COLLEGE STATION, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 24, 2023 / Biogenysis, Inc. (OTC PINK:ENZC) (or the "Company"). Biogenysis, a subsidiary of Enzolytics, Inc., announces the progress of its Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) application covering its inventions relating to Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies. The PCT application has now advanced to filing as a U.S. National Stage Application in the U.S. Patent Office and as a formal European Patent Organization (EPO) application. The EPO application makes possible coverage in the 39 contracting countries within the EPO. These countries include all of the countries in the European Union, the United Kingdom and the extensive list totally 39 member countries throughout Europe and adjacent regions. The pending applications contain 23 separate patent claims covering (1) the 19 discovered highly conserved antigens and epitopes (sites) on the SARS CoV-2 virus, (2) antibodies that bind to the disclosed antigens and epitopes, (3) vaccines based on the antigens, (4) methods of treating, preventing, or reducing the risks of SARS CoV-2 infection with the antigens or binding proteins, and (5) methods and kits for detecting or diagnosing infection by SARS CoV-2 using the antigens or binding proteins. Through computer analysis (Artificial Intelligence (AI)), the Company discovered 19 immutable conserved virus sites on the COVID-19 virus by analyzing 2.8 million SARS CoV-2 isolates. This analysis identified these critical, conserved, immutable epitopes of the virus. These sites are now claimed as patentable based on their novel specificity and the finding that they are conserved on SARS-CoV-2. This is significant because antibodies produced to bind to these conserved, immutable sites can neutralize the virus without the possibility of "virus escape" due to virus mutation. Specifically, virus mutants will still contain these target sites allowing these specialized monoclonal antibodies to neutralize the virus even as it mutates. The Company's patent applications claim the use of any one identified epitope or any combination of any of the multiple identified epitopes in any of the following ways: For producing a therapeutic monoclonal antibody to treat the CoronaVirus. For making a vaccine against the CoronaVirus. For creating related prophylactic/therapeutic methods relating to the epitopes/antigens. For use in any diagnostic test to identify whether a person has the CoronaVirus. The Company has produced and is producing fully human monoclonal antibodies against these claimed sites. The International Patent Office has confirmed these discoveries as being novel and inventive, capable of being patented and claimed exclusively for a 20-year term in each member country under the Patent Cooperation Treat in which the Company pursues these claims. The Company also has similar PCT applications pending covering discovered immutable conserved epitopes (binding sites) on the HIV virus and the animal Feline (cat) Leukemia Virus (FeLV). The Company has also analyzed the amino acid sequences on numerous other human and animal viruses and plans to also produce anti-mAbs targeting these sites and will U.S. and international patents on these discoveries. These discoveries include the Company's findings from analyzing the human viruses H1N1 Influenza, HTLV1 & HTLV2, Leukemia Virus, Herpes Simplex I Virus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), Smallpox Virus, Rabies, Influenza A, Influenza B, Ebola Virus, Epstein Barr Virus, and Monkey Pox Virus. The Company has also analyzed and identified conserved and immutable epitopes in animal viruses including Equine Infectious Anemia Virus, Feline Immunodeficiency Virus, Koala Retrovirus Virus, and Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpes Virus. Using the Company's technology currently being used to produce monoclonal antibodies against human viruses, therapeutic mAbs may be produced to treat these animal viruses. The Company fully expects the issuance of multiple international patents covering these discoveries accomplished through the Company's unique process using computer analysis (AI) to identify conserved, immutable epitopes on the target virus. Biogenysis' proprietary AI platform, invented by Dr. Gaurav Chandra, Biogenysis' CEO, has been used to analyze the sequences (structure) of 2.8 Million SARS-CoV-2 virus isolates to identify conserved sites. As a part of this process, 3-dimensional models of these conserved targets were generated, and the targets were analyzed for linearity, accessibility by antibodies, and neutralizability by antibodies. From this, Biogenysis scientists are producing multiple broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting