“At Kannalife we are always pleased to be called to participate at industry symposiums and conferences that focus on Cannabinoid therapeutics in the clinical setting.” Petkanas said “The Cannabinoid based therapeutics market is moving at a rapid pace, as seen by the recent 13-0 vote from the FDA’s advisory panel in favor of market approval for GW Pharmaceutical’s epilepsy drug EpidiolexTM. As for Kannalife, we are seeing great progress in the potential benefits of our own proprietary cannabidiol derived compound KLS-13019 in the treatment of disorders like Chemotherapy Induced Neuropathic Pain (CINP) and chronic diseases like Hepatic Enchephalopathy (HE) and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE).”
