About Propanc:
Propanc is currently focused on developing new cancer treatments
for patients suffering from pancreatic and colorectal cancers. We
have developed a formulation of anti-cancer compounds which exert a
number of effects designed to control or prevent tumors from
recurring and spreading throughout the body. Our products involve
or employ proenzymes, which are inactive precursors of enzymes.
In the near term, we intend to target patients with limited
remaining therapeutic options for the treatment of solid tumors
such as colorectal or pancreatic tumors. In future, we intend to
develop our lead product to treat (i) early stage cancer and (ii)
pre-cancerous diseases and (iii) as a preventative measure for
patients at risk of developing cancer based on genetic screening.