these multiple conserved, immutable epitopes on the targeted virus. The monoclonal antibodies directed against these targets will expectedly be universal, durable, broadly neutralizing, and unaffected by virus mutation. The Company considers the expected patent protection to be highly significant, recognizing that for a monoclonal antibody to be effective (that is, to be fully capable of neutralizing a virus), it must target an immutable site on the virus. Otherwise, virus mutation will render the therapeutic ineffective. Biogenysis' methodology for producing monoclonal antibodies is unique and innovative, unlike those other biotech companies employ. The Company's antibodies are made from human "immune-B cells" obtained from convalescent individuals (or animals in the case of veterinarian monoclonal antibodies) who have recovered from the target virus. The Company's monoclonal antibodies are not "humanized" but are fully human monoclonal antibodies where the original antibody affinity and specificity are maintained, and the chances of immunogenicity are minimized. The Company believes its discoveries will be significant to the success of the Company. Although the COVID-19 pandemic was reported to be over, it is now recognized that COVID-19 will be with us from year to year. The global market size for effective treatments in 2022 was $16.43 billion. The global Monoclonal Antibodies market size was $185.50 Billion in 2021, with an expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.30% from 2022 to 2030. The Company's near-term objective is to collaborate with pharma entities and license its technology or partner with major pharma entities now producing therapies for COVID-19. Regarding the Company's therapeutic against HIV, the Company has produced a fully human anti-HIV monoclonal Antibody, Clone 3. The Company is now producing additional anti-HIV mAbs to be used in combination. Experts agree that a cure for HIV may be found in the production and administration of multiple anti-HIV monoclonal antibodies. This is the Company's goal. The Company has successfully produced and tested, in vitro, one HIV monoclonal antibody (Clone 3) and has identified 7 additional immutable conserved sites on the HIV virus against which it is in the process of producing anti-monoclonal antibodies. These antibodies will be produced as fully human, with the starting point being human "immune-B cells" from long-term non-progressor HIV patients. This production is being conducted with pharmaceutical entities to accelerate the process of production and testing of the monoclonal antibodies. In 2021, the global HIV drugs market was $30.46 billion, with this market projected to grow to $45.58 billion by 2028. The global Monoclonal Antibody market size was $185.50 Billion in 2021, with an expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.30% from 2022 to 2030. The global market for Human Monoclonal Antibodies in 2022 was $55 Billion. The Company's near-term objective is collaboration with pharma companies producing treatments for HIV. The current HIV treatments available do not cure and must be taken for a lifetime. The Company is focused on licensing or partnering with major pharma entities now producing treatments for HIV. To accelerate and fully execute the successful production of the multiple monoclonal antibodies, the subject of the Company's intellectual property, the Company continuously engages with multiple pharma entities to accomplish the successful goal of production, testing, and delivery of successful therapeutics. Gaurav Chandra, Biogenysis' CEO, stated, "Amid alarming concerns regarding COVID mutations, it is crucial to prioritize efforts towards achieving broader immunity against variants, longer-lasting protection, and preventing infection and transmission. Utilizing intranasal IgA monoclonal antibodies effectively attains high secretory IgA levels, reflecting mucosal immunity. The Biogenysis anti-COVID monoclonal antibodies, both IgG and IgA, being universal, broadly neutralizing, durable, and unaffected by mutations, are a critical solution to this pressing issue." Charles Cotropia, Enzolytics' CEO, said, "We have a well-defined strategy for developing an Intellectual Property portfolio to secure significant patent protection covering our therapeutic discoveries in numerous countries around the world. With these rights secured, we will focus on potential partnering or licensing the technology to international pharmaceutical companies working in the areas in which we are focused. Obtaining international patent coverage will be significant in achieving this objective. "The necessary technology is now in hand for producing these therapeutics for use in the treatment of many infectious diseases. The earlier announced plans for the sale of Biogenysis and Virogentics, subsidiaries of Enzolytics, to Sagaliam Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: SAGA), a special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC"), comes at an opportune time. Once completed, this transaction will provide Biogenysis and Virogentics with the capital that will make possible final development of the therapeutics now being produced." Enzolytics, Inc.

