Ø Agreement with a Montreal-based Company to Advance the Highly Promising Development of Adva-27a Anticancer Compound
On November 18th SBFM announced a collaboration agreement with a Montreal-based company for the purposes of advancing the development of the SBFM anticancer compound, Adva-27a. The goal of this collaboration is to develop and implement chemical synthesis procedures for Adva-27a and test the resulting material in various types of cancer cells grown in culture. Based on the cell culture results, the SBFM drug development partner will conduct mice studies in preparation for entry of Adva-27a into clinical trials. It is anticipated that the clinical trials will be for Stage IV pancreatic cancer indication and will be performed at McGill University's Jewish General Hospital in Montreal, Canada.
Ø Distribution of High Value Essential-9(TM) in Asia and the Far East
On November 10th SBFM announced an agreement with JOAH International Pte., Ltd., headquartered in Singapore, for distribution of Essential-9tm in Asia and the Far East.

Essential Amino Acids are 9 out of the 20 amino acids required for protein synthesis. Proteins are involved in all body functions - From the musculature and immune system to hormones and neurotransmitters. Like vitamins, Essential Amino Acids cannot be made by the human body and must be obtained through diet. Deficiency in one or more of the 9 Essential Amino Acids can lead to loss of muscle mass, chronic fatigue, weight gain, and weakened immune system. The SBFM Essential-9TM provides a balanced formula of all 9 Essential Amino Acids in free-form, ready to be absorbed.

Ø Sunshine Biopharma and the University of Georgia Team Up to Develop New and Vitally Needed Anti-Coronavirus Drug
On October 19th SBFM announced an agreement with the University of Georgia to advance the development of the company’s recently announced Anti-Coronavirus lead compound, SBFM-PL4. The goal of this cutting-edge collaboration is to develop SBFM-PL4, a protease inhibitor, as a treatment for Coronavirus infections. This new treatment is based on the technology described in recently filed SBFM patent application covering small molecules which can be used to treat Coronavirus infections. Sunshine's SBFM-PL4, will be put through a series of in vitro tests to evaluate its specific inhibitory activity against the SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease (PLpro), one of two Coronavirus encoded proteases essential for viral replication. Following the initial in vitro studies, SBFM-PL4 will be moved forward to the cell culture testing stage and assessment in Coronavirus infected mice before entering human clinical trials.
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the causative agent of COVID-19, the current pandemic. There are currently no drugs that can effectively arrest replication of the virus in people who have contracted the illness. On May 22nd SBFM filed a provisional patent application for a library of molecules which were designed to inhibit the Coronavirus proteases, thus shutting down the ability of the virus to multiply and cause illness.
