Canurta is thrilled about its project with Applied Pharmaceutical Innovation (API). The preliminary data validates that our cannflavins have activity that may eventually help treat or prevent indications such as affect Systemic Chronic Inflammation, Chronic Pain, Arthritic issues, various Brain Health and Age-Related diseases, and, most surprisingly, COVID-19. We are extremely excited to continue learning about what these molecules can do and develop our target product pipeline and initial lead candidate product that can be taken into clinical study.
