Animal Testing Facilities Selected for SVAP Nano Nitric Oxide Dry Powder Inhaler as Potential COVID-19 Treatment
LOCUST VALLEY, NY / ACCESSWIRE / July 13, 2020 / Standard Vape Corporation (OTC PINK:SVAP) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary Neo-Virucide, Inc. (NVI) (www.neovirucide.com) and the Licensor of the NanoNOx™ technology from NMB Therapeutics, Inc.(NMB) have selected Bioneeds India Private Limited, a Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) (FDA compliant) facility in Tumkur, India (www.bioneeds.in) to conduct animal studies of NanoNOxTM a new and innovative approach to delivering Nitric Oxide to COVID-19 patients. Nitric Oxide is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in gas form to treat Hypertension. The NanoNOxTM compound developed by NMB and licensed for worldwide distribution to NVI, the SVAP subsidiary, uses Nano technology to encapsulate Nitric Oxide in a dry powder form that can be inhaled through a conventional inhaler, which will then have a controlled release of nitric oxide deep inside the lungs upon contact with moisture in the lung tissue. We believe that this approach will remove the need for gas tanks, expensive competing technology and provide a portable outpatient friendly treatment approach for mild to moderate COVID-19 cases.
The NMB board deemed progress satisfactory for animal trials, costs of which will be paid by NVI, as a first step to a preIND contact with the FDA. NMB and SVAP would welcome approaches from anyone in the medical or scientific communities who may be able to assist going forward with this new approach. Scientific papers regarding the use of Nano particles and previous studies are available at www.neovirucide.com.
