$NVLX - Medical Marijuana Sciences' Dr. Mark L. Rabe Speaks at ASA Medical Cannabis Unity Conference in Washington DC SILVER SPRING, Md., April 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medical Marijuana Sciences, Inc., a subsidiary of Nuvilex, Inc. (OTCQB:NVLX), a clinical-stage international biotechnology company providing cell and gene therapy solutions for the treatment of diseases, reported today that Dr. Mark L. Rabe's presentation at the National Medical Cannabis Unity Conference, held this past weekend in Washington DC, prompted numerous questions and a lively discussion on Nuvilex's proprietary Cell-in-a-Box® platform and how Medical Marijuana Sciences is working to combine it with the cancer-fighting properties of cannabinoids. The conference, hosted by Americans for Safe Access (ASA) and titled, "Navigating Medicinal Cannabis in the Mainstream," was attended by several hundred medical marijuana patients, parents of pediatric patients, educators, veterans, physicians, and other individuals calling for a stronger commitment to the safe, medicinal use of cannabis. "It was a profound and humbling experience to see the dedication, commitment and sacrifice put forth by the members and sponsors of the ASA. This group of individuals has fought tirelessly to provide patients with safe access to cannabis-based medicine," said Dr. Rabe. "It was also encouraging to hear recently from the federal government comments about the potential of reclassifying or declassifying cannabis from its present status, which would provide the opportunity to advance scientific research and further the development of potentially life-saving cannabinoid-based therapies." Dr. Rabe's presentation, "Targeted Cannabinoid-based Chemotherapy Utilizing Cell-in-a-Box® Technology," addressed new research that Medical Marijuana Sciences is undertaking in the fight against pancreatic and brain cancers and highlighted how further research is needed to help prevent the tens of thousands of deaths that occur each year as a result of these two diseases. "Dr. Rabe is Chairman of Medical Marijuana Sciences' Scientific Advisory Board and is a well-respected veteran in the discussion of medical marijuana. His insight on the potential use of cannabinoids, particularly in combination with our parent company's Cell-in-a-Box® technology to treat these difficult cancers, has proven vital to our evolution as a company," said Tim Matula, President of Medical Marijuana Sciences. "Recent surveys have demonstrated that oncologists, among other top medical practitioners, have a keen interest in the potential use of cannabinoids both in compassionate care and in the fight against cancer and other deadly diseases; many have spoken and continue to speak openly about its decriminalization and the possible research applications that could result." About Medical Marijuana Sciences: Medical Marijuana Sciences, Inc. is the newest wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuvilex, Inc. It was established in early 2013 with the initial mission to develop treatments based on constituents of cannabis for two of the most serious and deadly forms of cancer, namely brain and pancreatic cancers. www.stockwatch.com/News/Item.aspx?bid=U-i1104909-U%3aLIVE-20140408&symbol=LIVE®ion=U |

$NVLX - Nuvilex Engages ViruSure to Establish Cell Banks for Phase 2b Clinical Trials in Pancreatic Cancer SILVER SPRING, Md., April 10, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nuvilex, Inc. (OTCQB:NVLX), a clinical-stage international biotechnology company providing cell and gene therapy solutions for the treatment of diseases, reported today that it has signed a Master Services Agreement with ViruSure GmbH, located in Vienna, Austria, to develop and maintain Master, Working and End of Production Cell Banks. These cell banks are necessary steps in the production of the cells to be encapsulated using the Cell-in-a-Box® technology for Nuvilex's Phase 2b clinical trials in advanced, inoperable pancreatic cancer to be conducted in Australia. "ViruSure has previous experience in handling the exact cell line that will be used in our Phase 2b clinical trials, which was a major factor in Nuvilex selecting ViruSure for this important step in our preparations for these trials," said Kenneth L. Waggoner, CEO and President of Nuvilex. "This decision was further supported by our on-site inspection of the ViruSure facilities and the excellent historical relationships between ViruSure's key personnel with our partners at Austrianova. ViruSure has years of experience in producing and maintaining cell banks and is an industry leader in this arena." "We are delighted to be partnering with Nuvilex on such an important project and in helping to bring this much needed therapy for such a devastating disease as pancreatic cancer to the clinic," stated Andy Bailey, CEO and co-founder of ViruSure. The cells that will make up the Master, Working and End of Production Cell Banks will be those that convert the anticancer drug ifosfamide into its cancer-killing form. These therapeutic cells will be shipped to ViruSure for propagation. First a Master Cell Bank will be established where aliquots of cells will be stored frozen. Cells from the Master Cell Bank will be propagated to make up the large number of cells that will comprise the Working Cell Bank. Ultimately, cells from the Working Cell Bank will be encapsulated using the Cell-in-a-Box® live cell encapsulation technology. An End of Production Cell Bank will then be made from the final product for quality control purposes. The encapsulated cell product, together with ifosfamide, forms Nuvilex's treatment for pancreatic cancer. www.stockwatch.com/News/Item.aspx?bid=U-z10076266-U%3aNVLX-20140410&symbol=NVLX®ion=U |
