TEL AVIV, Israel and BETHESDA, Maryland, Aug. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ —
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
I am pleased to announce that we have entered the second half of 2018 with strong momentum. Now that we have officially moved into our new state-of-the-art Cancer Screening Laboratory located in Rehovot, Israel we are poised for symbiotic scientific partnerships.
Both the company and our new Laboratory are broadly licensed by the Ministry of Health in Israel specifically for R&D on Cannabis. We see great potential in scientific collaborations with like-minded companies that are engaged in cannabinoid medicines and diagnostics. Currently, we are in the final stages of finalizing our agreement with a company engaged in ophthalmic disorders to develop a product to compete with Steroids in the ocular disease market.
Our team of scientists are diligently working to develop and expand our intellectual property portfolio. As such we are waiting for numerous approvals from various national level registrations on our Cannabinoid – Cancer screening patents.
The company is anticipating the final report from Prof. Gil Bar-Sela of Rambam Hospital from its clinical trial on cancer patients of our SR capsule for Cachexia and Anorexia, which is expected to be presented in the coming weeks/months. Dr. Bar-Sela is the Deputy Director of the Division of Oncology at Rambam Health Care Campus, Head of the Palliative and Supportive Oncology Unit, and Head of the service for Melanoma and Sarcoma patients.
Our Marketing PR/IR Team is in the process of rolling out new updated informational materials to give the public more insight into our current activities. An essential part of this effort is the process of revamping our website with much more detailed content and information alongside an extensive Investor Relations section. Some of these changes have already taken effect and we expect more to follow suit shortly. We are making a concerted effort to bring our message to light and tell our story to the world, as we are passionate about what we do, and want to spread that passion.
In the recent months, we have received significant media coverage.
