Delta-Fly Pharma Inc.: Update for Development Status of DFP-17729
4.12.2024 13:00:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
We are excited to share our latest development status.
We are pleased to announce that as a result of consultation with the PMDA on December 3rd, 2024, the Phase II/III clinical trial of DFP-17729 in combination with TS-1 versus TS-1 alone in patients with pancreatic cancer after third-line treatment was approved.
In a Phase I/II study of DFP-17729 in combination with TS-1 in patients with end-stage pancreatic cancer, no significant difference was observed against the control treatment (TS-1 or gemcitabine), but stratified analysis showed that when patients in the third-line or later treatment were treated for more than 6 weeks, DFP-17729 in combination with TS-1 showed a predominant median overall survival (mOS) prolongation (9.0 months vs. 6.1 months) and a significant correlation was also observed between urinary alkalinization and mOS in pancreatic cancer patients treated with DFP-17729, as key proof of concept. We had presented these results at the ESMO Gastrointestinal Cancers Congress 2024 and the 55 Annual Meeting of the Japan Pancreas Society, where much attention was paid to the presentation.
DFP-17729 is a novel approach to neutralize the acidic cancer microenvironment, and several patents on related inventions have been granted in major countries around the world, and its potential of efficacy has been published in peer-reviewed journals.
We will first identify DFP-17729 as a treatment for refractory pancreatic cancer, for which effective treatment is not yet available, and then seek to expand the indication to other types of cancer through partnership with major global pharmaceutical companies.
Please take notice of our own innovative approach for miserable cancer patients and contact us.

The Only AI Crypto Lead Prioritization Solution Built With Law Enforcement, for Law Enforcement: Elliptic Launches Pulse24.9.2026 16:15:00 EEST | Press release
Elliptic, the global leader in on-chain risk, today launched Pulse. Pulse puts crypto lead prioritization directly in the hands of every frontline law enforcement and government officer. Crypto now touches every part of law enforcement, from the patrol officer on the street to the detective assigned to investigate the case. Pulse gives each of them a quick, accurate financial summary and a starting point: whether that's a crypto address on a suspect's phone, in a scam ATM victim's receipt, uncovered during a vehicle or pocket search, or found at the scene of an overdose, an arrest, or a seizure. An officer can input anything that looks like a wallet address or transaction hash. Pulse identifies it, reasons over the result, and returns a summary in plain language, enough for the officer to decide on the spot whether the case needs escalation. If a case needs further investigation, one click sends the full analysis forward, not just the evidence. The criminal investigations division gets
SymphonyAI Introduces Symphony Risk Intelligence, an Agent-native Platform That Unlocks Always-on Compliance™ — the Catalyst for Transforming the Financial Crime Operating Model24.9.2026 16:04:00 EEST | Press release
SymphonyAI today introduced Symphony Risk Intelligence (SRI), an enterprise-grade, agent-native platform built to unlock Always-on Compliance™. This is a critical shift from periodic to continuous risk and compliance management, in which institutions continuously reassess risk and adapt controls as regulations, threats and business activity change, rather than waiting for the next scheduled review. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260924914614/en/ Current approaches have reached their structural limits. The FinCrime Frontier 2026–27 Report, released recently by SymphonyAI and AML Intelligence, finds just 4.7% of financial institutions continuously update their compliance monitoring and controls as risk changes, and 76.3% still review alerts manually or with only partial automation — barely changed year over year. Yet standing still isn't an option: the regulatory climate is at a major inflection point across ev
Just 4.7% of Financial Institutions Continuously Update Their Compliance Monitoring and Controls as Risk Changes, New Research Finds24.9.2026 16:04:00 EEST | Press release
SymphonyAI, a global leader in vertical AI product platforms, and AML Intelligence, the leading source of news and insight for the financial crime compliance community, today released the FinCrime Frontier 2026–27 Report, finding that most financial institutions still rely on periodic review cycles to manage financial crime risk, even as the threats and regulations they are meant to track continue to evolve dynamically. Based on the perspectives of more than 200 financial crime and compliance leaders, including senior leaders from major global financial institutions, the research finds that just 4.7% of financial institutions continuously update their compliance monitoring and controls as risk changes, while 56.8% have not adopted always-on compliance monitoring at all, are only exploring it, or remain at an early, pilot-stage level. The finding points to a structural gap: financial crime typologies, payment ecosystems and regulatory expectations are evolving continuously, while most c
