Virogentics Inc. Announces Pilot Clinical Trial of ITV-1 at National Center for Endocrinology in Bulgaria and Expansion of Nutraceutical Line

COLLEGE STATION, TX / ACCESSWIRE / May 8, 2023 / Enzolytics, Inc. (OTC PINK:ENZC) (https://enzolytics.com/).

Enzolytics, Inc. (the "Company" or "ENZC"), a drug development biotech company, announced that the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Virogenetics (VIRO), will be conducting a pilot clinical trial test for the state owned Bulgarian National Center for Endocrinology to gauge the effectiveness of the ITV-1 immunotherapy on Diabetes.

To facilitate the transition from laboratory production to standardized industrial production at the VetProm-Danson facility in Bulgaria, VIRO purchased a flow machine for the sterile filling of the ITV-1 treatment into individual vials. At the VetProm facility, VIRO recently fulfilled the initial order for the immunotherapy treatment for distribution to the participating hospitals in Africa that are scheduled for delivery on May 10, 2023. The treatments are administered by intramuscular injection twice a week over two eight-week cycles with a one week break between cycles. Results from this initial administration of ITV-1 to HIV patients is expected by late fall of this year.

Further, after the initial report on the Toxicity of ITV-1, the VIRO team, working in close cooperation with the European Medicine Agency ("EMA") to determine the fastest and most effective path to registration of ITV-1 in Europe, is now progressing to the study on pharmacokinetics. This study will be conducted by the German company, Korporativ Klinik Drug Research and Development. The methodology for this research will be done on volunteer patients using pl ELAZA standards, as recommended by the EMA, in a specialized laboratory in Germany. VIRO produced several batches of ITV-1 at the Vetprom-Danson plant using standardized industrial production methods. Vials from this batch are being analyzed at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences to determine protein concentration, native enzyme concentration and peptide analysis, and amino acid sequence.

Once this study is complete, VIRO will be able to complete the cycle to fulfill the manufacturing conditions for production of the validation orders in mid-September of this year. Once manufacturing is complete the clinical trials for module 3 for the EMA permitting will begin in Germany. When Module 3 is complete, the Company will formulate the requirements for modules 4 and 5 for registration in Europe.

Over the last two years, Virogentics' Virognetic's research and development team, headed by Harry and Diana Zhabilov and supported by the medical consultants Dr. Lachezar Ivanov, Prof. Dolashka, Dr. V. Topalova, and S. Stoev the executive director of the Vetprom manufacturing facility, part of the French concern Danson, have made great strides with the GMP production of ITV-1 as well as the FDA registered nutraceutical food supplement IPF Immune.

IPF Immune's recent introduction into the U.S. market has been met with great enthusiasm, quickly selling out. Our product is sold over multiple on-line sites including Amazon and Wal-Mart. The Company has received many testimonials from users of IPF stating that they, individually, have experienced positive effects from IPF's use on their bodies immune system. In response to the success of IPF Immune in the US market, VIRO has received inquiries from several European countries including Spain, Germany, Romania, Greece, and Bulgaria and is now in the process of registering IPF Immune in Europe.

VIRO is also in the process of completing the application with the United Stated Federal Drug Administration (the "FDA") for two new additional nutraceutical products developed by Dr. Lachezar Ivanov. The products will be for detoxification of the brain and detoxification of the liver. The liver detox is currently registered and being sold in Bulgaria. The brain detox initial registration application will be filed with the FDA and subject to its approval.

Harry Zhabilov, CSO of VIRO and ENZC stated, "I am proud of the success and progress that the VIRO Team has brought to ENZC through the two products currently being manufactured and developed in Bulgaria. With the expansion of the nutraceutical product line and our first administration of the ITV-1 immunotherapy in Africa, we believe that in the last half of 2023, great strides will be made toward fulfilling my vision for the ITV-1 family of products. The potential of additional funding through the previously discussed SPAC transaction will increase the opportunities for further product development especially with the Multiple Sclerosis application patent being developed."
