FORT COLLINS, Colo., March 18, 2019 (Newswire.com) – Marizyme, Inc. (“Marizyme” or the “Company”), a publicly traded (OTC: MRZM) company focusing on acquiring late-stage drug assets for use in the acute care space and related areas, announced today that they signed a Letter of Intent to evaluate the licensing or acquisition of certain non-opiate pain relief and rare disease assets from Chromocell Corporation (“Chromocell”), pending further due diligence from both companies.
Mr. James Sapirstein, Executive Chairman of Marizyme, Inc., commented: “This opportunity is a perfect fit with Marizyme’s strategic direction. We are very pleased to work with Chromocell and proceed with the due diligence process.”

Chromocell’s lead candidate CC8464 has completed Phase 1 clinical trials in the United States.
Mr. Christian Kopfli, Chief Executive Officer of Chromocell, Inc. said: “Evaluating a partnership with Marizyme to bring our products to market is an exciting development for our company. Non-opiate analgesics are critical for treating patients with acute and chronic pain.”
