectable by a more stringent test also prevents early detection of the prostate cancer. If the PSA cut-off value is increased, over 50% of men may not be diagnosed with prostate cancer until after their tumor has spread beyond the prostate gland, significantly decreasing the likelihood of successful treatment. As a result, there is still an unmet need for a clinically effective diagnostic technique for the early detection of prostate cancer.
 
  
Many markers are also restricted to only certain cancers. For example, the PSA test can help detect prostate cancer, but would not be used to screen for breast cancer.
 
  
The same marker is not always expressed on every patient’s cancer even if it is related to the same organ. For instance, Genentech’s cancer drug, Herceptin, treats metastatic breast cancer that is positive for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). However, HER2 over-expression occurs in only approximately 25% of women with breast cancer.
 
  
The detection of “normal” levels of a cancer marker can occasionally be ambiguous. For some cancer markers (such as CA-125, which is more prevalent in ovarian cancer cells than in other cells), even individuals without the cancer can demonstrate varying levels of the marker. In some cases, CA- 125 expression depends on age and gender, with women younger than 50 having higher amounts of this protein in their bodies than women over 50 or men. Like other markers, benign conditions, including infections and endometriosis, can also cause elevated CA-125 levels. As a result, the classification of a normal value is difficult. MedlinePlus, a service of the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health (NIH), reports that perceived normal CA-125 levels vary depending on which laboratory is administering the test. Consequently, CA-125 tests are more effectively used to monitor the progression of ovarian cancer and the patient’s response to treatment, rather than to diagnose the cancer in an otherwise healthy individual.

In addition, in the early stages of cancer, many patients express relatively low levels of known cancer markers, evading detection by current cancer marker tests. As a result, even widespread markers—such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), which can be found in patients with a variety of cancers—are not effective at detecting occult (hidden) cancers. The CEA assay, discovered by Dr. Phil Gold, a member of our board of directors, was one of the first successful blood tests to enter general clinical use.

Types of Cancer Testing

Cancer testing encompasses a wide variety of products and technologies, including the following: (1) assays for cancer markers; (2) imaging, such as mammography (a breast X-ray to detect tumors); (3) clinical chemistry assays that detect changes in normal physiological parameters; and (4) cytological and histological tests. Each of these procedures is used for at least one of three tasks—screening, diagnosis/monitoring, or imaging—each of which is briefly described below.

Screening. Cancer screening entails performing regular tests on people who have no symptoms. Mammograms, Papanicolaou (Pap) smears, and PSA tests are all examples of cancer screens. These tests can reveal hidden diseases, but need further corroboration, such as a tissue biopsy, to provide a final diagnosis. Most cancer marker tests do not have high enough measures of sensitivity or specificity to be considered useful as a cancer screen. Even the PSA test, which is routinely used to screen men for prostate cancer, is still debated as to its usefulness in older males.

Diagnosis/Monitoring. Cancer markers are primarily used for diagnostic and monitoring purposes. While typically markers alone are not used to diagnose a disease, they do help determine if cancer is likely. They also help monitor the cancer’s progression, response to treatment, and potential for recurrence. To test for a marker, a sample of the patient’s tissue, blood or other body fluid is sent to a laboratory where the detection of the marker is determined.

Imaging. In healthcare, imaging is the process by which physicians obtain pictures of the body’s interior. Oncologists use imaging as a noninvasive method to help see tumors and detect occult metastatic cancer. Special dyes are often administered to enable organs to show up better on film. We believe that there are two primary unmet needs in imaging at present: (1) the existence of a marker test that can detect cancerous cells before the disease clinically manifests itself; and (2) the presence of a marker to identify secondary cancer after the primary treatment has begun.

Cancer testing is dominated by serum-based cancer markers, including CEA, PSA, CA-125, bladder tumor antigen (BTA), and TruQuant BR (for monitoring breast cancer). In 2003, worldwide sales of these serum assays were approximately $860 million. We estimate that there are over 100 million serum screening tests performed each year. However, most of the assays are specific to a particular cancer and suffer from poor sensitivity and specificity. As an example, assay sales for CEA, a relatively insensitive assay for colorectal cancer, are estimated to be over $300 million annually. In The Nation’s Investment in Cancer Research: A Plan and Budget Proposal for Fiscal Year 2008, the NCI emphasized the need for improved markers for prostate cancer as well as the development of more markers for hard-to-detect cancers. In addition, the NCI specifically listed validating cancer markers for disease prognosis, metastasis, treatment response, and progression as one of its future strategies.

Reasons for Growth of Cancer Diagnostics

The following factors may affect the size and growth of the worldwide cancer diagnostic market:

Demographic shifts due to an aging population. The United Nations has documented a rapidly aging population worldwide. In developed countries, the number of individuals over 60 years old exceeded the number of children under 15 years old for the first time in 1998. While risk factors for cancer include tobacco and alcohol use, diet, and sun exposure, one of the most significant factors is age. For example, more than 65% of all prostate cancers occur in men over the age of 65, and overall, approximately 77% of all cancers are diagnosed in individuals over the age of 55.

Increased focus on early detection and diagnostics. According to the NCI, 85% of cancer patients are treated in community-based, private practice oncology settings. Accordingly, global expansion of cancer marker technologies may be fueled by an increased marketing of new diagnostic tests to physicians. In addition, as a growing number of people are considered to be at high risk for developing cancer, diagnostic tests may also be administered more frequently.

Reimbursement, third-party payers and financing for companies developing diagnostics. In the United States, the costs of a variety of medical procedures, including diagnostic laboratory tests, are covered by both federal and private insurance plans. We believe the reimbursement policies of healthcare providers will drive increased usage of cancer marker tests and that reimbursement amounts will reflect the usefulness of the tests—the more accurate the test, the higher the reimbursement amount. On that basis, a RECAF-based test, which has broad applicability and is highly accurate, should command a relatively high reimbursement amount. Due to cost containment practices of managed care organizations as well as federal healthcare programs, certain testing technologies may be used more selectively by medical providers. We estimate that reducing healthcare expenses could lead to the reduction or the elimination of cancer markers with low associated sensitivities and specificities. We want to market RECAF as a high value-added test with widespread utility and significant predictive value that will meet applicable cost containment guidelines.

Funding for basic and disease-related research.  The NIH invests over $31 billion annually in medical research, of which an estimated $7-8 billion was spent on cancer research.  The National Cancer Institute’s Budget alone for fiscal year 2012, already approved by President Obama, is for $5.2 million and additional resources are allocated to cancer research  Additionally, R&D spending is increasing in all regions of the world, with the total R&D spending by biotechnology companies in 2006 estimated at 1.023 trillion, up from $977 billion in 2005 and $922 billion in 2004.

An increased focus on lowering healthcare spending via improved diagnostic testing and patient monitoring that can reduce the costs of misdiagnosis. In 2010  U.S. healthcare expenditures totaled approximately $2.593 trillion, and are forecasted to reach $2.75 trillion in 2012. For 2010, healthcare accounted for 17.9% of the gross domestic product in the United States up from 13.8% in the year 2000. U.S. healthcare premiums increased by 131% between 1999 and 2009 or 13.9% per annum.  Many policy experts believe new technologies and the spread of existing ones account for a large portion of medical spending and its growth.

This growing utilization is attributable to new medical treatments, more intensive diagnostic testing (i.e., defensive medicine), an aging population, which requires more medical attention, and progressively unhealthy lifestyles.

As a result of rising costs, we believe that there is a demand for more cost-effective approaches to disease management, specifically for cancer, as well as for emphasis on screening and accurate diagnostic testing to facilitate early detection of potentially costly, severe afflictions. Likewise, a poll conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health in June 2009 found that 54.0% of respondents felt that high costs were one of the most important healthcare issues for the government to address. We also estimate that up to 20.0% of all diagnostic tests may eventually be performed in non-laboratory settings, such as by patients or non-medical professionals.

Our Technology

We believe that our RECAF technology offers an improved detection, diagnostic, and monitoring solution for patients with cancer.

