Sirona Biochem Corp . (TSXV: SBM) (FSE: ZSB) (US-OTC: SRBCF) (" Sirona ") is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with a top 10 global pharmaceutical company ( "Company" ) to jointly test Sirona's novel skin care, dark spot remover, TFC-1067, in a new clinical study.

Sirona Biochem Corp. (CNW Group/Sirona Biochem Corp.)

The clinical trial, launched October 5 th , will run for a period of 12 weeks and include a minimum of 125 participants. It will be managed by Dermscan (a division of Eurofins), a global leader in cosmetic clinical trials. The study's endpoint is to determine the compound's ability to reduce hyperpigmentation or "dark spots" of the skin.

Multiple parameters will be measured including the added effects of the higher concentration of TFC-1067 and a boosted formulation. The study is expected to complete in early 2021 with results in February 2021 . The study protocol was established through a collaboration of the scientific teams of TFChem, Sirona's wholly owned subsidiary and the Company's skincare scientific team.

Following the study, the Company will have first access to the clinical study results to assess potential use by its subsidiary dermatology company.

"To have a partner of this magnitude assisting in the design and financing of our clinical trial is a testament to the potential of TFC-1067," said Dr. Howard Verrico , CEO of Sirona Biochem. "We look forward to continuing our relationship with their clinical team through the study as we evaluate the higher dose and improved formulation of the compound. TFC-1067 has been clinically proven to selectively lighten dark spots and blend them into surrounding skin tone. The ability to lessen visibility of dark spots while preserving underlying skin tone safely is a unique consumer benefit."