Enzolytics has engaged Nutritional Products International (NPI) ( ) to access this 50-Billion-dollar market. The Company's ITV-1 therapeutic is a therapy for treating individuals with HIV. It has been produced and earlier clinically tested in human trials under the Bulgarian Drug Agency requirements. The following positive therapeutic effects of ITV-1 have been demonstrated in prior European clinical trials. Inhibits the infection of CD4 T-cells by HIV. Produced an 80.5% drop in viral loads. Replaces or complements current antiretroviral therapies. Is less costly and less toxic. May be effective as a periodic therapy instead of a daily one. Is unaffected by HIV mutations that can hamper antiretroviral therapies (HAART). Raises CD4 T-cell counts to healthier levels, a 68% increase in CD4+T-lymphocytes. Use achieved an increase in the CD4/CD8 index. Demonstrated an excellent effect on opportunistic infections. Had good compatibility with other antiretroviral drugs. There was good tolerance without any side effects. Use resulted in a decrease in the absolute number and the relative percent of CD8 lymphocytes. Boosts the immune system to fight HIV infections. ITV-1 Ongoing Development The Company has completed the first phase of the animal toxicology studies on its ITV-1 anti-HIV therapeutic and continues to progress with the GLP Compliant Repeat Dose Toxicity Study. . Upon completion of the second-phase toxicology studies, the Company expects to be able to make the ITV-1 therapeutic available in countries in African countries, where the HIV pandemic is severe, namely Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Angola, Kenya, and South Africa. The Company sees this as significant for individuals in Africa recognizing that out of the 38.4 Million HIV-positive people worldwide, 69% live in sub-Saharan Africa. There are roughly 23.8 Million infected persons in all of Africa. 40% of those infected with HIV in Africa do not have any access to any treatment for the virus. In addition, 91% of the world's HIV-positive children live in Africa. The Company is progressing toward approval of ITV-1 under the EMA requirements to launch the therapy in the E.U., followed by seeking FDA approval for use in North America. Enzolytics' Lab at the Texas A&M University Institute for Preclinical Studies Enzolytics' Texas lab is focused on producing fully human monoclonal antibodies targeting multiple infectious diseases, including SARS-CoV-2 and HIV-1. The lab uses the Company's proprietary methodology for producing fully human monoclonal antibodies which target conserved, immutable sites on the viruses, thereby avoiding ineffectiveness due to virus mutation. The methodology implemented by the Company to produce monoclonal antibodies is proprietary and the subject of pending Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) International Patent applications. In the initial process step, Artificial Intelligence (computer analysis - A.I.) is used to identify conserved, immutable epitopes on the target virus utilizing Enzolytics' proprietary A.I. platform. In the A.I. initial analysis step, the sequences (structure) of over 2 million Coronavirus isolates have been analyzed. From that analysis, 19 epitopes (target sites) have been identified as being immutable and conserved across all 2 million isolates curated. The Company production process is then employed to produce monoclonal antibodies targeting these identified conserved sites. For HIV, the Company used A.I. to analyze 87,000 HIV isolates to identify 8 conserved epitopes sites against which monoclonal antibodies are being produced. As a part of the production process, 3 Dimensional models of these conserved targets are generated, and the targets are analyzed for linearity, accessibility by antibodies, and neutralizability by antibodies. The prosecution of the PCT international patent applications filed on these discoveries is progressing through the patent process under the PCT rules. Additional PCT applications are being prepared as additional findings are made regarding the subject therapeutics. In the production of the monoclonal antibodies, Enzolytics, Inc. is working in collaboration with Abveris to produce fully human monoclonal antibodies against multiple viruses using the Company's proprietary methodology. The collaboration makes