• Lexaria, a global specialist in drug delivery platforms, just announced the final results from its recently completed human Pilot Study #1 on the effectiveness of its patented DehydraTECH(TM) technology on the oral delivery of GLP-1 drug, semaglutide
• The results showed improved delivery of semaglutide to the bloodstream, with the drug showing approximately 44% higher levels than the control 24 hours after ingestion of a single dose
• DehydraTECH GLP-1 processed semaglutide also proved to be better tolerated than the control, with the latter resulting in some cases of moderate nausea and diarrhea
• This milestone brings Lexaria closer to tapping into the diabetes and weight loss treatment market and sets the company up for what is expected to be its best year

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, just announced the final results from its recently completed human Pilot Study #1 that sought to evaluate the effectiveness of its patented DehydraTECH(TM) technology on the oral delivery of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (“GLP-1”) drug semaglutide, available commercially in the branded product Rybelsus(R). The drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), given its role in promoting insulin production in the body, which ultimately reduces blood glucose (https://ibn.fm/UGKtr).

Most notable from its pilot study was the improved delivery of semaglutide to the bloodstream, which significantly improved blood sugar control. For one, in just 20 minutes after oral administration, the DehydraTECH GLP-1 blood semaglutide level was about 261% higher than that of the Control, a statistic that reflected the technology’s ability to deliver drugs into the bloodstream faster. In addition, 24 hours after the ingestion of a single dose, the DehydraTECH GLP-1 blood semaglutide levels were approximately 44% higher than the Control levels.

The Rybelsus control witnessed a large increase in blood-glucose levels after eating a standardized meal at the 240-minute mark and a standardized snack at the 360-minute mark. But the DehydraTECH processed Rybelsus continued to reduce blood glucose even after eating. In addition, even as long as 24 hours after dose administration, Lexaria’s DehydraTECH GLP-1 showed a 5.01% reduction in blood glucose level relative to baseline, an indicator of greater efficacy in achieving blood glucose reduction, and helping attenuate the postprandial spikes in blood glucose experienced in the control group.

DehydraTECH GLP-1 processed semaglutide also proved better tolerated than the Rybelsus tablets, with the latter resulting in instances of moderate nausea and moderate diarrhea.

Lexaria first announced its intention to explore DehydraTECH’s effectiveness on GLP-1 drugs in September 2023. From the beginning, the goal was to achieve superior pharmacokinetic (“PK”) performance with the technology with reduced side effects and enhanced health benefits. With the just-released final results, Lexaria has achieved these objectives and more, ultimately setting itself up for additional human and animal studies in the 2024 calendar year.

This milestone brings Lexaria closer to tapping into the diabetes treatment market, valued at $92.97 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $118.77 billion by 2028 (https://ibn.fm/lsAji). It also marks an excellent start to the new year 2024, propping the company up for what will be its best year yet. Lexaria is already preparing for other human and animal studies to continue, details of which will be shared in the coming weeks.

• Ucore, a company engaged in the exploration for and separation and scalable production of REEs in Canada and the US, views China’s recent ban on the export of technology to produce rare earth permanent magnets as an opportunity
• Through this ban, the company looks to grow and assert its dominance in the sector, all while doing away with dependence on China
• This is made possible by its RapidSX(TM) technology, which it has been slowly perfecting
• It is also made possible by its  Demonstration Program, along with its Louisianna facility that sets it on track to separating friendly REEs and OEMs by 2025

Ucore Rare Metals (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF), engaged in the exploration for and separation and scalable production of rare earth elements (“REEs”) in Canada and the U.S., is looking to double down on its unique method of separation and refining of rare earth elements, an approach that it is confident will assert its market dominance, and stamp its position as an industry leader. This comes in the wake of China announcing a ban on the export of technology to produce rare earth permanent magnets, along with the ban on technology associated with the separation of REEs in what experts in the field have termed as an “REE race” (https://ibn.fm/ehEYY).

On December 21, 2023, China announced that it had banned all exports of technology to produce rare earth permanent magnets, citing national security concerns. It also confirmed the existing ban on technology associated with separating REEs. This followed the introduction of export permits for chipmaking materials – gallium and germanium – back in August, followed by similar requirements for other types of graphite in December 2023. The move was considered a wake-up call for the West and their dependence on China for the rare earth’s supply.

“This should be a clarion call that dependence on China in any part of the value chain is not sustainable,” noted Nathan Picarsic, the co-founder of Horizon Advisory, a geopolitical consulting firm.

Ucore views this as an opportunity to grow and assert its dominance in the sector. Its management has referred to these events as “remarkable,” coming just in time given its recent commencement of the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”) Demonstration Program.

“Ucore’s focus on the separation and refining of these critical materials is of increasing strategic importance to the burgeoning North American rare earth supply chain,” noted Pat Ryan, Ucore’s Chairman and CEO.