The RECAF Cancer Marker

Based on our research, which has been confirmed by Abbott and jointly presented at an international cancer conference, RECAF appears to be a cancer marker for multiple types of cancer. Every type of cancerous tissue that we have tested has expressed RECAF. It is expressed on over 90% of cancer samples that we have studied thus far, including breast, lung, stomach, colon, ovarian and prostate cancer samples. To our knowledge, there is no other cancer marker in use that has the same universal presence with comparable sensitivity and specificity as RECAF. Since RECAF detects cancer earlier and more accurately with less false positives than other markers, we believe that RECAF could replace many currently available cancer markers that are targeted to only one type of cancer, as well as offer a useful diagnostic tool for cancers where there is not yet thought to be an effective marker, such a lung and breast cancer.

RECAF is a molecule that is present on cancer cells but is not detected in significant levels on healthy cells or benign tumor cells. This characteristic enables RECAF to more accurately detect cancer than many current tumor markers, as RECAF is less likely to report a false positive result.

However, since RECAF does not identify a specific type of cancer, a positive test would be followed up with further testing using other diagnostic tools to determine the location and type of cancer.

RECAF is a receptor for AFP (Alpha-fetoprotein), which is a marker for liver and testicular cancer that was discovered in 1963 by Dr. Garri Abelev, a member of our scientific advisory board. RECAF is present on the cell surface and binds and takes up circulating AFP. Both AFP and RECAF first emerge in the fetus, but disappear by birth. AFP binds small molecules, such as lipids, and transports them into fetal cells when taken up by the receptor for AFP. Once a fetal organ or tissue reaches its maturity, it no longer takes up AFP or expresses RECAF. After birth, RECAF is only known to exist in a cancerous state, where tissues re-express the ability to take up AFP via the RECAF receptor. The expression of RECAF is related to rapid tissue growth, which is characteristic of both cancer and fetal development. RECAF is classified as an oncofetal antigen due to its presence on both fetal tissues that incorporate AFP and on malignant tissues in later life.

We believe that RECAF has potential as a universal cancer marker for the following reasons:
 
  
Current serum markers are deficient in terms of sensitivity and specificity, creating a need for enhanced markers.

  
Current markers for breast and lung cancers (one of the most fatal cancers) are not very accurate and therefore not widely used. These types of cancers are among the best detected by RECAF.

  
Routine RECAF testing after cancer therapy may be able to detect recurrence earlier and more economically than other technologies in current use. We believe that having one cancer marker to monitor all patients is a great advantage for the clinical laboratory.

  
There is not yet a universal cancer marker. Oncologists use different tests for each cancer. Moreover, we believe only a few of the cancer markers used today are very useful. Our intent is to develop RECAF as a universal cancer marker, potentially capable of detecting many cancers with high sensitivity and specificity.

Product Pipeline

All of our product candidates are based on the RECAF technology. The RECAF molecule is expressed on the cell surface of cancer cells and, because tumors are highly vascularized, it is shed into the blood stream and other bodily fluids. As a result, we can detect the marker using blood, or serum, as the test sample. Since 2004, we have performed over 120,000 tests on more than 4,000 serum samples. Results of these studies have shown that our serum-based assay, Serum-RECAF, has between 80% and 90% sensitivity for a variety of cancers, with 95% specificity for lung, breast, prostate, stomach, and ovarian cancers among others. Moreover, these tests demonstrate that RECAF technology performs better than competing technologies at detecting prostate cancers and at discriminating between malignant and benign lesions.

RECAF technology detected 92% of cervical cancer with 95.7% specificity in a study involving 25 cervical cancer samples and 69 normal samples. In contrast, the Pap test, which is widely used to detect cervical abnormalities, has an estimated sensitivity for high-grade lesions of only 55% to 80%. Further, we compared 73 colon cancer samples to 352 normal samples and found that our RECAF blood test had a sensitivity of 74% with 95% specificity. When the specificity was improved to 100%, the test was still able to identify over 71% of the colon cancers. Data suggest an average sensitivity for RECAF of 90% across all cancers when the specificity is 95%.

Serum-RECAF can be effectively used to initially screen patients who present symptoms of cancer as well as to monitor patients for recurrence who have already been treated for cancer. We believe that our Serum-RECAF assay performs better than many current technologies at detecting prostate cancer as well as at discriminating between malignant and benign tumors. Accordingly, Serum-RECAF may have the potential to become a standardized blood test widely available in clinical laboratories due to its detection capabilities and ease of use. If successfully developed and submitted to the FDA for clearance, we believe that Serum-RECAF, used to monitor a patient’s progress following surgery, chemotherapy or other treatment, will be considered a Class II Medical Device, which is important in the pathway to regulatory approval. Future variations of this product could include the ability to test other body fluids, such as saliva, vaginal fluids, and urine, for RECAF.

RECAF Product Formats

There are three basic formats for RECAF technology: (i) automated testing in large clinical and hospital laboratories; (ii) non-automated, or manual, testing by clinicians in smaller laboratory settings and where expensive automated instrumentation is not available or not practical; and (iii) point-of- care (“POC”), rapid test formats for physicians’ offices, urgent care facilities, or the bedside. These formats may be used to detect cancer in patients and for veterinarian use.

Automated Format

Our initial business strategy was to license the automated testing format on a semi-exclusive basis to three licensees. We have granted two of the three semi-exclusive licenses for this testing format–one to Abbott and one to Inverness. Under the agreements with Abbott and Inverness, we are allowed to grant one more semi-exclusive license for the automated format.

In early 2007, we completed converting our blood based Serum-RECAF test to colorimetric format (“flash chemiluminescense”) to make it more practical for laboratory use required by our licensees and to improve sensitivity. This format improves detection of smaller, earlier stage tumors and magnifies the measured difference in RECAF serum values between cancer and normal patients. The test results found that RECAF had 80% to 90% sensitivity for a variety of cancers, with 95% specificity for lung, breast, stomach and ovarian cancers in particular.

Manual Format

We have developed prototype RECAF test kits and materials for small laboratories where automated instrumentation is not available or not practical. These manual formats have the same sensitivity and specificity as the formats that use automated instrumentation. We plan to finish development of these kits and to place them in a few laboratories in major metropolitan cities in China.  However, before laboratories in China can market and run the RECAF tests, the Chinese equivalent of the FDA must approve the use of the RECAF tests.
 
 
11

 
 
To initiate this, we have formed a wholly owned subsidiary in China. The subsidiary, named “Biocurex China Co., Ltd.” will be used to assemble, market, and distribute our RECAF tests in China. The critical reagents will be shipped from North America for quality control purposes. Our first market is Shanghai, where we are represented by a clinical oncologist who will collect the samples and administer the tests in-house. Once we are operational in Shanghai, we will expand to other large population centers in China such as Beijing and Tianjin. If the model is successful, we then plan to replicate it in other countries in Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe.

In the United States, once the FDA has approved the automated testing format, we will be able to apply for 510k approval for the manual testing format on an expedited basis.

Point-of-Care, Rapid Test

As another segment of our current strategy, we have developed a prototype blood-based POC rapid test for cancer detection or follow-up in physicians’ offices and urgent care facilities. This format may also be useful in third-world countries or areas with large rural populations where access to even small clinical laboratories is not available.

Our POC rapid test device will be similar to a common pregnancy test kit. The rapid test cartridge will contain a small strip that is coated with the indicator molecules to detect RECAF in a blood sample. These types of tests are used for a variety of applications in diagnostic medicine, and they can be efficiently developed from the prototype data that we currently have

We anticipate that our POC rapid test will require the development of a small, portable instrument to read the intensity of the colorimetric endpoint line in order to alleviate the variability of eye measurements. We will likely need to eliminate operator variability to be eligible for certain medical reimbursements.

When a patient enters a physician’s office with a specific symptom or concern where cancer is suspected, the physician could administer the rapid test to receive a preliminary indication as to the presence of elevated RECAF levels in the blood. We anticipate that such a cancer test could be used as easily and as routinely as a blood sugar or cholesterol reading is now used as part of a blood test. The more detailed Serum-RECAF laboratory test would be used to confirm the rapid test result as is common now for most of the rapid tests used in the infectious disease setting.

