SEATTLE, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTI) (Nasdaq and MTA: CTIC) announced today that it has received notification that the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel has granted CTI's request to transfer the listing of its common stock from The NASDAQ Global Market to The NASDAQ Capital Market, which will be effective with the open of trading on Thursday, January 8, 2009. CTI's shares will continue to trade under the ticker symbol CTIC.
CTI's continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market is subject to CTI evidencing compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market, including the $35 million market value of listed securities requirement or its alternatives, as set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3), by February 12, 2009. The Company expects to comply with all applicable requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market by February 12, 2009; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so.
As disclosed on September 6 and October 10, 2008, CTI was previously notified by NASDAQ regarding its non-compliance with the $50 million market value of listed securities requirement for continued listing on The NASDAQ Global Market. In response, CTI appeared before the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel at a hearing at which it requested the transfer of its listing to The NASDAQ Capital Market pursuant to its plan to evidence compliance with the $35 million market value of listed securities requirement for continued listing on that market.
The NASDAQ Capital Market is one of the three market tier designations for NASDAQ-listed stocks and operates in substantially the same manner as The NASDAQ Global Market. Securities listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market must satisfy all applicable qualification requirements for NASDAQ securities, and companies listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market must meet certain financial requirements and adhere to NASDAQ's corporate governance standards.

Compared to Standard Therapies, Pixantrone Decreases Time to Achieve Complete Remission by 47% in Relapsed Aggressive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Wednesday, February 18, 2009 01:30ET
KNOBIAS: RAiDAR Story
SEATTLE, Feb. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq and MTA: CTIC) announced today that updated safety and efficacy data from the phase III trial of pixantrone provides further support for a robust clinical benefit for pixantrone when used as single agent therapy in the treatment of multiple relapsed aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). On an intent-to-treat analysis, pixantrone recipients who achieved a complete remission did so during the first 2 cycles of therapy, compared to 4 cycles among standard chemotherapy recipients, (1.9 months vs. 3.6 months, pixantrone vs. standard chemotherapy). The duration of response in the patients was similar in the 37% of pixantrone patients who had either a partial or complete response compared to the 14% of comparator patients with a major response. However, the overall progression free survival (PFS) was significantly longer in the pixantrone arm (4.7 months vs. 2.6 months, hazard ratio = 0.6; p = 0.0074, pixantrone vs. standard chemotherapy). Thirty-two percent (32%) of pixantrone patients received all 6 cycles of therapy, with 84% receiving 5 of 6 cycles of treatment. Pixantrone recipients had a low incidence of severe neutropenia complicated by either fever or documented infections, or severe vomiting or diarrhea. Pixantrone patients also experienced a low incidence of hair loss, a very common side effect of other drugs in this class. Overall, the incidence of serious adverse events was similar between pixantrone and the control arm. The pixantrone patients had a higher incidence of leucopenia and neutropenia and numerically more severe cardiac events (4 vs 2) than in the control arm. Disease progression reported as an adverse event was less frequent in the pixantrone than in the control arm (1.5% vs. 13.4%).
"We were impressed to see that 84% of patients received at least 5 cycles of pixantrone therapy with a median total dose of 1,475 mg, despite having had significant prior therapy with doxorubicin, an agent in a similar class with cumulative cardiotoxicity," noted Jack Singer, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at CTI. "The rapid time-to-response data coupled with the relatively low incidence of traditional anthracycline toxicities and a safety profile that compares favorably to standard chemotherapy, positions pixantrone to live up to the promise of providing patients with relapsed aggressive NHL a meaningful clinical benefit."
CTI announced in November 2008 that it had achieved the primary efficacy endpoint of its phase III EXTEND (PIX301) trial of pixantrone (BBR2778). Patients randomized to treatment with pixantrone achieved a high rate of confirmed and unconfirmed complete remissions compared to patients treated with standard chemotherapy (14/70 (20.0%) for pixantrone arm compared to 4/70 (5.7%) for the standard chemotherapy arm, p = 0.02). No patient (0%) in the standard chemotherapy arm achieved a confirmed complete remission compared to 8/70 (11%) of pixantrone recipients.
CTI expects to begin submission of a rolling New Drug Application (NDA) and request priority review for pixantrone to treat relapsed aggressive non- Hodgkin's lymphoma ( NHL) in the first quarter of 2009. If granted priority review a decision on the NDA could occur before the end of 2009.
The study received Special Protocol Assessment approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2004, and pixantrone has received fast track designation for this indication.
About Pixantrone
Pixantrone (BBR 2778), a DNA intercalating antitumor agent that contains an aza-anthracenedione molecular structure, differentiating it from anthracycline chemotherapy agents, was discovered by our scientists in Bresso, Italy. Pixantrone is a novel DNA major groove binder that contains an aza- anthracenedione molecular structure, differentiating it from anthracycline chemotherapy agents. Anthracyclines have been shown to be very active clinically in a number of tumor types, such as lymphoma, leukemia, and breast cancer. For these diseases, anthracycline-containing chemotherapy regimens are effective in first-line (initial) treatment. However, they may cause cumulative heart damage that limits lifetime dosage and does not allow for retreatment. Pixantrone has been designed to reduce the potential for heart damage compared to currently available anthracyclines or anthracenediones without a loss in anti-tumor or immunomodulatory activities.

