Odyssey Group International Appearance on “Banfield”

VP of Drug Development, Jake VanLandingham, along with members of its Sports Advisory Board (SAB), including NFL legends Brett Favre, Kurt Warner and Mark Rypien will discuss the need for a treatment for concussion and provide an overview of the Company’s drug candidate PRV-002, a novel neurosteroid being developed for the treatment of concussion. The SAB supports Odyssey’s outreach efforts to enhance public awareness of concussion as well as the need for an FDA approved therapy. It is estimated that 15% of individuals that sustain a concussion develop long term health deficiencies. Last month the Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine that 1/3 of youth who sustain a concussion develop a mental health issue.

About PRV-002

PRV-002 is a fully synthetic non-naturally occurring neurosteroid being developed for the treatment of mTBI (concussion). In preclinical studies, PRV-002 has demonstrated equivalent, if not superior, neuroprotective effects compared to related neurosteroids. Animal models of concussion demonstrated that PRV-002 reduces the behavioral pathology associated with brain injury symptoms such as memory impairment, anxiety, and motor/sensory performance. Additionally, PRV-002 is lipophilic and can easily cross the blood-brain barrier to rapidly eliminate swelling, oxidative stress and inflammation in the brain while restoring proper blood flow.