Recent Developments

In October 2010 we filed a new patent within the Patent Cooperation Treaty, which presently includes 142 countries. The subject of this patent is a synthetic peptide that recognizes RECAF™ and that can replace the antibodies used in our RECAF test. The synthetic peptide also allows for many other applications that cannot be performed with an antibody. Our patent application contains over 50 claims covering different applications and uses of this peptide.

An antibody is a biological reagent that requires production under sterile conditions in large volumes of cell culture medium. The antibodies then need to be extracted and purified from the medium. This process is expensive and delicate. The synthetic peptide will allow our to replace the antibodies in the RECAF test. A peptide is a short sequence of amino acids, much like a very small protein. Peptides are produced with an automated peptide synthesizer. A well known small peptide is aspartame, the synthetic sweetener used in Nutrasweet®.

To make a peptide in a laboratory, its amino acids sequence is entered into a computer and the rest of the process is automatically handled by special computer software.  Since the peptide is synthesized chemically rather than biologically, the batch-to-batch variability is drastically reduced and the cost reduction is significant. Being small molecules, peptides are also more stable than antibodies, resulting in longer shelf life and related issues.

The most important advantage of peptides over antibodies is their flexibility: Antibodies cannot be modified unless very expensive and complex molecular engineering processes are used. To change the specificity of an antibody, one has to develop a new one, which is a very labor intensive and unpredictable process. On the other hand, to modify a peptide, all that is required is to use a different amino acid sequence on the computer. This tremendous flexibility opens many possibilities for us, some of which are listed below:

1)  
Tailoring dog, cat and other animal RECAF tests for each species rather than relying, on the cross reactivity exhibited by anti-human RECAF antibodies against dog RECAF.

2)  
Tailor-tagging of the peptide for different uses such as cancer targeted therapy, imaging or blood diagnostic tests.

3)  
Attaching the peptide to liposomes for cancer targeting. Liposomes are artificially prepared vesicles that can be filled with anti-cancer drugs, Interference RNA or other compounds and delivered to cancer cells. Attaching the peptide to the surface of liposomes should increase the delivery to cancer cells since our peptide recognizes RECAF and RECAF is on the surface of cancer cells but not on healthy cells. Liposomes are used for delivery of a variety of formulations from medicine to cosmetics.

4)  
Incorporation of a DNA sequence that encodes the peptide into the DNA or RNA of a virus which would then express the peptide on its surface. Since the peptide recognizes RECAF which is on cancer cells but not on normal cells, the virus would only infect and kill the cancer cells thus becoming an oncolytic virus.

In October 2010 we entered into a non-exclusive distribution agreement with VetRed B.V. from Naarden, the Netherlands. VetRed, a private company under Dutch law, will represent our wholly owned subsidiary OncoPet Diagnostics to distribute our OncoPet RECAF™ cancer test for dogs in Europe.

Through a network of its own companies, agents and distributors, VetRed will market our OncoPet’s RECAF™ test to the European Union member states. Samples will be collected and grouped prior to their dispatch to our laboratories Canada. Europe is second in the world for its number of cats and dogs, according to a recent survey—there are approximately 78 million dogs and 94 million cats in Europe. The United States and Canada have the largest dog and cat population, with an estimated 52 million dogs and 66 million cats.

VetRed made an entrance in the veterinary diagnostic market in 2009 with the introduction of the Pandora® Slide Stainer, a tabletop fully automated unit, which stains in fully reproducible samples prior to their evaluation under the microscope. VetRed also markets chromogenic media for rapid determination of fungi and bacteria.
 
Currently, our wholly owned subsidiary, OncoPet(TM) Diagnostics, Inc., has entered into a further two non-exclusive distribution agreements with two prominent US veterinary suppliers for the distribution of the OncoPet Sample Collection Kit for canine cancer diagnosis.
 
Per the non-exclusive distribution agreement, the suppliers will purchase vouchers for tests to be carried out in our facilities.  The distributor then sells the vouchers to veterinarians, veterinary practices, veterinary hospitals and others within the United States and territories of the U.S. including Puerto Rico, Guam as well as others.  The voucher includes a sample collection kit which the veterinarian will use to process the blood and ship the serum to our laboratory for testing.  OncoPet then emails the results directly to the veterinarian.
 
License Agreements

We have licensed aspects of our RECAF technology on a semi-exclusive and on a non-exclusive basis to Abbott, a worldwide leader in diagnostics, and Inverness, a global supplier of in vitro diagnostic products.

Abbott License

In March 2005, we entered into a worldwide, semi-exclusive licensing agreement with Abbott to commercialize Serum-RECAF. Manual and POC RECAF test formats are licensed on a non-exclusive basis. Thus, we may commercialize and license manual tests to as many licensees as we deem appropriate. Under the license agreement, as amended, Abbott has the right, but not the obligation, to commercialize or perform further research and development on the RECAF technology. Abbott paid us an upfront licensing fee of $200,000 and will pay us royalties on any RECAF products it sells during the term of the license. In April 2008, Abbott and we amended the license agreement. The amendment relieved Abbott of future obligations to perform further research and development with respect to the RECAF technology as well as the obligation to pay annual minimum royalties. At any time, at its option, Abbott may resume research and development work and commercialize products incorporating the RECAF technology in accordance with the license agreement. In consideration for this modification, we will receive a more favorable royalty rate on any RECAF products that may be sold by Abbott. We have the right to terminate the license at any time, if following notice from us, Abbott and we do not agree within 90 days to new due diligence obligations for the commercialization of any products using the RECAF technology. Since this agreement was amended, Abbott has not conducted any research and development regarding RECAF technology or, to our knowledge, taken any other steps toward commercializing our technology. Finally, Abbott has the right to grant sublicenses to third parties.

Inverness License

In December 2007, we entered into a second semi-exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement for our Serum-RECAF technology. This agreement allows Inverness to commercialize products using the Serum-RECAF technology in exchange for paying an upfront fee and periodic royalty payments. In addition, Inverness is responsible for obtaining FDA approvals, and managing manufacturing, marketing, and distribution for clinical laboratory testing. The manual and POC rapid tests, as well as other applications of RECAF, are licensed on a non-exclusive basis. Inverness paid us a $1 million up-front fee for RECAF technology and material and assistance that would enable it to produce RECAF material on its own. Inverness has been conducting research and development on our technology and may have successfully adapted our technology to their diagnostic platform. The agreement with Inverness provides for periodic exchanges of information between the parties. Our policy is to tell them as much as we can on the technical side. Inverness, on the other hand, has been reluctant to share with us their intentions or progress on their general business strategy including manufacturing, commercialization, regulatory approval and marketing. Inverness has advised us of their intention to implement the RECAF test in a particular format (called Triage), which is not based on classic and widely known assay formats but rather on their proprietary platform. We believe their reluctance is caused in large part on their concern to protect the intellectual property relating to their proprietary diagnostic platform. Our last communication with Inverness took place in June 2009 and, at the time, they indicated that our assay was working in their facilities and generating results consistent with ours. However, they did not share those results with us or indicate what diagnostic platform they used. Inverness has also informed us that they had become self-sufficient and independent in generating the critical reagents necessary to produce the test. We do not know what Inverness intends to do next. If they have been successful in adapting our technology to their diagnostic platform, the logical next step for them would be to initiate clinical trials for the purpose of obtaining regulatory approvals, whether in the United States or elsewhere, but we have not had been able to confirm whether that is the case. Our license agreement with Inverness does not provide for any development or product milestones. Under the license agreement, the annual minimum royalty of $150,000 began to accrue on December 4, 2009 and will continue until December 4 following the first commercial sale by Inverness of a product using RECAF technology to a third party. Thereafter, for the balance of the annual minimum royalty term, which ends on the later of the expiration of all the RECAF patents or when Inverness ceases to manufacture and distribute any products based on RECAF technology, Inverness is obligated to pay a higher minimum royalty. The Inverness license agreement does not provide when or how the annual minimum will be paid. Presumably, that will be determined based on subsequent discussions with Inverness.

