GCAN Greater Cannabis Company Inc (PK)

GammaCan International, Inc. (OTC BB: GCAN), a developer of immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer and other diseases, today announced that Patrick Schnegelsberg, Chief Executive Officer, is scheduled to present VitiGam, GammaCan's second generation product under development for the treatment of melanoma, to the investor, biotechnology and pharma community at the BioPartnering Europe Conference. The conference will be held at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in London from October 8-11, 2006. Mr. Schnegelsberg is scheduled to present on Monday, October 9th at 12 Noon GMT. About VitiGam: VitiGam is GammaCan's second generation intravenous IgG-based product and a first-in-class anti-cancer immunotherapy. GammaCan plans on having VitiGam to enter phase I/II testing under a US IND in the near future after it recently held a pre-IND meeting with the FDA. VitiGam is being designed to target metastatic melanoma patients with Stage III and IV melanoma. VitiGam is an IgG product that is different from standard IgGs: It is manufactured from the plasma of donors with vitiligo, a benign autoimmune skin condition affecting up to 2% of the general population. GammaCan scientists have shown that this "enriched" vitiligo IgG (VitiGam) contains potent anti-melanoma activity in both in vitro and mouse xenograft melanoma models. Thus, GammaCan expects VitiGam to provide (1) anti-melanoma activity directed specifically against malignant melanoma cells and (2) non-specific anti-cancer activity - as is the case with IgG in general. About GammaCan GammaCan is focusing on the commercialization of an innovative anti-cancer immunotherapy to treat metastatic cancer. GammaCan's platform is based on IgG, a safe, relatively non-toxic human plasma-based product, currently used to treat a variety of immune deficiencies and autoimmune diseases. IgG works by strengthening the patient's immune system. Many experts currently view immunotherapy as a future alternative to today's standard chemotherapy. GammaCan is developing VitiGam, its second generation program. VitiGam is an IgG derived from the plasma of vitiligo donors and is being developed to treat malignant melanoma. GammaCan owns, and has applied for US patent protection covering the use of IgG and vitiligo-derived IgG (VitiGam).
