PreveCeutical Announces Stability Data from CBD Sol-gel Product Development Program
Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – July 6, 2020) – PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) (« PreveCeutical »), is pleased to announce successful results from its Cannabinoid sol-gel product development program.
We have successfully conducted a three-month physico-chemical stability test on cannabinoid sol-gel formulations designed for nose-to-brain (« NTB ») delivery.
The physical and chemical stability of formulated cannabinoid components was characterized at time points during three months of cold storage (2-8ºC) as well as room temperature storage. There was minimal indication of physical or chemical instability of the cannabinoid formulation over the study period. The Company will conduct a further stability study program, as and when required by the regulatory authorities, and in accordance with the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (« ICH »).
Quality evaluation testing of cannabis extracts was conducted using high-performance liquid chromatography (« HPLC ») and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (« LC-MS ») profiles, to generate chemical fingerprints that were later qualified, validated and verified using analytical grade cannabinoid standards. Based on the before and after HPLC testing, the study found that the cannabinoid content within the formulation generally remained within the study’s acceptance criteria.
Mr. Stephen Van Deventer, PreveCeutical’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, « We are very pleased with these results. With the increasing evidence of the clinical benefit of cannabinoids, our cannabinoid sol-gel solution aims to meet our study target. We plan to protect this IP and will be looking to work with a suitable partner and progressing through preclinical to clinical study development. »