Additional Licensing Opportunities

Under the license agreements with Abbott and Inverness we are free to grant one additional semi-exclusive license regarding Serum-RECAF and pursue unlimited licensing opportunities with respect to all other applications of our RECAF technology and test formats, including manual and POC rapid tests and veterinary applications. Further, our RECAF technology has additional applications that could be licensed, including imaging functions and therapeutic uses. Ultimately, we seek to license out specific aspects of our technology, striving to achieve a significant market share by selecting licensees that can support this goal. We believe that this licensing strategy will be the most effective way to expand our market share.

Business Strategy

Our RECAF technology has possibilities in a wide variety of applications in the fields of human and veterinary medicine. Our strategy is to continue to focus on obtaining non-exclusive licensing agreements for various application of RECAF technology while developing other applications ourselves.  Specifically, we intend to pursue the following:

  
grant one additional semi-exclusive license for testing blood samples using automated testing equipment;

  
commercialize veterinary applications of RECAF testing technology not requiring regulatory approvals;

  
finish developing a POC rapid format test for the doctor’s office and bedside use;

  
conduct clinical trials and seek FDA clearance for marketing of our RECAF tests; and

  
commercialize manual testing formats in China.
 
  
We cannot assure you that we can successfully achieve any of these objectives.

Our future objectives may change due to a number of factors, including:

  
the amount of capital we are able to raise;
 
  
our ability to accomplish the objectives listed above;
 
  
our determination that a market does not exist for our products or tests;
 
  
new estimates of the time and capital required to accomplish an objective are substantially greater than our original estimates.
 
  
our assessment of potentially faster ways to begin generating revenue using our RECAF technology; and

We have been attempting to earn revenue from our RECAF technology since 2001. We have abandoned earlier products and tests incorporating our RECAF technology since we determined that a market did not exist for these products and tests.

Licensing

To date our primary business strategy has been to license our Serum-RECAF technology under semi-exclusive limited license agreements. With this strategy, instead of having to allocate all of our funding in an attempt to commercialize one product, we select licensees that have strategic advantages over us when it comes to commercialization (e.g., our licenses with Abbott and Inverness). As part of this strategy, we provide all the assistance that we can to our licensees; however, the licensees are responsible for obtaining regulatory approvals and bringing the products to market. Under our existing semi-exclusive licenses with Abbott and Inverness, we are allowed to enter into one additional semi-exclusive license for Serum-RECAF. These licenses only cover the automated testing format for Serum-RECAF in a clinical and hospital laboratory settings. They cover the use of Serum-RECAF in connection with other test formats and other applications of our technology on a non-exclusive basis.

Market distribution channels for a diagnostic test kit typically entail accessing the automated diagnostic platforms of one or more of the larger diagnostic companies, such as Abbott, F. Hoffmann-La Roche or Bayer AG. These companies provide automated diagnostic instruments that are capable of processing a variety of laboratory tests. Some instruments can process 1,200 clinical chemistry and 200 immunoassay tests each hour. Through licensing, we seek to place our cancer assays, such as Serum-RECAF, on the instrument menu of these diagnostic platforms.

Point-of Care Rapid Tests

We anticipate that a POC rapid cancer test could be used in the future as easily and as routinely as a blood sugar or cholesterol reading is now part of a blood test. When a patient enters a physician’s office with a specific symptom or concern where cancer is suspected, the physician could administer the rapid test to receive a preliminary indication as to the presence of elevated RECAF levels in the blood. The more detailed Serum-RECAF laboratory test would be used to confirm the rapid test result as is common now for most of the rapid tests used in the infectious disease setting.

In September 2007, we presented preliminary results with our prototype rapid test to an international cancer congress. Data indicated solid discrimination between cancer and healthy cells and correlated with results from our Serum-RECAF. With the N.N. Blokhin Cancer Research Center in Moscow, Russia, we studied RECAF as a rapid test for cancer detection. Results found that RECAF could detect 80.4% of ovarian cancers in Stages I to III with an 88% specificity. This study tested 64 normal, non-cancerous samples and 51 ovarian cancer serum samples, which included 25 Stage I or II cancers and 26 Stage III cancers. We believe that these results signify a potential breakthrough that could simplify cancer detection. When applied to early stage ovarian cancer, our prototype POC demonstrated better performance than a CA-125 blood test, a tumor marker often found in higher-than-normal amounts in the blood of women with ovarian cancer.

We believe that the POC tests will not cannibalize the clinical laboratory markets since POC tests are routinely confirmed by the slightly more accurate clinical laboratory tests. We believe that the widespread use of POC RECAF tests will actually promote the use of the clinical laboratory RECAF tests.

We estimate that there are approximately 250,000 physicians in the United States who would use these POC tests. One test per doctor per week would yield 13 million rapid tests per year. We expect final development, clinical testing, FDA registration and Medicare approval to take approximately 18 months. We may license this test for distribution, contract with a distribution network or use a contract sales force for marketing and sales of this test.

Veterinary Applications

Basic research shows that RECAF is a highly conserved (common and essentially identical) molecule in humans and animals. We confirmed in our laboratory with samples provided from three different sources that our RECAF test detects malignancy in dogs and cats. The test, which we call Pet- RECAF, correctly detected 85% of the cancers at the standard specificity value of 95%. These figures are consistent with those obtained on human patients.

Initially our focus will be directed to dogs and cats. We believe we can begin marketing this application quickly because it does not require government or regulatory approvals and we have completed the developmental testing. We will market this application under a separate brand name. We plan to pursue a dual-channel revenue generation strategy. In some markets we will license our technology to clinical labs who will conduct the testing and in other markets PBRC will do the testing in our own contract laboratory. Our POC rapid test is also being developed for the veterinary market and may be available for commercialization before it is available for human use. We will market our product directly to end users, such as veterinarians and animal protection societies, and through distributors.

Cancer in Household Pets

Cancer is the number one cause of death among dogs and cats in the United States, Europe, and Japan. Recent studies have shown that more than 50% of all dogs ultimately die of cancer, and some breeds, like golden retrievers and boxers, have cancer rates that are even higher. However, cancer is also the most curable of all chronic diseases in pets. To help improve detection, specialists encourage veterinarians to include cancer screenings in their wellness exams for pets of all ages.

Expenditures on Household Pets and Market Size

There are approximately 75 million household dogs in the United States and on average dog owners spend $219 on veterinary visits annually. There are approximately 88 million household cats in the United States and their owners spend an average of $175 a year on routine veterinary visits. Dog- owning households that spent $1,000 or more in a year jumped from 2.2 percent in 1996 to 8.4% in 2006. Dogs averaged 1.5 visits to the veterinarian during 2006, and cats averaged 0.7 visits to the vet in the same year.

An interesting statistic that supports the growth in dog and cat populations is that Western European cat and dog food sales were US$14.47 billion in 2007, up from US$10.16 billion in 2002. Growth was projected at 7.6% per annum, so by extrapolation the 2012 is estimated to be US$15.57 billion.

We have studied the market in British Columbia and, based on our findings, we believe that the potential market for testing dogs and cats in British Columbia may be $5.0 million per year. We found that in British Columbia at least 120,000 routine blood-screening tests are carried out every year in dogs and cats, at a cost of $35-$40 per test to the veterinarian. This does not include tests conducted by veterinary hospitals that have their own in-house laboratories. We believe that the addition of a screening test for cancer for $50 is reasonable to both owners and veterinarians and may be incorporated in routine annual checkups. In addition to screening, animals already diagnosed and treated for cancer can be monitored for the disease with the Pet-RECAF test. We estimate that each animal diagnosed with cancer could be tested 3-4 times over its lifespan.

Market Strategy

Our marketing strategy for our Pet-RECAF test is based on the following assumptions:
 
  
There is no need for regulatory approval with respect to our Pet-RECAF product and, therefore, we can begin marketing this product immediately.

  
The costs involved to commercialize Pet-RECAF are manageable.

