/EIN News/ -- MONTREAL, March 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sunshine Biopharma Inc. (OTC PINK: “SBFM”), a pharmaceutical company focused on the research, development and commercialization of oncology and antiviral drugs, today announced that it has received shipment of a new batch of Adva-27a from its manufacturer in China. The material has been delivered to the laboratories of Sunshine Biopharma’s drug development partner in Montreal (Canada). Following initial QA/QC testing of the material for specific biological activity, Sunshine Biopharma will proceed to performing tumor inhibition studies on xenograft mice harboring tumors of human pancreatic cancer origin.

Mice studies of this sort provide crucial information and technical guidance for the clinical trials to be conducted in subsequent drug development events,” said Dr. Steve Slilaty, CEO of Sunshine Biopharma.
