Wellbeing Digital Sciences Reveals Recent Achievements by Its KGK Science Subsidiary
02 Februar 2022 - 9:00AM
Wellbeing Digital Sciences Inc. (“Wellbeing” or the
“Company”) (NEO: MEDI) (OTC: KONEF) (Frankfurt: MY0), an
evidence-based healthcare company focused on innovative clinical
solutions, artificial intelligence-powered digital therapeutics and
contract research, is pleased to provide a corporate update
highlighting the various achievements of its wholly owned
subsidiary, KGK Science Inc., (“
KGK” or the
“
CRO”).
Recapping some of 2021’s highlights, KGK won
contracts for 11 clinical trial service projects and 5 medical
writing projects. Despite the restrictions associated with the
COVID-19 pandemic, KGK was able to complete the conduct of 9
clinical trials and advanced several others towards completion.
KGK’s Regulatory Division completed 19 consulting projects for
clients in the nutraceutical, cannabis and psychedelic spheres. KGK
received approvals for eight Product License Applications for
Natural Health Products, acknowledgement letters for four unique
New Dietary Ingredient Notifications and expert panel consensus
that three food ingredients possess Generally Recognized As Safe
status. Representatives of KGK were asked to be featured speakers
at the large Wonderland, Psychedelic Capital and Lift & Co.
events, while the CRO was also a major sponsor of the Miami-based
Wonderland conference.
For 2022, the CRO expects to experience
significant growth based on current client interest in new projects
and requests for proposals, including a substantial expansion in
psychedelics-related work. KGK is currently working on psychedelic
drug projects with eight distinct clients, managing four clinical
trials including a Phase 1 study of a proprietary psilocybin
extract in healthy adults, and working with an Ontario-based
contract manufacturer to provide a joint solution for the
production and study of psychedelic compounds. Additionally, the
CRO is working on 15 Product License Applications submissions for
Health Canada; seven pharmaceutical and 20 nutraceutical
clinical trials, including two cannabis studies; as well as three
paths-to-market and one new substance notification.
Internally, the CRO is helping Wellbeing enhance
its network of clinics to conduct psychedelic clinical trials. The
Company’s goal is for KGK to become the premier contract research
organization in the psychedelics industry. An additional goal of
Wellbeing is to improve virtual trial conduct, by implementing a
novel platform and technology along with its other subsidiary, IRP
Health, that the Company expects to be launched next year. As a
result of their 2021 achievements, KGK advanced its reputation as
an expert in the psychedelics sector and became a founding member
of the Psychedelic Science 2023 Event that is being planned as the
world’s largest gathering of people in the psychedelic
ecosystem.
“By the lengthy list of engagements currently
under way, it is clear that KGK’s services are in high demand. Our
management team and employees are working hard every day to help
clients navigate the clinical trial process and regulatory
environment. I’m incredibly proud of KGK’s evolution and am
grateful for the support of both our longstanding clients, new
customers and future collaborators,” said Najla Guthrie, President
and CEO of KGK.
“2021 was an important development year for both
KGK and our overall organization as the subsidiary was integrated
after being acquired and synergies were quickly realized. With the
large number of clinical trials, research projects and
collaborations with aligned counterparties already under way at the
CRO, management expects that 2022 may be even more rewarding. The
acquisition of KGK was definitely a highlight of last year and we
look forward to growing together, along with the rest of the
organization,” added Adam Deffett, Interim CEO of Wellbeing.