We plan to begin in British Columbia where we can commercialize the application ourselves and then expand into other markets as we establish ourselves. In essence, the local market becomes a testing ground to trim and assess the logistics related to this enterprise. Blotted blood samples collected by veterinarians will be shipped to PBRC for testing. Our marketing efforts will target both veterinarians, who have to recommend Pet-RECAF to the pet owners, and the pet owners themselves. For marketing purposes, we have formed a wholly owned subsidiary, OncoPet Diagnostics, Inc., and have reserved the Internet domains: OncoPet.net, OncoPet.com, OncoPetDiagnostics.com and OncoPetDiagnostics.net.

Sales and Marketing
 
We do not plan to build our own sales force for any of our RECAF formats for human use. Sales and marketing for our automated laboratory testing format will be done primarily by our licensees. Manual laboratory test kits and materials will be marketed by our partner laboratories. Once we have achieved FDA clearance in the United States for our POC rapid test, we plan to contract with medical device distributors and/or a contract sales force for marketing and sales.
 
Our RECAF tests for the veterinarian market will be marketed initially by us and by distributors of veterinarian products. Since October 2010 we have entered into agreements with three veterinary product distributors for the marketing of tests in the United States, Europe and Taiwan. The distributors for the U.S. and Taiwan markets will purchase vouchers for tests to be carried out in our facilities.  The distributors will then sell the vouchers to veterinarians, veterinary practices, veterinary hospitals and others within their territories.  The voucher includes a sample collection kit which the veterinarian will use to process the blood and ship the serum to our laboratory for testing.  We will then email the results directly to the veterinarian. The distributor for Europe will purchase RECAF test kits from us and will perform the tests at the distributor’s facility in the Netherlands.

Suppliers and Manufacturing/Production

For the Serum-RECAF products licensed on a semi-exclusive basis, our licensees are responsible for manufacturing. We plan to contract with OEMs for all of the products that are not covered by our license agreements.

Research and Development

Our research and development efforts are all related to improving our RECAF technology for detection, diagnosis and follow-up of cancer. We continually focus on improving our various RECAF test formats leading to filing of additional patents to protect our technology. Since the basic research on our RECAF cancer marker is complete, most of our continuing work will be in the development area rather than in research. The clinical data from our studies, which have been ongoing since 2004, and the validation from independent data from our licensees, Abbott and Inverness, support our contention that we are in the final development stages rather than at the research stage.

Patents

Our patents, currently registered in over 20 countries, cover over 40 claims and relate to methods for diagnosis and treatment of cancer using the RECAF cancer marker. Our original U.S. patent expires in 2014 and our patents in Australia, Russia and China expire in 2015. Our U.S. patent (“Detection of cancer using antibodies to the AFP receptor”) includes 17 claims and protects technologies using Serum-RECAF kits. The patent also entails in vitro applications for diagnosis, screening, and follow-up of cancer and leukemia. At present, we are working toward the submission of additional patent applications related to RECAF that potentially could provide us with protection for an additional 20 years.

In March 2008, the European Patent Office granted our patent claims for cancer diagnostic serum tests based on the RECAF marker. These patents will also expire in 2015. This development is particularly beneficial as granted patent claims can generate a higher royalty than pending claims per our existing license agreements. In addition, we believe that the European healthcare and medical insurance systems are more familiar and supportive of cancer markers than are other locales. As a result, we anticipate that regulatory approval for diagnostic tests in Europe could be easier and faster than in the United States.

In October 2010 we filed a new patent within the Patent Cooperation Treaty, which presently includes 142 countries. The subject of this patent is a synthetic peptide that recognizes RECAF™ and that can replace the antibodies used in our RECAF test. The synthetic peptide also allows for many other applications that cannot be performed with an antibody. Our patent application contains multiple claims covering different applications and uses of this peptide.

An antibody is a biological reagent that requires production under sterile conditions in large volumes of cell culture medium. The antibodies then need to be extracted and purified from the medium. This process is expensive and delicate. The synthetic peptide will allow our to replace the antibodies in the RECAF test. A peptide is a short sequence of amino acids, much like a very small protein. Peptides are produced with an automated peptide synthesizer. A well known small peptide is aspartame, the synthetic sweetener used in Nutrasweet®.

Due to the complexity of RECAF technology, we believe that our proprietary know-how for developing the technology and working with the RECAF family of molecules is critical and extends beyond patented information. Accordingly, we include know-how in our licensing packages in order to obtain royalties in countries where we do not have patent protection.

We have granted a security interest in all of our assets, including our patents and other intangible property, to the holders of our amended secured convertible notes as security for the repayment of those notes.

Competition

Given the nature of our product and the fact that it works well in combination with existing cancer markers, it is difficult to separate competitors from potential partners/clients/licensees.

We have found that we can combine RECAF with a second marker (e.g., CEA for colorectal cancer samples, PSA for prostate cancer samples and CA125 for ovarian samples), thus increasing the overall performance. For example, combining CEA with RECAF results in 91% sensitivity and 100% specificity, which is extremely important for screening purposes. From a marketing point of view, the possibility of combining existing and widely used tests with ours offers obvious advantages in terms of acceptance, market penetration time and pricing. The latter is of particular interest for licensees who are already commercializing other markers because the enhanced performance allows them to increase the price of the other marker, which is usually low due to competition and lack of patent protection. Under our existing semi-exclusive license agreements with Abbott and Inverness, we receive, as a royalty, a portion of the additional price on any other marker sold in conjunction with RECAF.

Our potential competitors include large pharmaceutical and medical device companies who develop, market, and sell diagnostic products such as cancer detection kits, instruments and reagents used in clinical laboratories to measure serum cancer markers. Such companies include F. Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., Dako A/S, DIANON Systems (an affiliate of Lab Corp. of America Holdings), Miraculins Inc. and Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc. (an affiliate of Johnson & Johnson Co.). In addition, potential competition may come from smaller companies, research facilities and government-funded organizations that seek to discover improved cancer markers or that are developing new screening and diagnostic tests and tools for patients and animals. To our knowledge, no existing cancer markers currently in use can detect the range of cancers that can be detected by RECAF with similar sensitivity and specificity.  Potential competitors in the veterinary market include Idexx and Abaxis but they are also potential licensees.

At this point in time, we believe that our competitive position in the cancer detection market is strong for a number of reasons including the following:
 
  
Inherent Advantages of the RECAF marker. As previously discussed, the RECAF marker has several advantages over all other cancer markers known to us, including its ability (i) to detect all of the major cancers and likely the less ubiquitous ones as well, (ii) to detect them in early stages, where 80-90% can be cured and (iii) to function as a diagnostic and follow-up tool. In addition, and based upon studies we have conducted, we believe that for certain types of cancer, its serum-based screening assays is more accurate than the screening assays of our competitors.

  
Strategic relationships. Our license agreements with Abbott and Inverness provide us with access to major testing laboratories. In addition, Abbot and Inverness have agreed to bear the cost of obtaining FDA approval for our serum-detection technology and, once obtained, will market our testing technology to laboratories, healthcare providers and consumers. At the same time, our license agreements with Abbot and Inverness give us the flexibility to exploit other applications of the technology.

  
Funding. While many of our existing and potential competitors are large pharmaceutical companies with large research and development budgets and government-funded research facilities, the large capital investment required to identify and prove the efficacy of a cancer marker may act as a deterrent. On the other hand, most of the research into verifying the RECAF marker has been completed.

Government Regulation

Drugs, pharmaceutical products, medical devices and other related products are regulated in the United States under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Public Health Service Act, and the laws of certain states. The FDA exercises significant regulatory control over the clinical investigation, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical and biological products.

Medical device regulation is based on classification of the device into three classes, I, II or III. Class III medical devices are regulated much like drugs, whereas Class I and II devices have less stringent data requirements than drugs and do not require the rigorous clinical trials that the FDA requires for drugs. Products submitted to the FDA for clearance as medical devices can refer to the safety and effectiveness data of medical devices which perform similar functions as other products and which the FDA has already cleared. As long as a medical device submitted to the FDA has the same clinical use as a medical device previously cleared by the FDA, the medical device submitted will normally receive FDA clearance provided data proving substantial equivalence to the other approved medical devices and verification of claims is provided to the FDA.

