 Red White & Bloom (CSE: RWB) (OTCQX: RWBYF), a multistate cannabis operator and house of premium brands, together with its RWB Michigan LLC wholly owned subsidiary, today announced the debut of Platinum Vape(TM) (“PV”) Live Resin in Michigan. Previously available only in California and Oklahoma, PV Live Resin will soon be in the nearly 400 Michigan dispensaries that now carry Platinum products. “As promised, the Red White & Bloom team is introducing a steady stream of new products and consumption options to satisfy consumer demand in the rapidly growing Michigan cannabis market,” said Brad Rogers, Red White & Bloom chairman and CEO. “In the U.S., live resin sales grew 86% since 2020, as reported by Greentank*. We believe this is just the tip of the iceberg for the live resin opportunity, since so many new cannabis consumers are totally unfamiliar with live resin and migrate to it once they learn more about cannabis and discover live resins’ many advantages.”

PlantX Life Inc. (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) Inks Retail Partnership with BESTIES Vegan Paradise to Strengthen its Retail Footprint and Product Offering

 

  • The partnership will see the rebranding of XMarket brick-and-mortar stores in Venice, and Hillcrest, California, under the BESTIES brand
  • PlantX is confident that its partnership with BESTIES will accelerate the already significant growth for PlantX
  • In the first month of the rebrand, PlantX posted a 30% growth in sales revenue

Over the past year, PlantX Life (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) has embarked on an aggressive expansion campaign to strengthen its retail footprint and bring its products and services closer to consumers. This has seen the opening of various XMarket brick-and-mortar stores in strategic locations, the launch of shop-in-shops within Hudson’s Bay locations, and the acquisition of key brands in the vegan space.

In a move that seeks to strengthen its presence in this industry further, PlantX has just announced its retail partnership with BESTIES Vegan Paradise. BESTIES is a leading enterprise in the plant-based space, providing a platform for independent, vegan businesses to contribute to expanding the vegan community (https://ibn.fm/yX9aU).

Launched in 2019 by Asia Phoenix and Matt Fontana, BESTIES has grown into one of the key movers in the plant-based space. Through its innovation and its push to enable a plant-based lifestyle among consumers, it has been awarded “Best Grocery Store” in the VegNews Veggie Awards for two consecutive years. PlantX is confident that this partnership will further both companies’ goals to propel plant-based accessibility for all.

“Both PlantX and I, personally, are committed to the values and ethics that Asia, Matt, and the BESTIES brand have come to epitomize in the vegan community,” noted Sean Dollinger, the Founder of PlantX.

“This partnership will no doubt accelerate the already massive growth for PlantX as we confirm our commitment to those values and cement our place as a leader in the ethical vegan marketplace,” he added.

This collaboration with BESTIES has seen PlantX begin redesigning and rebranding its XMarket brick-and-mortar stores in Venice, California, and Hillcrest, California, under the BESTIES brand. In addition, these locations will stock BESTIES branded products such as vegan soft serve. They will also allow orders placed on its e-commerce stores, with same-day deliveries across Los Angeles and San Diego.

“We are very thankful to be working so closely with the founders of BESTIES, Matt Fontana and Asia Phoenix, who recognize PlantX as a leader in the vegan space,” said Lorne Rapkin, the Chief Executive officer (“CEO”) of PlantX.

“With the knowledge that they too, are industry leaders and want to join forces to roll out their brand with our support is very powerful,” he added.

Following this partnership, PlantX has reported an additional 30% in sales revenue for the first month since the Venice location was rebranded to reflect the BESTIES model. In addition, the company’s management is confident that sales will continue increasing, having tapped into a more recognized brand in the plant-based space.

