Core One Labs' Akome Move Psychedelic Drug Formulations to Next Stage of Development: Initiating Phase 2 Analysis of Therapeutic Potential

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 16, 2022 / Core One Labs Inc. (CSE:COOL), (OTCQB:CLABF), (Frankfurt:LD6, WKN:A3CSSU) (the "Company" or "Core One") is pleased to announce that following the receipt of very positive results during phase one ("Phase 1") pre-clinical development studies conducted by its wholly owned subsidiary Akome Biotech Ltd. ("Akome"), and their research partners, relating to the neuroactivities of its selected bioactive-compounds (the "Bio-compounds") (see Company press releases dated April 2, 2022, August 18, 2022 and August 19, 2022), the Company, through Akome has received interest from the Universitat de Barcelona ("University of Barcelona"), to move studies into phase two ("Phase 2") of the pre-clinical development continuum.

The results obtained from Akome and its research partners at Fundación Medina in Granada, Spain ("Medina"), Neuro-Zone Srl, ("Neuro-Zone") based in Bresso, Italy and the Universidad Complutense de Madrid ("Universidad Complutense"), during Phase 1 of pre-clinical development, clearly demonstrate that many of Akome's chosen bio-compounds have considerable potential to exert beneficial effects that could mitigate neurological deficits associated with many central nervous system disorders and mental health conditions such as Major Depressive Disorder ("Depression"), Stroke, Parkinson's Disease ("PD") and Alzheimer's Disease ("AD"). Furthermore, Akome's pharmacokinetic in-vivo studies have not presented any concerns with the metabolism, distribution, and elimination of the bio-compounds, and therefore support moving forward into the next stages of drug development.

In concert with the University of Barcelona, it is anticipated that Phase 2 development will be initiated in the coming weeks and will focus on evaluating the therapeutic potential of Akome's bio-compounds, alone and in conjunction with various psychedelic compounds, on the central nervous system, through the incorporation of live organism models. One model currently being considered as ideal for this purpose is the model of the nematode (worm) Caenorhabditis elegans.

Akome has conducted preliminary conversations with Dr Mercè Pallàs Lliberia and Dr. Christian Griñán Ferré from University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain who have extensive experience with the C. elegans model and have shown interest in collaborating with Akome to test its bio-compounds alone and in combination with other psychedelics.

"We are pleased to see our pre-clinical development studies for psychedelic drug formulations advance to phase 2. The positive results in phase 1 exhibited promising results and the next stage of the study will play a significant role as we look to progress towards viable drug formulas that could successfully target and mitigate health conditions such as Major Depressive Disorder, Stroke, Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease. Such a major breakthrough would further strengthen the company's image as a leading psychedelic developer and manufacturer in the industry," stated Joel Shacker, Core One CEO.
