The report highlights the fact that energy consumption will continue to increase (28% in electricity consumption from 2012 to 2040 according to the Energy Information Administration), and there are "significant opportunity for alternative sources of electricity generation" such as those manufactured by Powerdyne International, Inc.
The report states:
As a manufacturer of portable, scalable electricity generators powered by natural gas (as well as other fuels), PWDY is targeting a market in which large scale economic trends are creating significant opportunity for alternative sources of electricity generation to be consumed by a wide range of potential municipal, industrial and commercial clients
About Powerdyne International, Inc.:
Powerdyne International, Inc. is a manufacturing company that builds and leases electrical generation equipment including its own portable electrical power generation equipment called PDIGenset (which is patent and trademark pending).
PDIGensets are designed to be installed at virtually any location. The genset is leased and maintained by PDI. Although the company's target customer will typically use its PDIGenset to produce its own primary electrical power, it can be used for emergency back-up power generation and is useful in any situation where reliable power is needed.
PDI is founded on the ability to produce primary electrical power using proprietary technology to power electrical generation equipment which makes electricity cheaper than existing means of producing primary electric power. PDI expects that the difference between its cost of generating electricity over its customer's current cost will result in substantial savings to the customer.

Powerdyne International, Inc is a development stage manufacturing company that builds and leases electrical generation equipment including its own portable electrical power generation equipment called PDIGenset (which is patent trademark pending). PDIGensets are designed to be installed at virtually any location. The genset is leased and maintained by PDI. Although the company's target customer will typically use its PDIGenset to produce its own primary electrical power, the genset is designed to be useful in any situation where reliable power is needed. PDI is founded with the objective to produce primary electrical power using proprietary technology to power electrical generation equipment which makes electricity cheaper than existing means of producing primary electric power. PDI expects that the difference between its cost of generating electricity over its customer's current cost will result in substantial savings to the customer.
PWDY's initial product is the PDIGenset (patent pending) which is a self-contained generator that is powered by a modified radial air cooled engine to drive a minimum of a 1-megawatt generator. The entire unit, which runs on natural gas or propane, is compact, lightweight and clean burning. As a result, the unit will produce extremely low emissions and is designed to be extremely energy-efficient. PWDY has recently completed a fully operational factory Series 2 prototype, which has been tested and is ready as a demonstration unit. This unit is available for any prospective customers to view in full operational capacity. In addition, the Series 2 prototype is ready to be manufactured for customers upon placement of customer orders.
PWDY plans to manufacture, install, maintain and lease its own portable electrical power equipment. The Company plans to manufacture portable electrical power equipment intended to be installed at client locations. The Company will own, maintain and lease the equipment to the customer who will use it to produce its own supplemental electrical power. The Company's products are intended to be portable, easy-to-use units that can be conveniently redeployed in various locations around the world. The Company's units can also be assembled and combined to produce power centers providing up to 50 megawatts of power. The Company's headquarters are located in Warwick, Rhode Island and operates a manufacturing facility in Massachusetts. The Company will market its products in locations where inexpensive electrical power is needed and clean energy powered electrical equipment is needed and/or required.
As forecast in the U.S. Energy Information Administration's (EIA) recently released Annual Energy Outlooki, factors such as economic structural changes, higher electricity prices, mandated environmentally friendly standards, and improved efficiencies are expected to slow the rate of growth in electricity consumption. However, from 2012 to 2040, the EIA still expects an increase of 28% in electricity use which is forecast to grow from 1.8% of GDP currently to 2.4% of GDP in 2040.
While it seems reasonable to expect that electricity demand will create market opportunity for PWDY products, it's also important to consider what may happen to price and demand for the fuels that power those products. The following conclusions from the EIA report address the outlook for natural gas in particular:
  • "Growing domestic production of natural gas and oil continues to reshape the U.S. energy economy...
  • With continued growth in shale gas production, natural gas becomes the largest source of U.S. electric power generation, surpassing coal by 2035, and boosting production and natural gas consumption in manufacturing.
  • Strong growth in domestic natural gas production supports increased exports of both pipeline and liquefied natural gas. With strong growth in domestic oil and gas production, U.S. dependence on imported fuels falls sharply..."
While an increase in the use of, and demand for, natural gas for electricity generation, transportation and industrial uses would seem to imply that prices must increase, the EIA cites massive expected increases in shale gas production as a driver for keeping prices low. With 2012 U.S. dry natural gas production estimated at approximately 25 trillion cubic feet in 2012, the EIA expects U.S. production to surpass 100 trillion cubic feet by 2040, with shale gas accounting for approximately half of that production resulting in modest expected increases in natural gas prices enabling the U.S. to remain a net exporter of petroleum products.
With both increasing electricity demand and stable fuel prices as positive macro trends for PWDY products, the Company also is targeting a market in which changing fundamentals create opportunity as well. As characterized by David Crane, CEO of NRG Energy (NYSE: NRG), which generates 47,000 megawatts from solar, wind, fossil and nuclear sources - enough to support almost 40 million homes, changes in power production and consumption driven by distributed generation in particular represent "a mortal threat to the existing utility system."

