Propanc Biopharma’s Joint Research Partnership with the Universities of Jaén and Granada Enters 13th Year
The company’s lead product candidate, PRP, has advanced to a First-In-Human clinical trial. Plans are underway to create a backup clinical product candidate from the POP1 partnership research and drug discovery initiative under the long-term collaboration with the universities and also cooperate with contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) and contract research organizations (CROs).
Since its inception, the research collaboration has aided the company’s drug development efforts from discovery through clinical-stage, elucidating the anti-cancer impacts of proenzymes, particularly against cancer stem cells (CSCs), gene expression changes related to metastasis and oncogenesis in CSCs, therefore stopping cancer spread. So, PPCB is worth watching.

“The joint research partnership with the Universities of Jaén and Granada has been critical for the advancement of our drug development program at Propanc Biopharma,” said Dr. Julian Kenyon. “I am grateful for their tireless efforts, led by Professor Perán, supported by Professor Marchal, whose capabilities and expertise in the field are impressive. As we advance towards our First-In-Human study in advanced cancer patients for our lead product candidate, PRP, I am excited about our ongoing efforts to further elucidate the effects of proenzymes and identify any additional patentable discoveries.
