VANCOUVER, BC, June 16, 2020 /CNW/ - Sirona Biochem Corp. (TSXV: SBM) (FSE: ZSB) (US-OTC: SRBCF) ("Sirona") is pleased to announce that it has made its first shipment of compound, TFC-1067, to industry leader Rodan + Fields, LLC ("Rodan + Fields") formulation team. Rodan + Fields will be the first to market for a consumer product utilizing TFC-1067 for the treatment of dyschromia (hyperpigmentation or "dark spots" of the skin).

Sirona Biochem Corp. (CNW Group/Sirona Biochem Corp.)

Using the services and expertise of Contract Research Organization, Roowin SA, Sirona scaled-up production to the multi-kilogram level. The synthetic process was refined to yield a large supply of high purity TFC-1067 to meet the exacting standards for a high-quality product. Roowin will be providing a further supply of TFC-1067 near term as production continues. Sirona management is currently in advanced negotiations with Chinese producers regarding large scale manufacturing of TFC-1067 and expects to sign an agreement in this regard within the next quarter. Part of the strategic plan is to build up an inventory of commercially ready TFC-1067 through two manufacturing sites. This will enable a quick response to anticipated demands from other companies using a diversified supply channel. Further details of the product launch will remain confidential for strategic reasons.

Sirona also announces a successful attendance at BIO Digital, June 8-12, 2020. Interest in TFC-1067 and anti-aging from international cosmetic companies was high during the virtual conference. The advancement of TFC-1067 through clinical and manufacturing has established a significant level of interest as the compound is much more attractive to companies. Having a ready supply of inventory and established manufactures vastly decreases the risk for organizations looking to add TFC-1067 to their product lines.