Biotech News Alert: Sunshine Biopharma (OTCQB: SBFM) Targets Pancreatic Cancer as Second Indication for Clinical Trials of Adva-27a Compound

MONTREAL, QC - January 21, 2014 (Investorideas.com Biotech Newswire) Sunshine Biopharma Inc. ( OTCQB: SBFM ), a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer, today announced that it is now targeting pancreatic cancer as a second indication for Adva-27a, the Company's flagship anticancer drug candidate. As previously announced (see press release dated June 4, 2013), Adva-27a, a Topoisomerase II inhibitor, was found to be effective at destroying cells of the very aggressive pancreatic cancer cell line, Panc-1. Adva-27a was able to kill these cells with an IC50 of approximately 4 micromolar, a pharmacologically very favorable drug concentration. Based on initial data, the Company is moving forward with intentions to conduct a Phase I clinical trial of Adva-27a for pancreatic cancer in parallel to the planned Phase I clinical trial of Adva-27a for breast cancer that is scheduled to be hosted at McGill University's Jewish General Hospital in Montreal.

"As we work towards completing the process of re-domiciling the Company to Canada and conducting the requisite IND-enabling toxicology studies of Adva-27a, we are now proceeding with additional research centered on pancreatic cancer as a second indication," said Dr. Steve N. Slilaty, Chief Executive Officer of Sunshine Biopharma. "Pancreatic cancer represents an area of tremendous unmet medical need and significant market opportunity. Our research to date indicates that Adva-27a has the potential to become a new therapy option for patients suffering this deadly form of cancer."
About Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer has an extremely poor prognosis. Most pancreatic cancer patients will die within one year of diagnosis. Cancer of the pancreas is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 45,220 new cases of pancreatic cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. in 2013. Approximately 95% of pancreatic tumors are of the adenocarcinoma type, arising within the exocrine component of the pancreas where various digestive enzymes are produced. The remaining 5% arise from the islet cells and are classified as neuroendocrine tumors. The islet cells produce important hormones such as insulin, which regulates the sugar levels in the blood. Both types are very aggressive and respond poorly to standard chemotherapy drugs. In contrast to the downward trend in death rates for most major cancer types, death rates due to pancreatic cancer have been slowly increasing in the U.S. over the past decade. This, together with the lack effective therapy, underscores the need for major new drug development efforts to reverse these trends.
About Adva-27a
Adva-27a is Sunshine Biopharma's lead anticancer compound, a small molecule that has recently been shown to be effective at killing multidrug resistant breast cancer cells, small-cell lung cancer cells, uterine sarcoma cells and pancreatic cancer cells (Published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, Volume 32, Pages 4423-4432, October 2012). Adva-27a is currently in the IND-Enabling stage of development. The original U.S. patent covering Adva-27a was issued on August 7, 2012 under U.S. patent number 8,236,935.
About Sunshine Biopharma Inc.
Sunshine Biopharma is an early stage pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer. Sunshine Biopharma recently announced that it has initiated IND-Enabling studies for its lead antitumor compound, Adva-27a, which is currently targeted for multidrug resistant cancer.

TSX Biotech Stock: Q&A Interview with CEO of Quest PharmaTech (TSX.V: QPT)

New York NY - Point Roberts WA - January 21, 2014 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source for leading sectors including biotech and pharma issues an exclusive interview with Dr. Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Quest PharmaTech Inc. (TSX.V: QPT). Dr. Madiyalakan shares insight into the Company’s pipeline of oncology products. The Company takes a unique approach to cancer treatment that capitalizes on the recent major advances in the understanding of immune physiology and developing proprietary next generation cancer immunotherapy treatments using select antibodies, adjuvants and photosensitizers.

