Cannabis Science (CBIS) Announces Positive Results in California Test Run of Its Pure Decarboxylated CO2 Oil (PDCO) Released Through the Cannabis Science Research Foundation (CSRF) to 15 Dispensaries & Several Less Fortunate, Self-Medicating Patients for

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO--(Marketwired - Nov 25, 2015) -  Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTC PINK: CBIS), a U.S. company specializing in the development of cannabis-based medicines, today announced positive results from its initial test run of its Pure Decarboxylated CO2 Oil (PDCO) released through the Cannabis Science Research Foundation (CSRF or the Foundation) to 15 dispensaries and several less fortunate self-medicating patients.

This trial, collaborative rollout by CSRF, as contracted by Cannabis Science to the California not-for-profit, was designed to meet two primary goals. The first, to conduct tests on the efficacy of the product for patients; the second, to gather proprietary data based on testimonials from real self-medicating consumers from their firsthand experiences. The feedback received will be used to influence the Company's continuing efforts to bring the best cannabinoid-based formulations to market in multiple regulated jurisdictions.

The CBIS Branded product was distributed to 15 dispensaries in California for testing, but will see a much wider distribution when the compound comes fully to market, particularly given the positive initial results. The Foundation released the Cannabis Science PDCO batch approximately three months ago, selling half the product to California dispensaries while giving the remaining product to less fortunate patients in need of treatment, who demonstrated financial hardship and met the legal criteria for prescription of this cannabis-based formulation under state law. 

"It is always amazing to hear when your Company's product has changed a patient's life. We had an overwhelming amount of positive feedback with our PDCO collaborative trial, which was consistent with past experience. Even in such a short time, the oil was able to significantly improve the symptoms of a man who has suffered from Multiple Sclerosis for the past twelve years. It is heartwarming and very encouraging to hear that our outstanding team is changing lives with our product, and that our dispensary customers are so eager to stock our compound," said Cannabis Science CEO and President, Raymond C. Dabney. "While not a part of the trial, we even had some patients give samples of their treatments to their suffering pets with spectacular results. This reinforces our optimistic outlook on our upcoming Equi-Pharm product lines."

With clinical trials on the agenda for the Cannabis Science team, the knowledge obtained with this trial run from self-medicating patients in California will continue to add to the compelling data that drives the process in creating the best products possible. The Company will move forward to continue building the brand and give consumers the confidence they should have in the products they buy and use to improve their health.
