$CUBT Looks like they are gearing up for moving forward.
"Curative Biotechnology is developing a potential breakthrough treatment for degenerative eye disease.
Unlike current treatments which require ocular injections, Curative has developed a reformulated version of the FDA-approved drug metformin to treat various types of retinal degeneration under an exclusive worldwide license from the National Eye Institute (NEI) at the NIH.
Metformin has been shown to suppress oxidative stress, improve autophagy in retinal cells, decrease the production of reactive oxygen species that can lead to cell death, and inhibit the epithelial to mesenchymal transition which causes subretinal fibrosis in Dry AMD (age related macular degeneration).
Unlike current treatments which require ocular injections, Curative has developed an eye drop which it believes can get sufficient drug to the back of the eye with topical application to have therapeutic effect.
Curative is preparing for clinical trials...
