Senzer's Medical Device Approved in Europe for the Safe and Effective Delivery of Cannabinoids

London (ots/PRNewswire) - Senzer Pharmaceuticals has been granted
a CE Mark that certifies its inhaler as a medical device, allowing it
to now be available for patients in Europe for the 'safe and
effective delivery of pharmaceutical cannabinoids.'

The Class IIa Medical Device approval is the first-ever in the
cannabinoid space and clears the way for the UK-based Company to
supply the UK in the unlicensed medicines category known as
'Specials'. Senzer will now advance its plans to launch this year in
the UK and other leading European territories.

'Many patients have been approaching their doctors to seek
cannabinoid treatment, and doctors have understandably been wanting
clarity on which cannabinoids are available, how to ensure a
controlled dose, and whether the actives are validated and supported
by clinical evidence,' said Senzer CEO Alex Hearn. 'We believe with
our inhaler we can provide answers to some of these key questions.'

To ensure consistency, Senzer's breath-activated inhaler delivers
synthetic cannabinoids, all manufactured to a pharmaceutical
standard. Development work to date has focused on the cannabinoids
CBD and THC, and the Company intends to formulate using specific
CBD/THC ratios, giving medical professionals great flexibility to
treat patients.

The Senzer inhaler deploys cannabinoids from a pressurised
cannister, ensuring these highly reactive elements are kept in an
inert, stable state. A patient's breath activates the device,
allowing inhalation of the actives in a fine mist that goes deep into
the lung, giving a quick uptake at a lower dosage. The device allows
patients to control their dosing and the Company has data to show
comparability to the uptake from injections or IVs. The Company
believes its platform holds considerable advantages over other means
of ingestion, such as oral, as well as other respiratory offerings,
such as vaping.

Senzer Quality Director Lester Gleeson said the CE Mark approval
was a joint project with the Company's manufacturing partner,
Europlaz. The approval describes the device as being used for the
'safe and effective delivery of pharmaceutical cannabinoids,' and he
said the approval was a significant milestone in Senzer's clinical
development strategy.

'Launching into the Specials arena will give us some real insight
into what conditions people are requesting treatment for, and to
evaluate which may be the most optimal formulations for these
conditions,' Mr Gleeson said. 'This will in turn inform our clinical
trial programme as we work to develop fully licensed medicines.'
