Abstract

The company has designed drugs that are particularly targeted for the Coronavirus and have demonstrated that they are capable of effectively and safely destroy the virus' genome. The Biological Institute in Nes Ziona is currently demonstrating the effiency of the drug in cells infected by the virus as part of an agreement signed with the Company and additional laboratories around the world have received the drugs to be used in trials. Augmanity Nano will accelerate the production process and the clinical trials, so the drug can commence trials with Israeli patients this coming summer. Based on the data from these trials, the Company will be able to establish a platform that will provide a quick solution to the outbreak of similar pandemics in the future.