“Our recently commenced US DoD Demonstration Program could not come at a more important time,” he added (https://ibn.fm/P1XBU).

Ucore has been committed to and vocal about developing its technology and weakening China’s mineral dominance using its RapidSX(TM) technology. It is slowly perfecting and ultimately commercializing the separation and purification of critical metals in a significant move that would slash reliance on China, which currently controls 90% of refined rare earth output. Its focus over the years has been on perfecting its process, all while re-establishing a North American supply chain.

“Our goal is to re-establish a North American rare earths supply chain,” noted Michael Schrider, Ucore’s COO (https://ibn.fm/edOli).

The recent developments in China point to how integral Ucore’s initiatives are, not just for North America but for the West as a whole. Having made incredible headway over the years, it is also a beacon of hope and a trailblazer in an industry dominated by Chinese players. Already, the company is on track to commercially separate friendly sources of REEs and OEMs with rare earth oxides (“REOs”) required to produce rare earth magnets by 2025. This will be made possible by its Demonstration Program and Alexandria, Louisiana facility, with an estimated throughput of 7,500 tons of total rare earth oxides per annum.

• Agencies and nonprofits serving domestic violence victims are seeing an increase in victim numbers
• With typical pressures on funding, governments require a cost-effective solution that can help keep victims safe while maintaining supervision of domestic violence offenders under court-ordered supervision
• SuperCom’s PureSecurity electronic monitoring suite offers governments a cost-effective solution for monitoring offenders through GPS monitoring, home detention, domestic violence prevention, and more

SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB), a provider of secured solutions for the e-government, IoT, and cybersecurity sector, is on a mission to revolutionize the public safety sector worldwide through proprietary electronic monitoring technology, data intelligence, and complementary services.  The company’s technology comes at a time when there is an increased need for cost-effective monitoring solutions for dealing with various offenders’ populations such as domestic violence offenders, prison inmates, and more.

In the case of the United States, victims of domestic violence turn to local agencies and nonprofits for services and support. Many of these establishments utilize federal funding to run their operations – primarily funding established through the Victims of Crime Act (“VOCA”). Funding through VOCA has decreased over the last five years, and these agencies and nonprofits are often forced to downsize their operations despite the growing number of domestic violence victims. This further pressures the government to implement the most cost-effective solutions for dealing with offenders and keeping victims safe.

Berg Insight reported that the total market for the electronic monitoring of offenders in the United States, Europe, and Latin America, totaled $1.2 billion in 2021. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.8%, resulting in an estimated value of $2.1 billion by 2026. The market’s growth can be attributed to the growing adoption of GPS-based and smartphone-based solutions. The evolution of technology is also a contributing factor, with modern data analytics tools making it increasingly possible to identify offender behavior patterns and possibly predict future electronic monitoring violations or offenses (https://ibn.fm/3GcyQ).

SuperCom’s proprietary PureSecurity suite is an all-in-one, field-proven offender monitoring system, with services such as GPS monitoring, home detention, domestic violence prevention, and more. The suite is specifically tailored to meet each client’s needs. By leveraging the power of AI, SuperCom’s PureSecurity platform can offer new abilities, such as amplified data analysis, predictive modeling, and streamlined automation – geared toward optimizing decision-making and operational efficiency.

SuperCom’s technology offers competitive advantages, including:

• Long Battery Life (No Tag Charging Required)
• Ultra Lightweight Form Factor
• Next-Gen Location Tech
• Protection of Domestic Violence Victims
• And More

SuperCom’s PureSecurity suite for electronic monitoring under court-ordered programs includes the company’s GPS enrollee digital tracking platform PureTrack, the PureTag wearable RF bracelet, the PureOne one-piece tracking device, and the home-based PureCom station. The solution makes it more affordable for governments to track domestic violence offenders, reducing the number of incarcerations, reducing costs, and maintaining their dedication to protecting the victims of acts of domestic violence.

Ordan Trabelsi, SuperCom’s President and CEO, said in a November 14, 2023 press release that the company was uniquely positioned to capitalize on the increasing global demand for secured electronic monitoring solutions is strategically investing in the continuous improvement of its offerings, extending its reach into new markets, which is already yielding promising results in the U.S. and other regions (https://ibn.fm/Dagog). “Our focus remains on driving innovation, enhancing operational efficiencies, and delivering exceptional value to our customers and stakeholders,” Trabelsi said. “We are confident that our strategic decisions will further propel us towards achieving our long-term objectives and securing SuperCom’s position as a leader in the industry.”

SOBRsafe (NASDAQ: SOBR) is a provider of a game-changing transdermal (touch-based) alcohol detection technology that can improve workplace safety and provides advanced screening and monitoring solutions for the behavioral health industry.

