TODAY: Gb Sciences Describes Drug Development Progress in Pharma’s Almanac Journal Article
Gb Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB:GBLX), a leading plant-inspired, biopharmaceutical research and drug development company, describes their progress towards achieving significant milestones in their drug development pipeline in an article published in the journal Pharma's Almanac today at https://www.pharmasalmanac.com/articles/unlocking-the-therapeutic-potential-of-plant-inspired-minimum-essential-mixtures.
"Gb Sciences is focusing considerable resources on bringing our lead Parkinson's disease formulations to the clinic with promising results already obtained during the formulation of Oral Dissolving Tablets containing our active ingredients for use in human clinical trials," said Dr. Andrea Small-Howard, President, Chief Science Officer, and Director of Gb Sciences. "We have new data validating the efficacy of our novel anxiety formulations in an animal model, as well as new data demonstrating the improved stability of our oral nanoparticle-encapsulated chronic pain formulations based on newly-adopted manufacturing control processes."
The full article entitled "Unlocking the Therapeutic Potential of Plant-Inspired Minimum Essential Mixtures" also provides some context for their recent drug development successes by discussing Gb Sciences' evolution from a cannabis company to a plant-inspired biopharmaceutical company and what makes their drug development approach truly unique. With conventional drug discovery efforts failing to deliver on some critical medical needs, such as non-opioid treatments for chronic pain, there may be value in exploring plants associated with traditional medicines to discover new drug molecules and simplified mixtures. Gb Sciences is connecting plant-based medicine with modern in silico drug discovery tools, leveraging a unique AI-enabled platform to mine plant species and compounds to uncover minimum essential mixtures of molecules with therapeutic benefits and reduced side effect profiles.

South Korea’s CD BIO Seeks Clinical Trial, FDA Registration for Its VOCs Biosensing Kit...
LOS ANGELES - September 5, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Korean technicians announced on the 30th that they have developed a diagnostic device that diagnoses lung cancer from breathing tests. They have plans to submit the device for U.S. FDA approval and conduct further clinical trials.
To reduce the death rate that is increasing due to cancer, Korean company CD BIO's CEO, Baek Kyung-jin, has developed a diagnostic device VOCs Biosensing Kit that detects lung cancer and various cancers at an early stage with a simple breathing test.
Globalian, a company that opens up export opportunities and conducts export voucher programs with support from the Korean Academy of Clinical Health and the Korean government, has initiated FDA registration and the clinical trial process for CD BIO's VOCs Biosensing Kit through an export voucher program, collaborating with International Licensing Research Solutions, LLC (ILRS) and American Technology Clinical Solutions, Inc. (ATCS). ILRS and ATCS are collaborating, acting as U.S. agents for CD BIO, overseeing all aspects of international marketing.
The clinical trial on the effectiveness of detecting lung cancer and various cancers at an early stage with a simple breathing test was successful, and the thesis presentation was conducted. Now, the company is preparing for a clinical trial with a credible institution for follow-up tests, and at the same time planning to submit for FDA review in the United States in order to advance in the markets in the United States.
CD BIO's CEO, Baek Kyung-jin, said, "Through this clinical trial and the U.S. FDA [review] process, we will play the role of a tool to save people by combining the talents that God has given us with technology. It is the path that I have been praying for until now, and I believe that he will lead me in the future."
Next, he thanked all the technical staff and researchers who participated in the development and said that he will obtain the sober judgment and clear technology direction of the FDA.
