Cellectar&rsquo;s product candidates are built upon its patented cancer cell-targeting delivery and retention platform of optimized
phospholipid ether-drug conjugates (PDCs). The company deliberately designed its phospholipid ether (PLE) carrier platform to be
coupled with a variety of payloads to facilitate both therapeutic and diagnostic applications. The basis for selective tumor targeting
of our PDC compounds lies in the differences between the plasma membranes of cancer cells compared to those of normal cells. Cancer
cell membranes are highly enriched in lipid rafts, which are glycolipoprotein microdomains of the plasma membrane of cells that
contain high concentrations of cholesterol and sphingolipids, and serve to organize cell surface and intracellular signaling molecules.
PDCs have been tested in more than 80 different xenograft models of cancer.</P>

Cellectar Biosciences is developing phospholipid drug conjugates (PDCs) designed to provide cancer targeted delivery of diverse
oncologic payloads to a broad range of cancers and cancer stem cells. Cellectar's PDC platform is based on the company's proprietary
phospholipid ether analogs. These novel small-molecules have demonstrated highly selective uptake and retention in a broad range
of cancers. Cellectar's PDC pipeline includes product candidates for cancer therapy and cancer diagnostic imaging. The company's
lead therapeutic PDC, CLR 131, utilizes iodine-131, a cytotoxic radioisotope, as its payload. CLR 131 is currently being evaluated
under an orphan drug designated Phase I clinical study in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. In addition, the
company plans to initiate a Phase II clinical study to assess efficacy in a range of B-cell malignancies in the first quarter of
2017. The company is also developing PDCs for targeted delivery of chemotherapeutics such as paclitaxel (CLR 1603-PTX), a preclinical
stage product candidate, and plans to expand its PDC chemotherapeutic pipeline through both in-house and collaborative R&amp;D
efforts. For more information please visit www.cellectar.com.</P>