Alcohol misuse is the fourth leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., and the seventh worldwide. Nearly half of all industrial accidents with injuries are alcohol-related, and 1-in-10 U.S. commercial drivers tests positive for alcohol – the highest rate in the world. Despite these statistics, prevention and monitoring solutions have not kept pace with this epidemic. Legacy detection technologies are invasive and inefficient, unhygienic and unconnected. SOBRsafe believes there is a better way.

The company has developed a patent-pending alcohol detection device called SOBRcheck(TM) for use in detecting alcohol in humans, with just the touch of a finger. SOBRsafe’s next-generation transdermal technology detects and instantaneously reports the presence of alcohol as emitted through a user’s skin. No breath, blood or urine sample is required. SOBRsafe believes its technology is a superior, hygienic alternative to traditional breathalyzers for frontline, preventative applications.

With a powerful backend data platform, SOBRsafe provides humane, passive and connected alcohol detection for the behavioral health, transportation, oil and gas, judicial and consumer markets.

A preventative solution in historically reactive industries, SOBRsafe technology is being deployed for commercial fleets, workplaces, alcohol rehabilitation, probation management and teen drivers. This monitoring technology helps prevent intoxicated workers from taking the factory floor or drivers from receiving the keys to a truck, bus or family car. An offender is immediately flagged, and an administrator is empowered to take the appropriate corrective actions.

SOBRsafe technology is commercially available for access control (SOBRcheck), wearable use (SOBRsure(TM)) and licensing or white labeling.

The company is headquartered in the Denver (“CO”) Technology Center.

• Tokenized securities that tie digital coins to real world assets are gaining popularity as a safer outlet for investors experimenting with playing in the emerging blockchain-enabled marketplace
• Many leading investment asset managers are predicting tokenization will become the future of the marketplace and “the next generation” of securities investing
• Diamond Lake Minerals is helping investors who are interested in the emerging market but wary of the unknowns to bridge the divide and investigate digital securities through investment in more traditional assets that are imbued with SEC-registered security token offerings (“STOs”)
• STOs provide investors with the relative security of a government-regulated offering, and a growing number of governments worldwide are following suit

The potential of high returns on investment continues to create a draw for digital assets in the emerging blockchain-enabled marketplace, even though most investors aren’t experts on blockchain technology. Many find themselves continually challenged to evaluate the competing claims of tokenized companies and the benefits of the varied specialized purposes the tokens may serve.

World-leading asset manager BlackRock ($7 trillion under management) CEO Larry Fink made news about the staying power of digital assets in November when he said, “The next generation for markets, the next generation for securities, will be tokenization of securities,” at a New York Times DealBook event (https://ibn.fm/D3DGT).

Other serious financial market players also have stated tokens are “a much bigger story than cryptocurrencies” and are central to the future of finance, sparking a drive to update institutional strategies. Key to the blockchain marketplace is its emphasis on “transparency” in non-fiat transactions (despite the exception of the more controversial “privacy token” sector), and a recent Forbes opinion piece argued that transactions can be transparent without revealing all user data (https://ibn.fm/aeXaF).

Multi-strategy operating company Diamond Lake Minerals (OTC: DLMI) has experienced rapid growth during the past reporting semester as it has reinvented itself with an aim of becoming a leading player in this evolving security token space.

To avoid the pitfalls of some digital tokens that have become the target of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) enforcement actions in recent months, DLMI is “solely focused on a regulated environment,” Diamond Lake CEO Brian J. Esposito said during a Dec. 20 interview with financial media outlet Benzinga (https://ibn.fm/RXQ0E).

Its effort to bridge the divide between traditional, stock-and-bond-based wealth and digital asset finance has resulted in a model that involves building a vertically integrated ecosystem of industry-agnostic holdings with a broad market reach, and then creating a U.S. SEC-registered security token offering for each of them. 

Investors interested in music and other aspects of the entertainment industry, media, healthcare, real estate and numerous other sectors may find a prospect that appeals to them amid DLMI’s holdings, and can then use the STO in their investment as a seamless, uncomplicated means of sticking a toe into the tokenized security pool to test the waters.

Diamond Lake’s vertically integrated ecosystem will help them “share resources, support one another, and ensure that if there’s a downside in one industry or segment, that we have a diversified model to help keep everything afloat and everything growing,” Esposito said during a November interview (https://ibn.fm/rqOni).

Japan, the first country to impose an outright ban on privacy tokens that prioritize anonymity over transparency (https://ibn.fm/oDCVf), has inversely signaled its faith in the potential of tokenized securities as a means of allowing investors to move reserves from “near-zero interest bank deposits” to “riskier, higher return investments,” launching its first digital securities trading on Christmas Day (https://ibn.fm/CsA9e).

The country’s move is emblematic of the impetus digital assets are gaining in the marketplace.

“I love working in the regulated environment because it’s a place that helps ensure protecting people,” Esposito said.
