DanCann Pharma A/S has successfully completed pre-validation batches and expects final approval from the Danish Medicines Agency by the end of summer
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, 26 May 2023 - DanCann Pharma A/S (SS: DANCAN) (OTCQB: DCPXF) ("DanCann Pharma" or the "Company"), a Danish company powered by cannabinoids, is pleased to announce the completion of its pre-validation batches. These batches are paving the way for the Company's forthcoming application to the Danish Medicines Agency for its final inspection of Biotech Pharm1 (“BP1”), seeking approval for the release of its products. This achievement aligns closely with the Company's original expectations, with minor adjustments made along the way.
As communicated in December 2022, three validation batches are required before final approval. DanCann Pharma is pleased to announce that the Company has successfully completed these pre-validation batches and is now ready to apply for final approval.
During the last months, DanCann Pharma has been diligently working to improve the stability and validity of its products since the inspection and EU-GMP certification of the manufacturing facility by the Danish Medicines Agency in November 2022. The Company's focus has primarily been on its initial tetrahydrocannabinol genetics, developed in a flos/herbal substance format. During the validation process, the Company has done some minor performance adjustments to the facility (BP1), resulting in a slight delay in the timeline when it comes to securing the final approval of the products before first sales. In collaboration with the Danish authorities, DanCann Pharma expects to send the final application, regarding the release certificate, during June.
DanCann Pharma is optimistic about successfully obtaining the release certificate, which marks the final checkpoint in the approval process. The final approval can take place shortly after the final documentations has been sent in. However, considering the summer holidays and the involvement of relevant authorities, the Company has decided to postpone its previous guidance for the release certificate attainment in May. The new expected timeframe for this milestone is set to end of summer, which will allow for thorough and comprehensive review by the authorities within the required timeframe to ensure the highest standards of quality and compliance are met.
DanCann Pharma will keep the market informed about the progress regarding the approval and any further developments about the facility.
