TORONTO, CANADA — (May 29, 2018) – Antibe Therapeutics Inc. (“Antibe” or the “Company”) (TSXV: ATE, OTCQB: ATBPF) is pleased to announce that its Chief Scientific Officer, John Wallace, will deliver a lecture at the 5th World Congress on Hydrogen Sulfide in Biology and Medicine. The conference is being held at the Intercontinental Yorkville Hotel in Toronto, Canada from May 31st to June 3rd, 2018.
Hydrogen sulfide is produced and utilized throughout the body, serving as an anti-inflammatory agent and signaling molecule. The therapeutic potential of hydrogen sulfide is gaining interest given that inflammation is at the root of many diseases, including degenerative diseases, digestive disorders and cancer. The conference will highlight the most recent advances in scientific and medical research of hydrogen sulfide, including Antibe’s novel platform of hydrogen sulfide-releasing drugs for the treatment of pain and inflammation.
The conference will include lectures from leading experts from around the world. John Wallace’s lecture will focus on the clinical development program for Antibe’s lead drug, ATB-346, a novel analgesic for the safe treatment of chronic pain and inflammation.
The proceedings of the conference will be published in The British Journal of Pharmacology.