This type of FDA submission is referred to as a 510k submission and is initially handled by the FDA within a 90-day timeframe but can be longer if additional information is required. Based upon our review of the FDA’s classification of other cancer markers, we are of the opinion that our RECAF tests used to monitor a patient’s progress after surgery, chemotherapy or other treatment, will be classified as Class II medical devices.  If the FDA classifies our RECAF tests as Class III medical devices, then a pre market approval (PMA) would be required which typically requires more extensive clinical data . FDA reviews PMA submissions in a 180-day timeline. If there are unaddressed scientific issues, the FDA review scientists can ask for additional information and put the submission temporarily on hold. If a product is a first of a kind, or if it presents unusual issues of safety and effectiveness, it is generally reviewed before it is approved by an advisory panel of outside experts. Approval of a PMA requires review of the manufacturing processes, an inspection of the manufacturing facility, a monitoring audit of clinical data sites, as well as comprehensive review of the premarket data. The review process for a Class III medical device can take up to 12 months, and in some cases longer.

In addition to regulations in the U.S., we may be subject to a variety of foreign regulations governing clinical trials and commercial sales and distribution of our products outside of the U.S. Whether or not we obtain FDA approval for a product, we must obtain approval of a product by the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries before we can commence clinical trials or marketing of the product in those countries. The approval process varies from country to country, and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA approval. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary greatly from country to country.

Under our existing license agreements, the licensees are responsible for obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals in the countries where they intent to market our products. However, since our licensees have not yet sought FDA clearance for our products, we plan to conduct clinical trials, if necessary, and seek FDA approval on our own for marketing our RECAF tests.
 
 
23

 

We cannot assure you that we, or any of our licensees, will be successful in obtaining clearances or approvals from any regulatory authority with respect to our serum screening assay. The lack of regulatory approval for our products will prevent the sale of these products. Delays in obtaining regulatory approval or the failure to obtain regulatory approval in one or more countries will have a material adverse impact on our operations.

With respect to our Pet-RECAF test, devices for infectious disease currently require U.S. Department of Agriculture approval whereas devices for cancer detection currently do not.  Cancer tests run in our laboratory, or in clinical laboratories licensed by us, do not require USDA or Canadian approval as a service, as opposed to a device is being marketed. Our Pet-RECAF test, as well as the marketing of this test, does not require FDA approval in the Unites States, Canada or China.

As of March 31, 2012 we had 184,617,814 outstanding shares of common stock.  The following table lists additional shares of our common stock which may be issued as the result of payment of note principal or interest with shares of our common stock or as the result of the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or the conversion of notes:
 
    Number of     Note  
    Shares     Reference

A.           In June 2007 we sold convertible notes, plus warrants, to private investors for $3,000,000.  The notes are due and payable on December 31, 2012 and are secured by substantially all of our assets.  At the holder’s option the notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.13.  Due to principal payments and conversions, the outstanding principal balance of the notes as of December 31, 2011 was $544,460.
 
 
26

 

The warrants were subsequently sold to Warrant Strategies Fund, LLC.

The warrants allow the holder to purchase up to 3,500,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.135 per share at any time prior to June 29, 2012.

In the event the closing price of our common stock is $1.20 or greater for ten consecutive trading days, the holders will be required to exercise the 3,500,000 warrants.  Following the exercise of the warrants, we will issue to the holders new warrants, which will entitle the holders to purchase 1,750,000 shares of our common stock.  The new warrants will be exercisable at a price of $1.20 per share at any time prior to the later of June 25, 2012 or three years from the date the new warrants are issued.

At our election and under certain conditions, we may use shares of our common stock to make interest or principal payments on the notes.  The actual number of shares which may be issued as payment of interest or principal may increase if the price of our common stock is below the then applicable conversion price of the notes.

To the extent we use our shares to make principal payments on the notes, the number of shares which may be issued upon the conversion of the notes may be less due to the reduction in the outstanding principal balance of the notes.

The actual number of shares which will ultimately be issued upon the payment or conversion of the notes and the exercise of the warrants (if any) will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the price at which we sell any additional shares of our common stock prior to the date the notes are paid or converted or the date the warrants are exercised or expire.

B.           Pursuant to the terms of a consulting agreement with a sales agent, we issued the sales agent warrants to purchase 937,500 shares of our common stock as consideration for services the sales agent provided in connection with the sale of our notes and warrants.  Warrants to purchase 187,500 of the 937,500 shares are exercisable at a price of $0.01 per share and warrants to purchase the remaining 750,000 shares are exercisable at a price of $0.60 per share.  These warrants expire on June 30, 2012.  The sales agent subsequently assigned 234,375 warrants each to two of its employees.

C.           Options are exercisable at a price of $0.001 per share and expire on various prior to March 2014.

D.           Warrants in this category were not granted pursuant to our Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan.  The warrants are exercisable at prices between $0.05 and $0.12 per share and expire on various dates prior to August 2014.

E.    During 2003 we sold convertible notes in the principal amount of $529,813 to six private investors.  As of January 31, 2012, all notes, with the exception of one note in the principal amount of $33,000, had either been repaid or converted into shares of our common stock.  For every share issued upon conversion, the note holders received warrants to purchase one share of our common stock.  The warrants are exercisable at prices between $0.05 and $0.176 per share and expire in 2014.  As of January 31, 2012, warrants to purchase 2,204,730 shares remained outstanding.  The remaining note, which bears interest at 5% per year, can be converted at any time into 211,768 shares of our common stock.  If this note is converted, the note holder will receive warrants to purchase 211,768 shares of our common stock.  These warrants, if issued, will be exercisable at a price of $0.17 per share and will expire in five years after their issuance. 

F.    In January 2010 we sold 90,459,600 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.0714 per share in a public offering.  For each share sold the investor also received one warrant.  Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $0.107 per share at any time on or before January 2015.

Paulson Investment Company, Inc., the underwriter of our public offering, received a sales commission as well as warrants.  The warrants entitle Paulson to purchase 120,000 units at a price of $6.00 per unit.  Each unit consists of 70 shares of our common stock and 70 warrants.  Each warrant entitles Paulson to purchase one additional share of our common stock at a price of $0.107 per share at any time on or before January 2015.

G.           These options, which were granted on January 22, 2010, were not granted pursuant to our Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan.  The options are exercisable at a price of $0.0714 per share and expire on January 22, 2020.

H.           In December 2011 we sold a convertible note in principal amount of $78,500 to a private investor. The note bears interest at 8% per year and is payable on or before February 5, 2013. At any time after June 15, 2012 the note can be converted into shares of our common stock. The number of shares to be issued upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the principal amount to be converted by the conversion price. The conversion price is 58% of the average of the lowest five Trading Prices for our common stock during the ten trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date the note is converted. “Trading Price” means the closing bid price of our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. Based upon the closing prices of our common stock, we would be required to issue 7,850,000 shares of our common stock if the note was converted on March 31, 2012.

I.     In February 2012 we sold a convertible note in principal amount of $42,500 to the same private investor mentioned in Note H above. The note bears interest at 8% per year and is payable on or before February 19, 2013. At any time after August 7, 2012 the note can be converted into shares of our common stock. The number of shares to be issued upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the principal amount to be converted by the conversion price. The conversion price is 58% of the average of the lowest five Trading Prices for our common stock during the ten trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date the note is converted. “Trading Price” means the closing bid price of our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. Based upon the closing prices of our common stock, we would be required to issue 4,250,000 shares of our common stock if the note was converted on February 20, 2012.

ITEM 6.    SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not applicable.

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATION

We are a development stage biotechnology company developing products based on patented and proprietary technology in the area of cancer diagnostics. The technology identifies a universal cancer marker known as RECAF. Patents have been granted in the United States, Europe, Australia, China, Norway and Russia and are pending in other major worldwide markets.

RECAF is a molecule that is present on cancer cells but not detected in significant levels on healthy cells or benign tumor cells.  It is the receptor for alpha-fetoprotein and is classified as an oncofetal antigen due to its presence on both fetal and malignant tissues. This characteristic makes RECAF a more accurate indicator of cancer than most current tumor markers.

