(firmenpresse) - Sirona Biochem Announces Positive Safety and Efficacy Data for Innovative Skin Lightening Compound SBM-TFC-1067 Accepted as Abstract Presentation by IMCAS
Vancouver, British Columbia - June 16, 2016 - Sirona Biochem Corp. (TSX-V: SBM) (FSE: ZSB) (Xetra: ZSB) (the Company) announced positive preclinical safety and efficacy data with SBM-TFC-1067 in a 3-D human skin-like model was accepted as an abstract for oral presentation by Sironas Chief Scientific Officer, Geraldine Deliencourt-Godefroy, at the IMCAS Asia Conference in Tapei on July 31, 2016.
Sirona has now demonstrated significant skin lightening in a model used by cosmetic scientists and leading cosmetic corporations around the world. In the study, SBM-TFC-1067, was topically applied daily to a MatTek Corps Melanoderm 3-D human skin model for 14 days using 3 different concentrations (0.1, 0.05 and 0.01%). Pigmentation was evaluated on days 0, 7, 11, and 14 using a chromameter to measure brightness (L*D65). Total melanin content was quantified after day 14. Results showed a statistically significant difference in surface reflectance with the 0.1% and 0.05% concentrations of 1067. There was also a significant reduction of melanin quantity, which translates to visibly lighter skin.

This is definitely good news for the millions of individuals around the world with hyperpigmentation or melasma, said Attila Hajdu, Chief Business Development Officer of Sirona Biochem. This exciting new data shows significant reduction in pigmentation without toxicity in human skin and being accepted as an abstract in the clinical dermatology stream at IMCAS is scientific validation.
