Supporting Evidence:

The company stated in the following report that they conduct pre-clinical trials of their drugs on animals.

“In a preclinical study presented at the 2016 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology, IMMU-140 was shown to have higher potency than naked IMMU-114 in acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and acute myelocytic leukemia (AML), and an added, if not 300 significant, survival benefit in experimental multiple myeloma (MM) and CLL. Importantly, it did not produce any undue toxicity in these four animal models of human blood cancers.” (Page 1) Read the following document