We are commercializing our technology through licensing arrangements with companies that develop and market diagnostic tests for the large automated clinical laboratory setting, through development and marketing of non-automated clinical laboratory tests, through development of rapid, point-of-care test formats, and through marketing of our OncoPet RECAF test for cancer in companion animals.

Our business model is to develop internally our RECAF cancer diagnostic platform to the stage where individual applications can be partnered or licensed in strategic relationships for regulatory approval and commercialization.  Our objective is to receive cash from licensing fees, milestone payments, and royalties from such partnerships which support continued development of our cancer diagnostic portfolio.  We have signed licensing agreements for its cancer detection blood tests with Abbott Laboratories and with Inverness Medical Innovations.  In the veterinarian market where there are no regulatory hurdles, our objective is to commercialize our technology through our subsidiary, OncoPet Diagnostics, and with distributors in North America, Europe and elsewhere.

Our success is dependent upon several factors, including, maintaining sufficient levels of funding through pubic and/or private financing, establishing the reliability of our RECAF cancer tests in screening, diagnosis, and follow-up for cancer recurrence, securing and supporting strategic partnerships, securing regulatory approvals where necessary, and commercializing our technology.  We may not be able to achieve these objectives by March 31, 2012, or at all.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since January 2003, we have been able to finance our operations primarily from equity and debt financing, the proceeds from exercise of warrants and stock options, interest income on funds held for investment, and license fees.  We do not have lines of credit with banks or other financial institutions.

(1)  
 
In January 2010 we sold 90,459,600 shares of our common stock, and 90,459,600 warrants, in a public offering.  The proceeds to us from the sale of the shares and warrants, net of underwriting commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $4,800,000, resulting in the increase in cash.  Deferred financing costs at December 31, 2009, which pertained to our public offering, were transferred to Additional Paid-In Capital/Share Issuance Costs upon the completion of the offering.  With proceeds from the public offering we reduced our accounts payable, and made payments on outstanding loans, amounts due to related parties, and convertible debt.

Our sources and (uses) of cash during the years ended December 31, 2011and 2010 were as follows:
 
    Year Ended December 31  
    2011     2010

Proceeds from sale of common stock and exercise of options and warrants, net of issuance costs       2,288       5,701,266  
 
In June 2007, we sold convertible notes, plus warrants, to private investors for $3,000,000.  The notes are due and payable on December 31, 2012 and are secured by substantially all of our assets.  At the holder’s option the notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.13.  From the proceeds of our January 2010 public offering we repaid $1,186,700 to the note holders.  The Company repaid $18,840 to the note holders from the proceeds of the Asher loan in December 2011. Due to principal payments and conversions, the outstanding principal balance of the notes as of December 31, 2011 was $544,460.

In September 2009, we sold promissory notes in the principal amount of $575,000 to twenty accredited investors.  As partial consideration for lending us the $575,000 we issued 8,214,292 shares of our common stock to the investors.  With the proceeds from our January 2010 public offering we repaid $450,000 to the investors.  The remaining balance of $125,000 bears interest at 10%, is unsecured, and is payable on or before January 31, 2013.

In January 2010 we sold 90,459,600 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.0714 per share in a public offering.  For each share sold the investors also received one warrant.  Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $0.107 per share at any time on or before January 2015.  The net proceeds to us from the sale of the shares and warrants, after deducting underwriting commissions and offering costs, were approximately $5,700,000. The net cash provided from this financing after repayment of loans and convertible debt was approximately $3,970,000.

In December 2011 we sold a convertible note in principal amount of $78,500 to a private investor. The note bears interest at 8% per year and is payable on or before February 5, 2013. At any time after June 15, 2012 the note can be converted into shares of our common stock. The number of shares to be issued upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the principal amount to be converted by the conversion price. The conversion price is 58% of the average of the lowest five Trading Prices for our common stock during the ten trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date the note is converted. “Trading Price” means the closing bid price of our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. Based upon the closing prices of our common stock, we would be required to issue 7,850,000 shares of our common stock if the note was converted on March 31, 2012.

We anticipate that our capital requirements for the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2013 will be as follows:
 
Research, development and production of our diagnostic products
  $ 900,000  
General and administrative expenses
    700,000  
Marketing and investor communications
    150,000  
Business development
    50,000  
Payment of interest on amended senior convertible notes and
       
   unsecured promissory notes
    100,000  
Payment of outstanding liabilities
    250,000  
    $ 2,150,000  
 
Our most significant capital requirements are research and development and general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses, exclusive of depreciation, amortization and other expenses not requiring the use of cash (such as the costs associated with issuing stock and options for services), average approximately $60,000 per month. Our research and development expenses vary, depending upon the scope of the programs that we undertake.  As we move further through the development process our research activities become more mature and less capital intensive.  New development projects may have additional capital requirements which we balance with capital available for such programs.

We may not be successful in obtaining additional capital in the future. If we are unable to raise the capital we need, our research and development activities will be curtailed or delayed and our operations will be reduced to a level which can be funded with the capital available to us.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the financial statements which are included as part of this report.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements included as a part of this report.  However, certain accounting policies are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgments by management. As a result, the consolidated financial statements are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying those policies, management uses its judgment to determine the   appropriate   assumptions   to be used in the determination of certain estimates.  These estimates are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, observance of trends in the industry and information available from outside sources, as appropriate.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report and in their opinion our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Chief Executive and Financial Officer of Biocurex to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
 
 
33

 

While we believe that our existing internal control framework and procedures over financial reporting have been effective in accomplishing its objectives, we intend to continue the practice of reevaluating, refining, and expanding its internal controls over financial reporting. Because of our inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, 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 policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.  In making this assessment, our management used criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  Based on this assessment, our management believes that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Stock Option and Bonus Plans

We have a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and a Stock Bonus Plan.  A summary description of these Plans follows.  In some cases these Plans are collectively referred to as the “Plans.”
 
 
39

 

Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan

The Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan authorizes the issuance of shares of our common stock to persons that exercise options or warrants granted pursuant to the Plan.  Our employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors are eligible to be granted options or warrants pursuant to the Plan, provided however that bona fide services must be rendered by such consultants or advisors and such services must not be in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction. The exercise price of the option or warrant is determined by ours Board of Directors.

Stock Bonus Plan

Under the Stock Bonus Plan, our employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors are eligible to receive a grant of our shares, provided however that bona fide services must be rendered by consultants or advisors and such services must not be in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction.
 
 
40

 

Other Information Regarding the Plans

The Plans are administered by our Board of Directors.  The Directors serve for a one-year tenure and until their successors are elected.  A Director may be removed at any time by the vote of a majority of our shareholders.  Any vacancies that may occur on the Board of Directors may be filled by the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors is vested with the authority to interpret the provisions of the Plans and supervise the administration of the Plans.  In addition, the Board of Directors is empowered to select those persons to whom shares or options are to be granted, to determine the number of shares subject to each grant of a stock bonus or an option and to determine when, and upon what conditions, shares or options granted under the Plans will vest or otherwise be subject to forfeiture and cancellation.

In the discretion of the Board of Directors, any option granted pursuant to the Plans may include installment exercise terms such that the option becomes fully exercisable in a series of cumulating portions.  Our Board of Directors may also accelerate the date upon which any option is first exercisable.  Any shares issued pursuant to the Stock Bonus Plan and any options granted pursuant to the Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan will be forfeited if the “vesting” schedule established by the Board of Directors at the time of the grant is not met.  For this purpose, vesting means the period during which the employee must remain an employee of ours for the period of time a non-employee must provide services to us.  At the discretion of our Board of Directors, payment for the shares of common stock underlying options may be paid through the delivery of shares of our common stock having an aggregate fair market value equal to the option price, provided such shares have been owned by the option holder for at least one year prior to such exercise.  A combination of cash and shares of common stock may also be permitted at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Options are generally non-transferable except upon the death of the option holder.  Shares issued pursuant to the Stock Bonus Plan will generally not be transferable until the person receiving the shares satisfies the vesting requirements imposed by the Board of Directors when the shares were issued.