possible the combination of the synergistic technologies of the two companies to rapidly produce monoclonal antibodies against numerous pathogenic viruses. . In this way, the Company is producing multiple broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting these multiple conserved, immutable epitopes on the targeted virus, in a shortened development time. Enzolytics' methodology for producing monoclonal antibodies is unique and innovative, unlike other biotech companies. The Company's antibodies are produced from human "immune-B cells" obtained from convalescent individuals who have recovered from the target virus. The Company's monoclonal antibodies are not "humanized" but are fully human monoclonal antibodies where the original antibody affinity and specificity are maintained. The methodology starts with human "immune cells" obtained from convalescent individuals who have recovered from the virus. From these human B cells, the Company then produces antibodies that target conserved immutable sites (neutralizable epitopes) on the virus' surface envelope proteins that will be ever-present, rendering the virus neutralizable even through mutation, thus voiding "virus escape". These antibodies also retain the original natural antibody's affinity and specificity and have a very low risk of immunogenicity when used as a therapeutic. Once produced, the monoclonal antibodies are tested for binding and neutralizing activity. These characteristics are confirmed by the Company's partnering laboratories, Genscript Labs and the University of Strasbourg, France. After the final confirmation of antibody activity, the Company's CDMO partner Samsung Biologics will produce the recombinant antibodies in their proprietary, FDA-approved stable CHO cell line suitable for Clinical Application. . Enzolytics is developing Class switched IgA1/2 Clone 3 Antibodies. This therapy will expectedly provide a protective immunological defense against an initial exposure to HIV at mucosal surfaces, such as in the passage of the virus from mother to child through maternal breastfeeding. HIV mucosal infection plays a critical role in virus transmission and AIDS pathogenesis, affecting mucosal surfaces of the gastrointestinal tract early on by depleting CD4+ T helper cells independently of the virus transmission route. Although current antiretroviral therapy is intended to control HIV infection in most patients, it cannot eradicate the virus from the human host. Therefore, the development and use of HIV microbicides (i.e., topical pre-exposure prophylaxis) have become a most promising approach to preventing HIV transmission. Thus, the development of Class switched Clone 3 IgA1/IgA2 is highly significant. In addition to the anti-HIV monoclonal antibody already produced and tested, Enzolytics is producing monoclonal antibodies targeting the additional seven conserved targets identified by the A.I. platform. The Company COO Dr. Gaurav Chandra noted, "While the Company's focus is on producing monoclonal antibodies for treating human viruses, the Company is now applying its technology in the production of monoclonal antibodies against animal viruses, including Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). The Company has analyzed, using Artificial Intelligence, epitopes of these viruses and has identified conserved sites against which targeting monoclonal antibodies are being developed. The Company has also analyzed epitopes of the Equine Infectious Anemia Virus, Koala Retrovirus, Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpes Virus (EEHV), Avian Flu Swine Flu, and others. This analysis has revealed the conserved immutable sites on these viruses against which monoclonal antibody production is planned. The production of these monoclonal antibodies begins in the Company's lab located at the Texas A&M University Institute for Preclinical Studies [ ]. Using the Company's proprietary methodology for producing fully human monoclonal antibodies which target conserved, immutable sites on the viruses, multiple monoclonal antibodies are being produced." Producing antibodies for the treatment of Feline Leukemia Virus and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus is significant because these viruses are the most common infectious diseases in cats. There are more than 150 million cats in the U.S. and over 25% of households in America own cats. These Feline viruses a significant percentage of the cat population in the United States and around the world. Production of monoclonal antibodies targeting these viruses will be more direct and the time to market will be significantly less than is the case required for monoclonal antibodies developed for the treatment of individuals. The Company has initiated discussions with animal