Cocrystal Pharma Discusses Therapeutic Platform Applications and Progress with The Stock Day Podcast

By: Newsfile

Phoenix, Arizona--(Newsfile Corp. - August 3, 2022) - The Stock Day Podcast welcomed Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: COCP) ("the Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company discovering and developing novel antiviral therapeutics that target the replication process of influenza viruses, coronaviruses (including SARS-CoV-2), hepatitis C viruses and noroviruses. CFO and co-interim CEO James (Jim) Martin joined Stock Day host Sever Copley.

Copley began the interview by asking about the Company's platform and influenza therapies. "The foundation of Cocrystal is this platform," said Martin, adding that the Company was founded with Nobel Prize-winning expertise as the basis for their creation of antiviral drugs. "This platform has perfected being able to develop compounds that turn into drugs."

"What can you tell us about your COVID therapeutics?" asked Copley. "We exclusively licensed broad-spectrum viral protease inhibitors from Kansas State University Research Foundation for intranasal delivery, and developed our own novel antiviral drug candidates for oral delivery," said Martin. "We have already developed two compounds, which are lead molecules, to go into clinical trials," he said. "One is an intranasal compound and one is an oral compound," added Martin, noting the value of an oral therapeutic for COVID.

"Could you tell us about your Influenza A program?" asked Copley. "We have an ongoing Phase 1 study in Australia," shared Martin. "We came out with an announcement that the pharmacokinetic data looks very good," he said, adding that the product is being developed as a once per day pill. "We are already preparing for our Phase 2 trials."

"Vaccines are more preventative," continued Martin. "They enable your body to fight the virus," he added. "Therapeutics are different; once you get a virus, therapeutics go in and fight the virus," said Martin, adding that although viruses eventually subside, they affect people in different ways, making a suitable therapeutic invaluable.

To close the interview, Martin elaborated on the Company's dedication to science as it continues to develop therapeutic solutions. He also encouraged listeners and shareholders to keep up-to-date on the Company's current and upcoming projects.
