Health sciences company PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE:
PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) expects to make promising progress in the
research and development of a number of exciting products in 2018, according to
the company’s chairman, CEO and President Stephen Van Deventer in an audio
interview (http://ibn.fm/1SVjY).
He explained that, while pharmaceutical and nutraceutical companies are
well-established, there is a relatively untapped $3.8 trillion a year industry
in preventative medicine. Van Deventer said, “We coined the word
‘PreveCeutical’ for preventive medicine, which would be a combination of
pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals, but in the direction of preventive health.”
PreveCeutical is involved in researching and developing
products aimed at preventing ailments before they start, thus improving
people’s lifestyles. It is currently working on a number of promising projects,
including Sol-gel, an innovative cannabidiol-based nose to brain delivery
system being developed to give relief from epileptic seizures, pain,
inflammation and other neurological conditions.
Van Deventer added, “As you’ve seen on YouTube (…), these
people that have seizures, they take some cannabis oil and the seizures go
away. Well, that’s not preventing; that’s actually stopping a seizure. So, we
can now take these cannabinoids and infuse them to our Sol-gel, and people
[can] take it once a week because it will sit in your mucosa and slowly
time-release over one week. We can now get cannabinoids in your system and
prevent these seizures from happening.”
The PreveCeutical CEO also spoke about other promising
products in the company’s pipeline, including a powerful, non-addictive pain
reliever and gene therapy to possibly prevent type 2 diabetes and obesity. The
non-addictive pain reliever will be designed to “be stronger than morphine or
any of the other opioids out there,” Van Deventer said. “However, it will have
a few key elements: one, you can’t get high; two, you cannot create tolerance
to it; and three, you cannot get addicted to it.”
He said that the company’s researchers, led by Chief
Research Officer Harry Parekh, are keen for these life-changing technologies to
be available to the mass market. While the cost of gene therapy can run into
millions of dollars, Van Deventer said, “We hope to be able to deliver these
gene therapies for thousands of dollars. You can have a few thousand dollars,
rather than half a million or millions of dollars.”
Describing milestones for the near future, Van Deventer
explained that PreveCeutical is planning some strategic acquisitions. “It would
be nice to acquire some assets that are commercially viable now and start
generating some revenues.”
The company is looking forward to releasing promising
results on its research and development projects by the end of 2018.
