Propanc Biopharma to Present at the 10th Annual LD Micro Main Event
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/27/17 -- Propanc Biopharma Inc. (OTCQB: PPCB) ("Propanc Biopharma" or "the Company"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on development of new and proprietary treatments for cancer patients suffering from solid tumors such as pancreatic, ovarian and colorectal cancers, today announced that it will be presenting at the 10th annual LD Micro Main Event on Thursday, December 7th at 11:30 AM PST / 2:30 PM EST at the Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel in Los Angeles, CA. The LD Micro Main Event is the largest independent conference for small/microcap companies and will feature 240 presenting companies.
James Nathanielsz, Propanc Biopharma's Chief Executive Officer, will be presenting as well as meeting with investors to discuss the Company' operations and future plans, focusing on anticipated near term milestones as the Company advances its lead product, PRP, towards First-In-Human studies in 2018.
"I look forward to updating investors on our recent progress, including the completion of preclinical development for PRP, obtaining Orphan Drug Designation from the FDA for PRP's treatment of pancreatic cancer with a second ODD request filed for ovarian cancer pending, and its potential as a breakthrough product for many aggressive cancers," said James Nathanielsz, Propanc Biopharma's Chief Executive Officer. "In addition, I will be updating investors regarding our capital structure, balance sheet and plans for financing the clinical development of PRP, as well as the future expansion of our joint research program with our partner universities."
PRP is a solution for once-daily intravenous administration of a combination of two pancreatic proenzymes trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen. Currently progressing towards First-In-Human studies, PRP aims to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis from solid tumors. Eighty percent of all cancers are solid tumors and metastasis is the main cause of patient death from cancer. According to the World Health Organization, 8.2 million people died from cancer in 2012. Consequently, a report by IMS Health states innovative therapies are driving the global oncology market to meet demand, which is expected to reach $150 billion by 2020. The Company's initial target patient populations are pancreatic, ovarian and colorectal cancers, representing an estimated combined market segment of $14 billion in 2020, according to GBI Research.
