Vancouver, British Columbia: PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (the “Company” or “PreveCeutical”) (CSE: PREV, OTCQB: PRVCF, FSE: 18H), is pleased to announce the successful completion of its non-addictive analgesic program (“Analgesic Program”).
The Analgesic Program started in July 2018 to discover and develop peptide-based therapeutics for moderate to severe pain and inflammation. The Company has received the final research project report from UniQuest Pty Ltd. for this discovery program, which utilized a proprietary disulfide linker technology.
Further to the Company’s news release of September 8, 2020, the subsequent studies on the selected lead peptides focused on their clinically relevant pharmacokinetic (PK) properties. We are excited about the progression of the selected lead peptides and to move closer towards the next stages of drug development.
PreveCeutical’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Stephen Van Deventer, stated, “We are very happy with the results from this program which has identified some promising lead peptide candidates showing analgesic activity. Importantly, the most recent report provides a data-driven approach to further improve their pharmacokinetic properties. We are extremely excited to move this technology forward and will be working on progressing these lead peptides for further development ultimately towards IND.”