health providers who express an interest in this technology and its end product. IPF Immune, ITV-1 and HIV Monoclonal Antibodies Potential Each of the Company's therapeutic products offers significant potential. Charles Cotropia, the Company CEO, said, "Our IPF Immune product will be beneficial to those who take it and because production is efficient, value will be easily realized both to consumers and the Company. For the first time, 80 percent of American adults are taking dietary supplements, before the pandemic, that number was in the 70s. The U.S. vitamin and supplement industry currently totals $35.6 Billion in 2022 while the global sector is worth $151.9 Bllion." Mr. Cotropia went on to say, "We are developing therapeutics to treat HIV, considered one of the most serious and chronic diseases. The prevalence of HIV is souring at a significant rate. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that 34 million individuals are living with HIV. Due to increased awareness, there is now an increase in testing, leading to a surge in demand for HIV medications. Today, there is no cure for HIV. Instead, the virus and its disease are treated by administering antiretroviral (ARV) drugs that do not cure and must be taken for life. The global HIV antiretroviral drugs market was $30.46 Billion in 2021 and is expected to rise to $45.58 Billion in 2028, at a CAGR of 5.9% in the forecast period, 2021-2028. Even though there are treatments for those with HIV - antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) -, the treatments do not cure and require lifelong use - which over a lifetime cause severe side effects including bone loss, heart disease, diabetes, lactic acidosis, kidney, liver, or pancreas damage, among others." Additionally, ARV treatments are extremely expensive. New ARV drugs such as Biktarvy by Gilead can cost up to $75K per year. Cabenuva by VIIV Healthcare costs $48K a year. As a result, of the 38.4 Million people in the world who have HIV, only 69% have access to any available treatment, leaving 31% with no treatment. Of children in the world with HIV, only 50% have access to treatment, leaving 50% with no treatment. To address this dire situation, the Company is focused on producing its ITV-1 therapeutic and multiple anti-HIV monoclonal antibodies using its proprietary methodology described above in this report. The Company's ITV-1 has been successfully tested in clinical trials, and the Company is initiating production. The Company's primary anti-HIV monoclonal antibody (Clone 3) has been produced and successfully tested in vitro against multiple virus strains, showing complete efficacy. The recombinant form of the parent antibody (necessary for patient therapy) has been successfully produced for the Company by Samsung Biologics. This recombinant Antibody is undergoing efficacy testing and has shown significant activity even against drug-resistant HIV strains. Studies have confirmed the dual tropic activity of the HIV monoclonal antibody - Clone 3. The Company CSO Dr. Joseph Cotropia said, "For HIV to be infectious, there is a requirement of specific binding between the virus envelope protein and the human CD4 cell at two receptor sites on the CD4 cells, namely: (1) binding to CD4 receptor initially (on gp120), and (2) binding to the chemokine co-receptors CXCR4 and/or CCR5 (on gp41). The Clone 3 Antibody interrupts the binding of the virus transmembrane gp41 to the human CD4 cells via blocking of binding to the 2nd co-receptor-to both the CCR5 and the CXCR4 receptors-on the CD4 cell surface. Because Clone 3 is dual-tropic, it consequently prevents HIV infection by abrogating the essential infectivity process which requires the fusion between the viral membrane and the human CD4 cell membrane." In view of the test results completed on the Company's Clone 3 Monoclonal Antibody and ITV-1 activity, plans are in place to assess combination therapy using these 2 therapeutics to treat HIV. The Companies A.I. analysis, coupled with the ability to produce targeted monoclonal antibodies, allows the Company to produce effective antibodies against multiple human and animal viruses. With this focus, A.I. analysis has been completed on each of the following viruses in preparation for the production of anti-monoclonal antibodies for use in the treatment of these human and animal viruses: HIV-2, SARS-CoV-2, H1N1 Influenza, HTLV1 & HTLV2, Influenza A and B, Herpes Simplex I & II, Anthrax, Smallpox, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Equine Infectious Anemia Virus, Feline Leukemia Virus, Feline Immunodeficiency Virus, Elephant Endotheliotropic Virus. Enzolytics Artificial Intelligence Platform Enzolytics has a wholly owned Artificial Intelligence platform that drives: Early Drug Discovery