NovAccess Global Secures Worldwide Rights to Approved Patent

Provides advancement for its immunotherapy technology against brain tumors into human clinical trials

CLEVELAND, OH / ACCESSWIRE / November 18, 2020 / NovAccess Global Inc. (OTC PINK:XSNX) (the "Company" or "NovAccess"), a cancer therapeutics company with operations in biotechnology is thrilled to announce that it has an unlimited use license to an approved US Patent # 9764014, which was obtained in September 2020 when NovAccess acquired StemVax Therapeutics. The structure of the technology transfer agreement in place is commensurate with other significant technology transfers in the pharmaceutical industry, and affords NovAccess the commercial benefits of the technology going forward.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common adult brain tumor with less than a 15-month median survival and no cure. Despite advances in chemotherapy and radiation therapy over the last 30-40 years, there has been no significant improvement in survival time for GBM patients. Currently, there is no immunotherapy for treating brain tumor patients available in the market. NovAccess Global is very excited about the potential of this novel approach to treating brain cancer through the license.

The technology was initially developed at the Department of Neurosurgery, at a major California research hospital by Dr. Dwain Irvin, NovAccess Chief Executive Officer, a Research Scientist and Assistant Professor (2005-2013) at the hospital at that time. Dr. Chris Wheeler, President of StemVax Therapeutics Inc., will lead the filing of an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA to obtain approval for starting human clinical trials. Dr. Wheeler's over 20 years' experience and involvement in developing immunotherapy protocols to treat brain cancer, including multiple filed patents and significant contribution to StemVax IP, brings established experience, added expertise, and team cohesiveness to StemVax Therapeutics.
