Actinium Signs Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with NCI to Further Enhance Clinical & Non-clinical Development of Actimab-A for the Treatment of AML and Other Hematologic Malignancies

Sandesh Seth, Actinium’s Chairman and CEO, said, “We are incredibly honored to be collaborating with NCI and excited that they share our vision for Actimab-A’s potential for the treatment of AML and other blood cancers.