and Development Builds a valuable Intellectual Property Portfolio Allows for strategic entry into the personalized medicine market The Healthcare A.I. market is expected to be $34 Billion in 5 years. Enzolytics A.I. platform is unique because it has been driving the Company's discoveries and Drug development. A.I. has helped Enzolytics move beyond big pharma's monoclonal antibody discovery and development. As a result, Enzolytics continues to forge ahead to identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets, design innovative diagnostic and prognostic tests, and expand the Company's Patent portfolio. Enzolytics' long-term plan is to be a serious contender in the personalized medicine market. Enzolytics continues to partner with technology, genetics, diagnostic and regulatory companies with that strategy in each of these areas: Artificial Intelligence Platform for Genomic Surveillance and monitoring of virus epidemiology Application of A.I. to analyze the amino acid sequences of the targeted viruses to identify conserved immutable and neutralizable sites on the targeted viruses. An extensive A.I. analysis of 2.8 million SARS-CoV-2 isolates confirmed the 19 immutable sites to be conserved in ALL Variants of Concern and Variants of Interest. The Company's Artificial Intelligence platform has been used to build 3D Models of all the 19 conserved targets. The analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein revealed that all epitopes identified by the Company are linear on the spike proteins, accessible by antibodies, neutralizable, and unaffected by mutations. An extensive A.I. analysis of 87,500 HIV isolates confirmed eight immutable sites on the HIV. A.I. confirmed the KLIC amino acid binding site sequences targeted by the Company's primary anti-HIV monoclonal Antibody are 100% conserved. The KLIC binding site on HIV has remained unchanged in the past decades, as confirmed by the Company's analysis of the Los Alamos National Database of HIV sequences. This means that even mutations of the HIV will contain this neutralizable site, and virus escape will not occur in treatment with the Company's anti-HIV Antibody. A comprehensive A.I. protocol for producing monoclonal antibodies, including implementing A.I. analysis of existing viruses and any new virus immediately upon its emergence globally. Dr. Chandra, the Company COO, discussed the significance of this protocol in an article published in The Yuan on December 20, 2021. Collaboration with biotechnology companies and veterinary institutions in early drug discovery and development programs, increasing safety, efficacy, and probability of success. A joint paper published by Enzolytics in conjunction with Intel Corporation provides more details regarding this collaboration. A.I. is a significant driver for advancing healthcare. Understanding the Human Microbiome will be pivotal to that transformation, to unlock the potential of the Human Microbiome by utilizing Artificial Intelligence. Enzolytics is building on the consortium to utilize A.I. to assess the effects of nutrition, genetics, and the human microbiome on diseases. This is a part of the Company's long-term strategy to enter the personalized medicine market and build a strong I.P. portfolio. Build prediction models for infectious diseases (preferably COVID), mental health disorders, and chronic medical diseases. Identify biomarkers for infectious diseases and chronic medical diseases. Identify novel targets and clear intervention strategies for infectious and chronic medical diseases. A.I. Driven Diagnostics Enzolytics is developing Artificial Intelligence for in-vitro diagnostic tests that diagnose viral diseases based on the presence of the conserved sites that remain unaffected by mutations. Enzolytics has identified conserved targets for many infectious diseases for humans and animals. The Company has identified conserved targets for SARS-CoV-2, HIV, rabies, influenza A, influenza B, HTLV1, Herpes, Smallpox, Monkey Pox, Ebola, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Equine Infectious Anemia, Feline leukemia virus, Feline immunodeficiency virus, and Koala Retrovirus. The Company has published more information in its Press Release of February 21, 2022. Documented studies show better clinical outcomes and delayed progression of diseases if patients have the antibodies to the conserved targets. Enzolytics is working on prognostic tests utilizing A.I. to predict the immune response before receiving viral therapy. This will allow physicians to understand if a patient will respond to a particular antiviral treatment. More information on this technology has been presented by Dr. Chandra, the Company's COO, and published in The Yuan on April 4, 2022. Intellectual Property (I.P.)
