Propanc Biopharma Believes PRP Reduced Toxicity Will Impact Cancer Patient Lives Significantly
As it happens, the announcement from the company on Thursday was a positive one and it may be a good idea now for investors to take a closer look into it. Dr. Julian Kenyon who is the co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of the company, made a major announcement with regards to the advantage of PRP when compared to standard cancer treatment.
He noted that since there was less toxicity in PRP, it could have a far more positive impact on cancer patients as opposed to traditional treatments. As is well known, many of the standard treatments for cancer may have considerable adverse effects and that impacts the lives of patients as well. Hence, the announcement from the Propanc CSO was an important one. However, it did not have any positive effect on the stock.
