AREV Life Sciences Global (CSE: AREV) (OTC: AREVF) is a fully integrated, publicly traded, early-stage life science enterprise dedicated to delivering therapeutic interventions to public health through discovery, innovation and successful collaborations in the life science industry. The company’s leadership drives discovery programs for clinical complexities presented by malnutrition, viral infectious diseases and the inflammatory response system.
AREV’s business model leverages the core competency of producing proprietary compounds through its innovative extraction methodologies, scientific advisory board (“SAB”), experienced staff, and executive leadership to drive its product pipeline. AREV’s strategy is to generate revenue from selling its branded products via its online technology platform, Medicine Merchant(TM), an enterprise marketing platform built to enable consumers to have access to novel therapeutic approaches to human nutrition, endemic diseases, and neglected chronic related co-morbidities. The company also expects to generate revenue from toll processing and government procurement of its products that address malnutrition and related health issues.
AREV is focused on innovations in biomedicine and maintains a significant footprint in clinical human nutrition utilizing proprietary protein blends and terpenes, complimented with vitamins and minerals. The company has utilized its expertise to design and deliver innovation in therapeutic interventions using its exclusive botanical, fungi and marine compounds to address medical conditions driven by presenting global epidemiological characteristics of multiple challenges to international human and animal health. AREV uses its proprietary extractions allowing characterizations from botanical and marine sources in therapeutic foods and medicines that comprise its development pipeline.
Development of AREV’s pipeline is fostered by collaborations with academic centers, clinical research organizations and government institutions committed to facilitating discovery of promising new clinical approaches presented in peer reviewed journals. AREV operates under the guidance of its SAB and a growing number of strategic collaborations with CROs and academic research centers, including the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University.
AREV is a member of both BIOTECanada and The Biotechnology Industry Organization (“BIO”):
- BIOTECanada is the national industry association with over 200 members located nationwide, reflecting the diverse nature of Canada’s health, industrial and agricultural biotechnology sectors.
- BIO is the world’s largest advocacy association representing member companies, state biotechnology groups, academic and research institutions, and related organizations across the United States and 30+ countries.
Products
AREV’s end-product and target categories include therapeutic interventions, botanical drugs, ready-to-use therapeutic food (“RUTF”), enteral nutrition formulas and early-stage small molecule antiviral therapeutics demonstrating novel mechanisms of action.
Wright and Well Branded Line
Wright and Well Branded Line is the company’s branded line of therapeutic cannabinoid and terpene-based formulations. The topical line includes solutions for burns, wounds, skin disorders and muscle relief, as well as a lubricant for intimacy. The oral line addresses inflammation, heart health, high blood pressure and viral infections. These products are currently produced at CBD99, a licensed processor in Sandy, Oregon. The company also has a strategic relationship with a Canadian licensed hemp and cannabis processor in Vancouver, British Columbia.
SUS-TAINN(TM)
The company’s products in the RUTF category are branded under SUS-TAINN(TM) (Superior Utility Supplementation Therapeutic Agent for Indicated Nutritional Needs). SUS-TAINN(TM) is the flagship line of products stemming from AREV’s collaboration with Voynich Biosciences.
RUTFs like SUS-TAINN(TM) are the cornerstone to international famine response and currently represent more than 20 percent of public health commodity procurement spending. SUS-TAINN(TM) is purchased by agencies ranging from the U.S. Department of State AID for International Development to the World Food Program and is distributed by an increasingly substantial number of non-governmental organizations.
RESTORE(TM)
The company’s enteral nutrition product is branded as RESTORE(TM). For patients experiencing caloric compromise, enteral nutrition, a liquid form of nourishment, is often required. RESTORE(TM), the initial enteral formulation from AREV, is based on organic plant nutrition for patient populations who have demonstrated overt clinical need for rational enhanced caloric intake and micronutrient supplementation.
RESTORE(TM) provides a proprietary blend of high-quality proteins, antioxidants, minerals and proven anabolic agents, combined with pre- and probiotics. The company plans to submit for Medicaid formulary inclusion and reimbursement designations in various jurisdictions characterized by the Ryan White CARE Act during the second half of 2022.
REV-I1(TM)
REV-I1(TM) is the company’s small molecule drug discovery model for phytomedicinalization, based on advanced computational characterization and next generation affinity selection that affords new opportunities in HIV antiretroviral research. REV inhibition offers a critical approach to inhibiting HIV replication and addressing viremia in highly conserved sanctuary regions.
Phytomedicinal therapeutic discovery and development offer clinically viable approaches to a wide range of scientific challenges that currently elude successful contemporary interventions. A cornucopia of diverse validated compounds allows AREV to explore a distinguished range of promising approaches that are in stages of pre-clinical validation. Combining AREV’s versatile extraction capability with highly sensitive analytical techniques (LC-MS, MS-MS) is expected to allow new medicinal chemistry to be identified and characterized, leading to therapeutic candidates in the company’s commercial drug discovery platform.
Market Overview
A report from Verified Market Research valued the global plant protein market at $29.4 billion in 2020 and forecast that it could surpass $162 billion by 2030, which would make up 7.7% of the global protein market, according to a report released in August by Bloomberg Intelligence.
The RUTF market was valued at $363.72 million in 2019 and is projected to reach $807.89 million by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 10.5% for the forecast period. The market is primarily driven by the efforts of governments and non-governmental organizations to reduce the rate of severe acute malnutrition. Moreover, changing trends and growing developments related to diet-related deficiencies, as well as increasing incidences of famine and disasters, are likely to fuel the growth of the RUTF market in the near future, according to the report.
