PPCB Propanc Biopharma Inc (PK)

MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2015 / Propanc Health Group Corporation (OTCQB: PPCH) ("Propanc" or "the Company"), an emerging healthcare company focusing on development of new and proprietary treatments for cancer patients suffering from pancreatic and colorectal cancers, today announced that the Company's Australian patent application covering its lead product PRP was accepted recently by the Australian Patent Office.

The Australian patent application describes a pharmaceutical composition for treating cancer comprising the proenzymes trypsinogen and/or chymotrypsinogen, as well as several other active agents disclosed in the patent.

Importantly, claims directed to compositions, as well as method of treatment claims, were accepted by the Australian Patent Office. This is considered a great result as composition claims are often difficult to patent and are considered more valuable commercially.

Propanc's lead patent application is now accepted or granted in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, and under examination in key global regions such as the United States and European Union. The Company expects the recent acceptance in Australia to support ongoing applications in other territories under examination.

Propanc aims to fast track the development of proenzyme related oncology products into clinical trials for colorectal and pancreatic tumors initially. According to Global Analyst Reports, the world market for colorectal cancer is expected to reach $8.8 billion by 2020 and the global pancreatic cancer market is projected to exceed $1.2 billion by the year 2015.

"The Propanc management team are very pleased with our recent patent acceptance in Australia," said James Nathanielsz, Propanc's Chief Executive Officer. "The combined market for pancreatic and colorectal cancers is around ten billion dollars and we believe PRP could make a real difference for patients suffering from these diseases. Establishing a first class intellectual property portfolio is the cornerstone for supporting this vision."
