About Devonian
Devonian is a late stage botanical pharmaceutical corporation with novel therapeutic approaches targeting unmet
medical needs. Devonian's core strategy is to develop prescription botanical drugs. This strategy is supported by US-FDA set of
regulatory guidelines favouring a more efficient drug development pathway versus traditional prescription medicines. Devonian is
based on a broad-based platform originating from over ten years of research. This platform provides a unique process of extraction,
purification, stabilization and conditioning of a molecular complex responsible for the photosynthetic process in plants and algae:
The Supra Molecular Complex Extraction and Stabilisation Technology (SUPREX). "Thykamine™" is the first product issued from this
platform. The potent anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities of "Thykamine™" have been demonstrated in several pre-clinical
experiments as well as in a clinical study in patients with mild-to-moderate distal ulcerative colitis. The product is now moving
into large phase II clinical trials in two therapeutic areas: Ulcerative Colitis and Atopic Dermatitis. While the development of
prescription botanical drugs is its core business, Devonian is also involved in the development of high value derma-cosmeceutical
products as part of a secondary strategy to generate short-term revenues and optimize manufacturing efficiency.
