NanoViricides, Inc. to Present at the RHK Capital Disruptive Growth Conference in New York City on December 6th at 1:20pm ET

SHELTON, CT / ACCESSWIRE / December 5, 2022 / NanoViricides, Inc. (NYSE Amer. NNVC) (the "Company"), announces that the Company's President, Dr. Anil Diwan, will be presenting a talk at the RHK Capital Disruptive Growth Conference in New York City on December 6th at 1:20pm ET. The presentation will be webcast and can be seen at https://www.wsw.com/admin/link/presenter.aspx?429387459.

Dr. Diwan will discuss the Company's lead drug candidate, NV-CoV-2 for the treatment of COVID-19 and long covid. A highly effective, broad-spectrum drug candidate like NV-CoV-2 is an unmet need in the COVID-19 pandemic that is now entering the endemic phase, with novel variants arising continuously. Recent variants have led to reduced effectiveness of vaccines, including the newest ‘bivalent' vaccines, and have led to all of the antibodies losing emergency use authorizations (EUAs) due to loss of effectiveness. Paxlovid (Pfizer) has been found to be of no benefit except in patients that are at high risk of severe disease due to co-morbidities such as diabetes. However, its use is restricted even in those populations due to interactions with other life-saving drugs that the patient may be required to take. Thus NV-CoV-2, an antiviral agent that is expected to continue to work even as the virus keeps changing, is sorely needed for the global societies to resume normal functioning without accepting an undue cost in morbidity and mortality.

Dr. Diwan will also discuss the Company's rich pipeline of broad-spectrum drug candidates against many other viral diseases.

About NanoViricides

NanoViricides, Inc. (the "Company") (www.nanoviricides.com) is a development stage company that is creating special purpose nanomaterials for antiviral therapy. The Company's novel nanoviricide® class of drug candidates are designed to specifically attack enveloped virus particles and to dismantle them. Our lead drug candidate is NV-CoV-2 for the treatment of COVID-19 disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Our other advanced candidate is NV-HHV-1 for the treatment of Shingles (previously referred to as NV-HHV-101). The Company cannot project an exact date for filing an IND for any of its drugs because of dependence on a number of external collaborators and consultants. The Company is currently focused on advancing NV-Cov-2 into Phase ½ human clinical trials.

NV-CoV-2 is our nanoviricide drug candidate for COVID-19 that does not encapsulate remdesivir. NV-CoV-2-R is our other drug candidate for COVID-19 that is made up of NV-CoV-2 with remdesivir encapsulated within its polymeric micelles. The Company believes that since remdesivir is already US FDA approved, our drug candidate encapsulating remdesivir is likely to be an approvable drug, if safety is comparable. Remdesivir is developed by Gilead. The Company has developed both of its own drug candidates NV-CoV-2 and NV-CoV-2-R independently.

The Company is also developing drugs against a number of viral diseases including oral and genital Herpes, viral diseases of the eye including EKC and herpes keratitis, H1N1 swine flu, H5N1 bird flu, seasonal Influenza, HIV, Hepatitis C, Rabies, Dengue fever, and Ebola virus, among others. NanoViricides' platform technology and programs are based on the TheraCour® nanomedicine technology of TheraCour, which TheraCour licenses from AllExcel. NanoViricides holds a worldwide exclusive perpetual license to this technology for several drugs with specific targeting mechanisms in perpetuity for the treatment of the following human viral diseases: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV/AIDS), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Rabies, Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV), Influenza and Asian Bird Flu Virus, Dengue viruses, Japanese Encephalitis virus, West Nile Virus, Ebola/Marburg viruses, and certain Coronaviruses. The Company intends to obtain a license for poxviruses and/or enteroviruses if the initial research is successful. The Company's technology is based on broad, exclusive, sub-licensable, field licenses to drugs developed in these areas from TheraCour Pharma, Inc. The Company's business model is based on licensing technology from TheraCour Pharma Inc. for specific application verticals of specific viruses, as established at its foundation in 2005.

As is customary, the Company must state the risk factor that the path to typical drug development of any pharmaceutical product is extremely lengthy and requires substantial capital. As with any drug development efforts by any company, there can be no assurance at this time that any of the Company's pharmaceutical candidates would show sufficient effectiveness and safety for human clinical development. Further, there can be no assurance at this time that successful results against coronavirus in our lab will lead to successful clinical trials or a successful pharmaceutical product.