Interview:
Q: Investorideas.com
For readers unfamiliar with your company, can you give a brief introduction on your background in the biotech space and the formation of Quest PharmaTech?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
I have been involved in the Biotech industry for over 27 years, first as a scientist at Biomira Inc (now known as Oncothyreon) and then as a founding executive team member of several biotech companies including, AltaRex Corp., CanBiocin Inc. and SonoLight Pharmaceuticals Corp. My relationship with Quest began when Quest PharmaTech acquired SonoLight Pharmaceuticals in 2001. That acquisition provided a path forward for technology I had invented and championed ([Dr. Madiyalakan holds 10 primary U.S. patents and eight pending patents]). I have been instrumental in raising more than $200 million through private placement and public offerings for those companies. I specialize in advancing novel technologies with great therapeutic potential in areas of unmet medical need.
Quest was started as a research and development company in 1998 and was listed on the TSX Venture Exchange in 1999. I have been CEO of the Company since 2006.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you briefly describe the current product portfolio and the primary oncology focus for each?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
Our technology is focused on the immunotherapy of cancer. We utilize tumor directed monoclonal antibodies to activate the specific immunity; however we recognize that successful therapy requires orchestrated combination with chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy and select additional immune modulators or adjuvants. Our lead product, Oregovomab, which is currently completing a phase II clinical trial in both Italy and the U.S., is used in combination with standard chemotherapy in ovarian cancer patients. It is also being tested in combination with other immunotherapeutic agents for use in treating pancreatic cancer patients. Our pipeline also includes proprietary antibodies against other cancer markers, most notably MUC1, PSA and HER2. We expect to advance our MUC1 targeting antibody into the clinic in the coming year. MUC1 expressing cancers include many commonly occurring solid cancers such as breast, pancreatic and lung cancers.
We are also very excited about our new pipeline of therapeutic IgE antibodies, which we recently acquired from Advanced Immune Therapeutics, Inc. and for which we obtained license rights from UCLA and Stanford University. In addition to their immunotherapeutic potential, these molecules also have the potential to act in the tumor micro-environment to augment the effectiveness of chemotherapy. We truly believe that the IgE technology will be a breakthrough for the treatment of cancer.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you discuss the current status of your flagship product OREGOVOMAB and its applications in immune therapy?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
Quest's proprietary approach uses antibodies to modulate and enhance specific immunity to the target tumor antigen and associated tumor. Recent insights into the ability of cytotoxic therapy to enhance immunity, and the development of novel adjuvant approaches, suggests that a simple and artful approach using a combination of components for specific cancer immunotherapy can change the clinical course of cancer. We are using our lead product Oregovomab as an example to demonstrate the proof of concept for the combinatorial immunotherapeutic approach and trying to identify ideal combinations by conducting three different clinical trials. The most advanced of these is an 80 patient phase II clinical trial in advanced ovarian cancer patients that is being conducted in 13 clinical centers in Italy and the U.S. We hope the results from this trial will confirm the findings in an earlier study that shows combining chemotherapy with Oregovomab leads to the generation of specific anti-cancer T-cells and the potential for clinical benefits. We are also conducting another clinical trial in the U.S. using Oregovomab in combination with another chemotherapeutic agent, Gemcitabine, together with radiation therapy for treating pancreatic cancer. The trial will help us to expand the market opportunities for Oregovomab to other CA125 expressing cancers as well as to evaluate immunotherapy in combination with chemo radiotherapy. We are also looking at the addition of an immunoadjuvant, Hiltonol, a TLR3 agonist, which we have licensed from a U.S based company, Oncovir, to further augment the immune response. The completion of these 3 clinical trials will provide us with the roadmap for commercialization of this product. To summarize, Quest's approach has created an opportunity to mobilize immunity, better, more precisely and for less cost than other methods that are in development, and, or, recently approved.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you give us some background on the key members of your team and the scientific board and the expertise they bring to the company?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
