$MJNA New Cannabis-Derived Compound KLS-13019 Covered by Reuters

“Kannalife is seeing an enormous opportunity with the development of KLS-13019. We believe that a successful clinical trial for Grade 3 hepatic encephalopathy (HE) patients could lead to several other applications for the compound. At Medical Marijuana, Inc., our sincere appreciation goes out to the scientists and researchers cited in the American Chemical Society’s ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters that exhibited the science behind KLS-13019,” states Dr. Stuart W. Titus, Chief Executive Officer of Medical Marijuana, Inc.

Along with moving KLS-13019 toward clinical trials, Kannalife is preparing a Series B Offering, where the Company seeks to raise $5 million to $10 million. As reported by Reuters, Kannalife may explore a possible IPO in the near future. Via the proposed Series B Offering, Kannalife believes the funding will be sufficient for them to begin clinical trials in the first quarter of 2017.
