In this InvestorIntel interview with host Tracy Weslosky, Awakn Life Sciences Corp.’s (NEO: AWKN | OTCQB: AWKNF) Co-Founder & CEO Anthony Tennyson talks about advances in the company’s commercializing therapeutics to treat addiction, particularly Alcohol Use Disorder, which affects 400 million people globally.
In the interview, which can also be viewed in full on the InvestorIntel YouTube channel (click here), Anthony discusses adding Dennis Purcell, founder of major life sciences venture capital firm Aisling Capital LLC, as a Special Advisor to the CEO as part of Awakn’s strategy to pursue an uplisting to the NASDAQ next year. Anthony also talks about Awakn being unique in that it has four R&D programs and two commercialization streams which include clinics currently operating in the U.K. and are currently producing revenue for the company with a 24% quarter over quarter revenue growth from Q4 last year to Q1 in 2022.
Anthony talks about how Awakn’s therapeutics represents the third generation of addiction treatment, with therapeutics that disrupt the “brain circuits that house the behaviors that drive the addiction, and that approach enables us to develop therapeutics to treat both substance and also behavioral addictions.” Awakn’s lead program that combines ketamine and therapy together to treat Alcohol Use Disorder has “delivered three times better results than the current standard of care, and that really has the ability to transform the treatment of Alcohol Use Disorder on a global basis, and has the ability to provide hope for individuals, families and communities.”