Working with me on themanagement team, I have Thomas Woo, Vice President of Product Development since 2002. Thomas honed his drug development skills at Biomira, AltaRex and Cytovax. My CFO, Pierre Vermette, comes with extensive experience gained at the Alberta Securities Commission and has been with the Company since 2003.
On theBoard of Directors, I have Lorne Meikle, our Chairman, Ian McConnan, our Audit Committee Chair and Paul Van Damme, our Corporate Governance Chair.
Mr. Meikle has an extensive background in the life sciences area, Mr. McConnan is a former partner of several public accounting firms, and Mr. Van Damme has acted in the CFO role for a number of public and private companies.
On the Company's Scientific Advisory Board, I have internationally known scientists who occupy important positions in various institutions around the world. Dr. Samuel Abraham, Ph.D., is the Vice President of Research with the British Columbia Cancer Agency. Professor Ki-Jun Hwang is a well respected medicinal chemist at Chonbuk University in South Korea. One of the clinicians, Dr. Ronald Moore, who is developing a unique treatment for prostate cancer at the Cross Cancer Institute in Canada, is also one of our scientific advisory board members. Dr. Moore, along with Dr. Gerald Miller in Australia, provide a strong scientific direction to our photodynamic therapy program.
On the Company's Clinical Advisory Board (CAB), I have Dr. Christopher Nicodemus, a clinical expert in tumor immunology and drug development who has been championing the combinatorial immunotherapeutic approach supported by numerous publications and patents. He relies on the advice of his fellow CAB members, key opinion leaders such as Professor William McGuire in the U.S, Professor Ignace Vergote in Belgium and Dr. Thomas Ehlen in Canada.
All members of the CAB have a keen interest in innovative improvements in the area of ovarian cancer and see a great opportunity to advance the previous learning with Oregovomab in the context of combination therapies that will better access the immune response and limit immune suppression that has impeded earlier efforts to vaccinate against cancer.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you share with readers the significance of some of your key relationships including Stanford University and UCLA?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
Significance of Key Relationships:
We are very pleased to be licensing IgE technologies developed by the distinguished scientists from these prestigious institutions. In addition, we are also working closely with the Eppley Cancer Institute at the University of Nebraska to develop animal models and complete pre-clinical testing of potential drug candidates.
Q: Investorideas.com
With all biotech companies, funding is a key factor to success; last November you announced a $1million placement for Quest PharmaTech. C an you explain the significance of this round of financing and where this takes you to?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
We wanted to strengthen our relationship with our long term investment partner, AD Biotech Co., Ltd. AD Biotech has committed $12 Million to fund our ongoing clinical programs during the next two years. We were pleased with their confidence in Quest as demonstrated by their investment of $1 Million at a premium share price.
Q: Investorideas.com
In closing what are some of the key milestones for 2014 for Quest PharmaTech?
A: Madi R. Madiyalakan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer
Some of the key 2014 milestones we hope to achieve in the coming year include completing patient enrollment of the Oregovomab clinical trial and obtaining preliminary data for the Oregovomab clinical trial in Italy and US; initiating a clinical study combining Oregovomab with immuno-adjuvants; expanding the Company's opportunities for revenue generation through product sales of some evidence based over-the-counter nutraceutical and cosmetic products licensed from our joint venture partner; generating critical additional data demonstrating the therapeutic potential of our proprietary IgE portfolio; and, pursuing out-licensing arrangements as a source of additional revenue and validation for our technologies.

