Propanc Biopharma’s Intellectual Property Portfolio Undergoes Rapid Growth

“Our IP portfolio is a world leader in the field of administration of proenzymes for the treatment and prevention of metastatic cancer. IP is the cornerstone of any biotech company, and places us in a strong position to unlock significant value, as we plan to progress into a First-In-Human study and then hopefully towards proof of concept in a specific cancer indication, where we will then look at possible licensing opportunities,” said Dr. Julian Kenyon, Propanc’s Chief Scientific Officer. “We are firmly of the opinion that our current market value does not truly reflect the advancement of our lead product, PRP, or its true potential as a breakthrough, long term treatment for aggressive and fast spreading cancers from solid tumors by targeting and eradicating cancer stem cells.”

Propanc has a total of four patent families covering the use of proenzymes for treating cancer via a combination of trypsinogen and/or chymotrypsinogen pancreatic proenzymes, which includes Propanc’s lead product candidate, PRP. The IP portfolio includes composition of matter claims and a method of treatment to eradicate cancer stem cells. Further applications are also expected relating to the formulation and methods of use, as well as research programs with its joint research partners designed to further optimize the quality, safety and performance of PRP.