CTI to focus on Pixantrone and OPAXIO Approval and Commercialization
SEATTLE, Feb. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTI) (Nasdaq and MTA: CTIC) announced today that it exercised its option to sell its 50% ownership interest in the Zevalin joint venture to Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Spectrum) for $18 million. CTI and Spectrum established a joint venture in December 2008 to develop and commercialize Zevalin. At that time CTI contributed all of the Zevalin related assets to the joint venture and sold to Spectrum a 50% membership interest in the joint venture for $15 million, plus certain milestone payments.
The Company will focus its resources on the approval of pixantrone for relapsed aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and OPAXIO for non-small cell lung and ovarian cancer. CTI estimates that as a result of the sale of the Zevalin interest it will reduce expenses by approximately $15 million annually from activities previously associated with Zevalin while providing CTI with non-dilutive source of operating capital.
"CTI continues to believe in the value of Zevalin as a commercially attractive product and effective form of cancer therapy; however, with the impressive clinical trial results for pixantrone and given the company's need for operating capital, we are compelled to exercise our option and focus our resources on pixantrone," noted James Bianco, MD, CEO of CTI. "CTI has been proud to have provided Zevalin to patients since we acquired it in December, 2007 and having the foresight to bring the first line consolidation for indolent NHL data to the FDA for potential label expansion in the front line consolidation setting. With the progress we made in removing many of the barriers that prevent its more widespread use, we are confident Spectrum will be able to ultimately make Zevalin a commercially attractive product."
At the closing of the sale of CTI's 50% membership interest in the joint venture to Spectrum, CTI will receive $6 million, with the remainder of the $18 million to be paid within 90 days following such closing. The closing of the sale option transaction is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the delivery of a legal opinion from counsel to CTI, as specified in the operating agreement for the Zevalin joint venture. CTI believes that it will be in a position to promptly satisfy all of the closing conditions.
About Zevalin(R)
Zevalin(R) (Ibritumomab Tiuxetan) is a form of cancer therapy called radioimmunotherapy and is indicated as part of the Zevalin therapeutic regimen for treatment of relapsed or refractory, lowgrade or follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, including patients with rituximab refractory follicular NHL. Zevalin is also indicated, under accelerated approval, for the treatment of relapsed or refractory, rituximab-naive, low-grade and follicular NHL based on studies using a surrogate endpoint of overall response rate. It was approved by the FDA in February of 2002 as the first radioimmunotherapeutic agent for the treatment of NHL.
Rare deaths associated with an infusion reaction symptom complex have occurred within 24 hours of rituximab (Rituxan(R)) infusions. Yttrium-90 Zevalin administration results in severe and prolonged cytopenias in most patients. Severe cutaneous and mucocutaneous reactions have been reported. The most serious adverse reactions of the Zevalin therapeutic regimen were primarily hematologic, including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia and anemia. Infusion-related toxicities were associated with pre-administration of rituximab. The risk of hematologic toxicity correlated with the degree of bone marrow involvement prior to Zevalin therapy. Myelodysplasia or acute myelogenous leukemia was observed in 2 percent of patients (8 to 34 months after treatment). Zevalin should only be used by health care professionals qualified by training and experience in the safe use of radionuclides.
Patients and healthcare professionals can visit Zevalin - Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Therapy with Rituximab for more information.
About Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is caused by the abnormal proliferation of white blood cells and normally spreads through the lymphatic system, a system of vessels that drains fluid from the body. NHL can be broadly classified into two main forms - aggressive NHL, a rapidly spreading acute form of the disease, and indolent NHL, which progresses more slowly. According to the National Cancer Institute's SEER database there were nearly 400,000 people in the U.S. with NHL in 2004. The American Cancer Society estimates that in the United States 66,120 people are expected to be diagnosed with NHL in 2008. Additionally, approximately 19,160 are expected to die from this disease in 2008.

This press release includes forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, the outcome of which could materially and/or adversely affect actual future results. Specifically, the risks and uncertainties that could affect the development of Zevalin include risks associated with preclinical and clinical developments in the biopharmaceutical industry in general and with Zevalin in particular including, without limitation, the potential for Zevalin FIT data to be acceptable to the FDA for this expanded indication or any other indication, the determinations by regulatory, patent and administrative governmental authorities, competitive factors, technological developments, and costs of developing, producing and selling Zevalin. There is also a risk that even if label expansion of Zevalin is approved, it may not result in a significant market increase for the drug due to the presence of other treatment options, failure to gain market acceptance and other factors. Additionally, the closing of the sale option and receipt of the purchase price assumes that the company will be able to satisfy all of the closing conditions and that Spectrum fulfills its legal obligations to timely deliver the purchase price. Disposition of our interest in Zevalin may not reduce our expenses to the extent as currently projected. You should also review the risk factors listed or described from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including, without limitation, the Company's most recent filings on Forms 10-K, 8-K, and 10-Q. Except as may be required by law, CTI does not intend to update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
