GCANRx is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development

and commercialization of innovative cannabinoid delivery systems.

GCANRx leverages its patented technology platform, which has been

successfully used in other drug delivery applications, for the benefit of

cannabis patients and consumers.

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 20195

Inefficient Absorption Inaccurate Dosing Unhealthy Side EffectsInhalation: Bioavailability following the smoking route was reported as 2−56%, due in part to intra- and inter-subject variability in smoking dynamics.

Ingestion: Average bioavailability is 4-12%. Less than 1% of cannabinoids actually reach target receptors. This leads to increased dosing to achieve desired effect, and inefficient consumer spending.

Inaccurate/Unpredictable Dosing: Health professionals are wary about being able to provide accurate dosing.

According to a study in the June 23/30 issue of JAMA, 83% of cannabis products tested were found to have over or undervalued the amount of Cannabinoids found in the product.

Cannabis Smoke: Similar to smoking tobacco, these include increased risks of exposure to ammonia (20x tobacco), hydrogen cyanide (5x tobacco), nitrogen oxides, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Cannabis smoke contains thousands of organic and inorganic chemical compounds. This tar is chemically similar to that found in tobacco smoke or cigars. Over fifty known carcinogens have been identified in cannabis smoke. These include nitrosamines, reactive aldehydes, and polycylic hydrocarbons, including benz[a]pyrene. Marijuana smoke was listed as a cancer agent in California in 2009. Increased risk to microorganisms from improper processing including salmonella, mold, and known toxic and carcinogenic fungi.

Ingestible products do not have as many side effects as smoking but have a much longer onset time and lower bioavailability due to first pass metabolism and GI degradation.

However, current cannabis delivery systems are severely lacking.

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 20196

Our eluting patch platform (EPP) is an orally dissolving

transmucosal thin film. Its multilayer system enables

multiple cannabinoids and different dosages to be loaded

onto the same patch, and delivered in pre-set intervals.

• Easy-to-use (fully dissolvable)

• No side effects

• High bioavailability

• Can control the absorption rate

• Can load multiple compounds and dosages

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 2019

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 20197

GCANRx’s delivery platform can be utilized to deliver cannabis actives directly into the body without the

harmful side effects of smoking or vaping, and with quicker onset and

greater bioavailability than ingestibles.

GCANRx’s technology enables quicker desired effects with a lower, and more accurate, standardized dosing.

Buccal Application: The patch is easy to use – just open and stick to the cheek.

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 20199

The patch has multiple layers and enables different dosages.

Towards the oral cavity Towards buccal / gum tissue

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 201910

GCANRx’s patch has several advantages.

Rapid onset with slow, fast, and sustained release

Needle-free intra-oral systemic drug delivery

Easy, clean, and discrete administration (use anytime, anywhere)

Multi-layer and multi-purpose film that’s flexible and thin

High active material loading capacity (50 mg)

Bioadhesive and fully orally dissolvable

Rapid onset with slow, fast, and sustained release

• Lower Dosing: The transmembrane functionality enables needle-free, rapid drug absorption through transmucosal delivery, administering the medicine directly into the blood while bypassing the digestive and hepatic systems. End results are higher bioavailability, and a therapeutic effect achieved with less API.

• Multi-Dosing: The mucoadhesive film is applied on the internal mouth, and is made of multiple dosage form layers enabling loading of different dosages on the same thin film patch.

• Controlled Release: Two or more layers of the eluting patch offers diverse timing of drug administration. The inner film layer is attached to the membrane providing fast release and therapeutic onset, followed by the outer film layers providing a slow and sustained release.

• Versatility: Each layer contains similar or different cannabinoids, which can be customized per the specific requirements of a consumer profile or patient subset.

CORPORATE PRESENTATION / JANUARY 201911

Clinical pharmacokinetic studies were conducted and published in conjunction with Penn State School of Medicine. Results showed the eluting patch delivery as an novel delivery system was well tolerated and produced peak plasma levels in a similar range to those achieved by existing methods of administration. 

GCANRx's Eluting Patch Platform has been studied with support from the National Institutes of Health.
