Organicell Completes Enrollment for its Expanded Access Trial to Treat COVID-19 Patients with Zofin™

MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$BPSR #COVID19–Organicell Regenerative Medicine, Inc. (OTCMKTS: BPSR), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of regenerative therapies, announced today that the company has completed enrollment for its U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted expanded access trial for Zofin for the treatment of COVID-19.

The expanded access protocol provided access to the investigational product, Zofin, for patients in outpatient and inpatient facilities infected with SARS-CoV-2 who have mild to moderate COVID-19 infection, or who are judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to moderate disease. The trial is being conducted at the United Memorial Medical Center in Houston, TX.

Analysis of initial trial data will begin in approximately seventy-five days, and the trial will conclude ninety-days after the last patient is dosed, which is expected sometime in the third quarter of this year.

“COVID-19 has affected the lives of millions of people over the last year and unfortunately will be with us for many years to come. Organicell is hoping to help patients that currently do not have an approved therapy. We are excited that the enrollment of patients in this trial is complete and we look forward to analyzing the data next quarter,” said Albert Mitrani, Chief Executive Officer of Organicell.

“My medical team, especially Dr. Cesar Barrera and Ms. Mariya Mohiuddin, and I are delighted to have the opportunity to participate in this clinical trial, which has the prospect of introducing a novel drug into the medical arsenal of COVID-19 therapeutics,” said Vincent Friedewald, MD, FACC, FACP, Primary Investigator at United Memorial Medical Center, Houston, TX.