Biopharma Q&A Interview; Dr. Steve N. Slilaty Ph.D., Chairman, CEO of Sunshine Biopharma (OTCQB: SBFM) Shares Insight into Recent Company Move and Updates Lead Cancer Compound Adva-27a

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - December 19, 2013 (Investorideas.com Biotech Newswire) Investorideas.com, a research and news portal covering leading sectors, issues an exclusive Q&A interview with Dr. Steve N. Slilaty Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of Sunshine Biopharma Inc. (OTCQB: SBFM). Sunshine is Biopharma a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of various forms of cancer.

Dr. Steve N. Slilaty shares insight to the recent news that it has re-domiciled in Canada for expansion through acquisitions and to gain access to various financing opportunities available to Canadian corporations, in addition to updating the current status of its lead cancer product Adva-27a.
Q: Investorideas.com
Dr. Slilaty can you explain to investors the significance of the recent move to Canada corporately and what direct benefits are realized?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty Ph.D., Chairman, CEO
There are several advantages relating to the fiscal environment in Canada which are conducive to companies planning to expand through acquisitions. For example, there are provisions in the Canadian Tax Act which allow Canadian companies to acquire other Canadian companies in a share exchange transaction on a tax exempt basis. In addition, there are significant tax credits available to Canadian companies conducting R&D in Canada and Sunshine’s drug development program would benefit a great deal such tax provisions.
Q: Investorideas.com
For investors unfamiliar with your company, can you give a brief history of some of the data and testing on your lead compound Adva-27a and the basic principle of how it works?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty Ph.D., Chairman, CEO
Adva-27a is Topoisomerase 2 inhibitor. Suppression of Topoisomerase 2 enzyme activity is a well-established anticancer target. Unlike all existing Topoisomerase 2 inhibitors, Adva-27a continues to work even when cells become multidrug resistant. This remarkable property is unique to Adva-27a! Our preclinical studies to date have shown that:
  • Adva-27a is effective at killing different types of multidrug resistant cancer cells, including:
    • Breast Cancer Cells (MCF-7/MDR)
    • Small-Cell Lung Cancer Cells (H69AR)
    • Uterine Cancer (MES-SA/Dx5)
    • Pancreatic Cancer (Panc-1)
  • Adva-27a is unaffected by P-Glycoprotein, the enzyme responsible for making cancer cells resistant to anti-tumor drugs
  • Adva-27a has excellent clearance time (half-life = 54 minutes) as indicated by human microsomes stability studies and pharmacokinetics data in rats
  • Adva-27a clearance is independent of Cytochrome P450, a mechanism that is less likely to produce toxic intermediates
  • Adva-27a is an excellent inhibitor of Topoisomerase II with an IC50 of only 13.7 micromolar
  • Adva-27a has shown excellent pharmacokinetics profile as indicated by studies done in rats
  • Adva-27a does not inhibit tubulin assembly
  • Adva-27a exhibits low toxicity levels as indicated by measurements using the non-cancerous cell line, HMEC
Q: Investorideas.com
With data on multiple cancers, is there one area the company will focus on specifically?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty Ph.D., Chairman, CEO
Yes, we are initially focused on treating breast cancer patients whose disease has become multidrug resistant. These patients currently have no treatment options available to them as all existing anticancer drugs cease to work. We are anxious to make our Adva-27a available to them soon. To this end, we have signed an agreement with McGill University’s Jewish General Hospital here in Montreal ( Canada) to conduct Phase I clinical trials on such patients. This is the first step in our clinical development program of Adva-27a.
Q: Investorideas.com
For investors unfamiliar with the difference between getting approval in Canada vs. US FDA approval, can you explain the process in Canada, the timelines, cost and what is next for Sunshine Biopharma?
A: Dr. Steve N. Slilaty Ph.D., Chairman, CEO
The approval process in Canada is very similar to that of the United States. Health Canada has very similar guidelines to those established by the FDA in the U.S. In fact, our Phase I clinical trials protocols are compliant with the requirements on both sides of the boarder and we will be able to file our results both in Canada and the US pretty much simultaneously. In terms of timelines, like the U.S., Canada has a so-called “fast-track” process for which is available for drugs that treat terminally ill patients as is the case with Adva-27a. Next, we anticipate initiating the human trials following completion of our next round of financing.
About Adva-27a
Adva-27a is Sunshine Biopharma's lead anticancer compound, a small molecule that has recently been shown to be effective at killing multidrug resistant breast cancer cells, small-cell lung cancer cells, uterine sarcoma cells and pancreatic cancer cells (Published in ANTICANCER RESEARCH, Volume 32, Pages 4423-4432, October 2012). Adva-27a is currently in the IND-Enabling stage of development. The original U.S. patent covering Adva-27a was issued on August 7, 2012 under US patent number 8,236,935.

Solar Stock XsunX (OTCQB: XSNX) to Deliver Several New Commercial Solar Systems

ALISO VIEJO, CA - December 19, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX), a renewable energy technology, systems, and services company, today announced the successful sale of an additional 20kW commercial solar system in Southern California. This comes on the heels of 50kW of solar systems projects announced earlier this week.

"We are pleased with the sales results we announced this week, but we are even more pleased with the response to our media marketing campaign that was launched last week targeting major Southern California communities from Ventura to San Diego," stated XsunX CEO, Tom Djokovich.
Southern California represents one of the largest commercial PV system markets in the nation and a tremendous opportunity for the Company. Mr. Djokovich continued, "We are finding that business owners with large facilities and large electric bills are contacting us to see how XsunX can help them. We are just now starting to get our message out and the response has been very good. Our focus is on providing reliable services to these businesses."
The Company has specifically targeted the commercial and industrial PV installations market for several reasons. While the sales cycle can be more complex and lengthy, the projects offer XsunX the ability to generate system sales approaching 1 megawatt or more and potentially millions of dollars in contract value.

To help secure sales, the Company can now offer system financing to its customers. "Our goal was to make buying a commercial PV system as easy for our clients as buying a car," offered Mr. Djokovich. "We recently qualified to offer up to $1 million of project funding which completes our ability to offer the best project financial analysis, PV systems design and technologies, and zero down low interest financing."