CNS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) Reiterates Commitment to Operational Excellence, Advancing Berubicin Recognition

 

  • In a video message to shareholders, CEO John Climaco detailed the operational and clinical progress made by lead drug candidate Berubicin despite market volatility and share price fluctuations
  • CNS is currently enrolling patients into a potentially pivotal global drug trial of Berubicin for recurrent glioblastoma multiforme
  • Interim analysis of the trial is currently expected as early as the first quarter of 2023, once 30-50% of trial patients have been on the study for six months

CNS Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CNSP), a clinical-stage biotech company specializing in developing novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system, has released a video to its shareholders that reiterates the operational and clinical progress of its lead drug candidate, Berubicin. The video features CNS CEO John Climaco and addresses the recent share price activity (https://ibn.fm/Z40Gw).

“The divergence that exists between our operational strength and share price is top of mind for myself and the whole team at CNS Pharmaceuticals. As a shareholder of CNS Pharma, I share in the frustrations as it pertains to the share price and fluctuation in the market – both of which are things out of our control,” Climaco said in his video message. “However, as the CEO, what I do have control over is executing on the day-to-day operations, which I want to reiterate and emphasize have simply never been stronger.”

Climaco went on to detail the company’s operational strengths, including the fact that it continues to enroll patients in its potentially pivotal global study of Berubicin in the treatment of adult glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”). “We have the leading minds in the field around the world working on this trial with us, and we have encouraging ongoing dialogue with the FDA to ensure that our potentially pivotal trial continues to represent the state-of-the-art in the field,” he said.

The CNS CEO also underlined that his company remains committed to continuing to execute its operational excellence to drive recognition in the market of Berubicin and its immense potential for patients – the key driver for ultimately generating shareholder value and tremendous hope for GBM patients worldwide. “We put our heads down every day and continue to charge forward in our mission to change the game in glioblastoma via Berubicin,” Climaco added.

The video comes days after the company released its full-year 2021 financial results and corporate update, highlighting key milestones during the previous year, including (https://ibn.fm/Lb1r3):

  • May 2021 – Beginning of patient enrollment for a potentially pivotal global study evaluating the efficacy of Berubicin for adult recurring GBM
  • June 2021 – Granting of Fast Track Designation by the FDA for recurrent GBM treatment with Berubicin
  • September 2021 – First patients from potentially pivotal study dosed with Berubicin
  • December 2021 – Approval from “swissethics,” the umbrella organization of the Ethics Committee (“EC”) in Switzerland, for the potentially pivotal study of Berubicin for treatment of recurrent GBM to proceed in Switzerland
  • January 2022 – Announcement of $11.5 million private placement, priced at the market under NASDAQ rules

CNS plans to expand the potentially pivotal study of Berubicin in recurrent GBM into additional countries and complete the enrollment needed for the interim analysis of the study within the year. The interim analysis of the trial will occur when 30-50% of the total expected patients have been on the study for at least six months, which is anticipated during the first half of 2023.

Berubicin is a novel anthracycline and the first that appears to cross the blood-brain barrier. It is currently in development for the treatment of a number of serious brain and oncology indications. The first trial of the drug was initiated by Reata Pharmaceuticals over 16 years ago. It resulted in one patient surviving cancer-free, and two others reporting a reduction in tumor size of up to 80%.

MissionIRNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp.’s (NASDAQ: LEXX) 24th Patent Sets the Stage for New Market Opportunities in Australia

 Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, celebrated the receipt of its 24th granted patent entitled “Compositions Infused with Nicotine Compounds and Methods of Use Thereof.” Granted in Australia, this is the first patent awarded from the company’s 8th patent family. “The new patent expands on the company’s international IP rights to apply DehydraTECH(TM) technology to most forms of nicotine, namely sprays, gums, lozenges, pouches, capsules, tablets, and pills. It also covers multiple disparate forms of nicotine, including polymer resins of nicotine, freebase nicotine and other nicotine complexes,” reads a recent article. Prior to the award of the 24th patent, Lexaria already had a patent granted in Australia to use DehydraTECH-processed cannabidiol (“CBD”) to potentially treat heart disease. “Thus, the new Australian patent covering the use of DehydraTECH-nicotine builds on the existing IP protection there and sets the stage for the company to exploit nicotine- and CBD-oriented opportunities within this market.”
