About Avicena Group, Inc.:

The Avicena Group, Inc. is a late stage, revenue generating biotechnology company focused on developing products based on its proprietary understanding of the regulation of cellular energy processes. The company’s core technologies, supported by a robust IP portfolio, have broad applications in both pharmaceuticals and dermaceuticals. Avicena’s pharmaceutical program centers on rare neurological disorders (orphan diseases). The company is currently analyzing data from its Phase IIb/ III trial in ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s Disease). Near term, Avicena intends to initiate both a Phase III trial in Huntington’s Disease and a Phase III trial in Parkinson’s Disease. Avicena presently derives revenue from the sale of proprietary ingredients to skin care manufacturers. Furthermore, the company is developing a proprietary line of therapeutic skin care products. Unlike traditional biotechnology companies, Avicena’s clinical programs are largely funded by government and non-profit organizations.
