TORONTO, Ontario -- 

Antibe Therapeutics Inc. ("Antibe" or the “Company”) (TSXV:ATE, OTCQB:ATBPF), a leader in developing safer therapeutics for pain and inflammation, is pleased to announce that it has prepared a comprehensive report of the recently-completed Phase 2B study for its lead drug, ATB-346. The study was completed in March 2018 and demonstrated unequivocal superiority in gastrointestinal (“GI”) safety compared to naproxen, the most prescribed NSAID in the United States.

The report provides a discussion of the study objectives and design, an analysis of the primary and secondary outcomes and additional effectiveness and safety parameters, and a brief discussion of the possible mechanisms related to the metabolism of ATB-346 responsible for the favourable pharmacokinetics and enhanced cyclo-oxygenase (COX) inhibition. The review article is available for download on Antibe’s website at: http://www.antibethera.com/news-media/scientific-publications/.

About ATB-346

ATB-346 is a hydrogen sulfide-releasing derivative of naproxen. NSAIDs are the most commonly used therapy for osteoarthritis, yet their use is associated with a high incidence of gastrointestinal ulceration and bleeding. NSAIDs are also widely used in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, and general pain reduction, with a similarly high rate of gastrointestinal ulceration and bleeding. It is well-accepted that patients with these conditions would benefit greatly from an effective, non-addictive, GI-sparing anti-inflammatory/analgesic agent such as ATB-346.
