IsoRay, Inc. Reports First Quarter Results

CATX

.

RICHLAND, WA, United States, via ETELIGIS INC., 11/17/2014 - - IsoRay, Inc. (NYSE MKT: ISR), a medical technology company and innovator in seed brachytherapy and medical radioisotope applications for the treatment of cancers of the prostate, brain, lung, head and neck and gynecological, announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Management is encouraged by the increase in prostate revenues from this quarter compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2013 as well as our October 2014 prostate revenues. Although is it difficult to establish any trend from these results, management hopes the new healthcare reforms coupled with the number of aging baby boomers that will seek prostate treatment could result in more consistent prostate revenue increases for the Company. Management believes that brachytherapy treatments offer some of the best results for the patient, with fewer side effects and faster recovery back to base line, at the lowest industry cost.

While IsoRay remains committed to the prostate market, management believes its strategic focus continues to remain on expanding the use of Cesium-131 to combat cancers in numerous other body sites. We are extremely pleased with the effectiveness of Cesium-131 as a treatment solution for brain cancer, head and neck cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and gynecological cancers while providing far better quality of life for the patient than other alternatives.

Recent medical journals have reported significant success using Cesium-131 in treating metastatic brain cancer and gynecological cancer. These published peer reviewed studies have created increased interest in leading medical institutions preparing to duplicate these studies independently or join an existing multi-institutional study. During the last quarter, IsoRay added a number of outstanding new medical centers which have either filed for Cesium-131 to be added to their license or have performed cases based on the reported experience of Weill Cornell and University of Kentucky. Some notable names now utilizing Cesium-131 in treating tumors in various body sites include Massachusetts General Hospital, Johns Hopkins, Harvard affiliate Brigham and Womens, Rutgers Medical School and MD Anderson.

With the anticipated addition of new studies being launched and the expectation of other study results being released, IsoRay continues to recruit for its sales and marketing staff. As of December 1, 2014 we have planned new hires which will result in a total of nine (9) sales representatives strategically located throughout the US.

IsoRay continues to invest in R&D data protocols geared to showing improved efficacy over current cancer treatments while providing the patient with an improved quality of life experience. Several new studies are expected to launch in the foreseeable future in various body sites. IsoRay Chairman and CEO Dwight Babcock commented, Clinical evidence provided through protocols performed by major medical centers that prove utilizing Cesium-131 is either equal to or better than the current standard of care alternatives, together with patients enjoying an improved quality of life, remains the key to IsoRays success. These studies also aid in generating awareness and ultimately general adoption by community hospitals/physicians which will drive consumers to our product offerings. To this end and given this growing acceptance and interest in our now published results, we remain committed to our strategic sales and marketing objectives, which we believe will contribute to long term growth and achieving profitability."