Our Directors may at any time, and from time to time, amend, terminate, or suspend one or more of the Plans in any manner they deem appropriate, provided that such amendment, termination or suspension will not adversely affect rights or obligations with respect to shares or options previously granted.  Our Directors may not make any amendment which would materially modify the eligibility requirements for the Plans or materially increase in any other way the benefits accruing to employees who are eligible to participate in the Plans, without shareholder approval.

ITEM 13.   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

All research involving RECAF is conducted on our behalf by Pacific Bioscience Research Centre, which is owned by Dr. Ricardo Moro, our chief executive officer and a member of our board of directors. We expect that PBRC will also function as a testing laboratory for the veterinarian market once it is developed. We have an agreement with PBRC under which we will pay PBRC fees for research and development and general and administrative expenses. The material terms of the agreement include the following:

  
The balance that we owed to PBRC at September 30, 2009, approximately $390,000, plus all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable on December 31, 2014, unless the agreement is earlier terminated by us without cause or by PBRC as a result of our breach of our monthly payment obligation, in which instances all amounts due PBRC will become immediately due and payable.

  
The amount due will accrue interest at a rate equal to the prime rate. Interest will be payable monthly.

  
We will pay PBRC monthly for its services in an amount that is equal to all costs incurred by PBRC in connection with services it provides to us (the “Costs”) plus a 15% cost adjustment. The Costs will not include any salary paid by PBRC to Dr. Moro.

  
To the extent the cost adjustment in any month exceeds $20,834, such excess will reduce the amount owed by us to PBRC.

  
PBRC will not be allowed to provide services to any person or entity other than us unless its average monthly Costs for any three consecutive months are less than its total expense for salaries and consulting fees for that three-month period. However, we will be allowed to use other laboratories together with or in lieu of PBRC. In addition, we will have the right to terminate the agreement with PBRC at any time upon 90 days prior written notice.

  
PBRC has assigned to us all of its right, title and interest in and to all intellectual property developed or to be developed, including, but not limited to, know-how, processes, data and research results and all tangible property relating to RECAF.

  
The initial term of the agreement expires December 31, 2013 and we have the right to extend the agreement for two additional four-year terms.

  
If we terminate the agreement for any reason other than on account of a default by PBRC, then (i) we must pay PBRC a cancellation payment in an amount equal to 15% of the Costs incurred by PBRC for the six months preceding such termination, (ii) we must give PBRC a perpetual non-exclusive license to our RECAF technology and (iii) PBRC may thereafter perform services for any person or entity.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Directors and Stockholders
BioCurex, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of BioCurex, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' deficit for the years then ended and accumulated for the period from January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. An audit includes 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 internal control over financial reporting. An audit also includes 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BioCurex, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and accumulated for the period from January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency and has incurred significant operating losses since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATMEMENTS
 
1.     NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
 
BioCurex, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on December 8, 1997, under the laws of the State of Texas. During the first quarter of 2001, the Company ceased its business activities relating to the acquisition and sale of thoroughbred racehorses when a change of majority control occurred. On February 21, 2001, the Company acquired intellectual properties and patents relating to cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. The Company is now in the business of developing, producing, marketing and licensing products based on patented and proprietary technology in the area of cancer diagnostics. The Company is considered a development stage enterprise as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities. On October 31, 2008, the Company incorporated BioCurex China Co., Ltd. (“Biocurex China”), a wholly-owned subsidiary in China.  On December 8, 2009, the Company incorporated OncoPet Diagnostics Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary under the laws of the State of Colorado.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company does not have sufficient cash nor does it have an established source of revenue to cover its ongoing costs of operations for the next twelve months. Management plans to obtain additional funds through the sale of its securities. However there is no assurance of additional funding being available. As at December 31, 2011, the Company has a working capital deficit of $(1,447,425) and accumulated losses of $26,392,348 since the inception of the development stage. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
 
These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, BioCurex China and OncoPet Diagnostics Inc. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation of patent costs, stock-based compensation, financial instrument valuations, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Long-lived Assets
 
In accordance with ASC 360, Property Plant and Equipment, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.
 
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, derivative liability, loans payable, convertible notes payable, convertible debt and amounts due to related parties.  These financial instruments are valued in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments. See Note 11.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Comprehensive Income
 
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. During the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no items that represent other comprehensive loss, and therefore has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
 
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260 Earnings Per Share which requires presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. The computation of basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately 151,382,620 of potentially dilutive securities, including options, warrants and equity instruments related to convertible notes payable and convertible debt, all of which were anti-dilutive since the Company incurred losses during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Patents

Patents are stated at cost and have a definite life. Once the Company receives patent approval, amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated remaining life of the patents.

Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less amortization, whereby in the year of acquisition only half a year of amortization is applied. Property and equipment consist of lab equipment acquired during the year of $10,519 less amortization of $1,052 (5 years straight-line), for an ending net book value of $9,467.
 
Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which amends the ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measures and Disclosures.  ASU No. 2010-06 amends the ASC to require disclosure of transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and also requires more detailed disclosure about the activity within Level 3 fair value measurements.  The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures were effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures concerning purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.  This guidance requires expanded disclosures only, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect.  These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

On December 15, 2011 the Company sold a convertible note in a principal amount of $78,500 to a private investor. The note bears interest at 8% per year and is payable on or before March 19, 2013. At any time after June 15, 2012 the note can be converted into shares of our common stock. The number of shares to be issued upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the principal amount to be converted by the conversion price. The conversion price is 58% of the average of the lowest five Trading Prices for our common stock during the ten trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date the note is converted. “Trading Price” means the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. The conversion feature hasn’t been separated from the loan because it does not provide for net settlement until convertible.

10.   UNIT PURCHASE WARRANTS

On January 28, 2010, the Company issued a warrant in conjunction with the Underwriting Agreement described in Note 7(a).  The warrant had an estimated fair value of $939,771 and it allows the underwriters to purchase up to 120,000 units at $6.00 per unit for a term of five years from January 19, 2015.  Each unit consists of 70 shares of common stock and 70 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.107 per share. As at December 31, 2011, the 120,000 unit purchase warrants were outstanding.
 
11.   FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
ASC 825 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

Fair Value Hierarchy

ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets and liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market and do not entail a significant degree of judgment.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets and liabilities for which there are other than Level 1 observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 
F-29

 
 
BIOCUREX, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATMEMENTS
 
11.   FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)
 
Level 2 instruments require more management judgment and subjectivity as compared to Level 1 instruments. For instance:

Determining which instruments are most similar to the instrument being priced requires management to identify a sample of similar securities based on the coupon rates, maturity, issuer, credit rating and instrument type, and subjectively select an individual security or multiple securities that are deemed most similar to the security being priced. Determining whether a market is considered active requires management judgment.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets and liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The determination of fair value for Level 3 instruments requires the most management judgment and subjectivity.
 
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were presented on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 as follows:

12.   DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
 
The embedded conversion option in the Company’s note described in Note 6(b) contains a reset provision that can cause an adjustment to the conversion price if the Company issues certain equity instruments at a price lower than the initial conversion price.  The fair value of these liabilities will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period and the change in fair value will be reported in our consolidated statement of operations as a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments.
 
The following table summarizes the change in derivative liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

      $  
Derivative Liabilities at December 31, 2009
    1,019,503

Settlement of derivative liabilities     (103,923 )
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities     (25,374 )
Derivative liabilities at December 31, 2011     15,862  
 
The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the embedded conversion feature using the following assumptions: number of options as set forth in the convertible note agreements; no expected dividend yield; expected volatility ranging from 99% - 175%; risk-free interest rates ranging from 0.16% - 1.98% and expected terms based on the contractual term.

13.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements because the Company cannot be assured that it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
 
The Company has incurred operating losses of approximately $16,515,585 which, if unutilized, will expire through to 2031. Future tax benefits, which may arise as a result of these losses, have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements, and have been offset by a valuation allowance.
