BEVERLY HILLS, California, June 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nordicus Partners Corporation (OTCQB: NORD) (“Nordicus” or the “Company”), a biotech company specializing in developing breakthrough therapeutics in diseases with unmet medical needs, starting with oral disorders, is pleased to provide a corporate update, highlighting an overview of developments in its subsidiaries, Oricidin, Bio-Convert and NoviThera, and a status of the Company’s Nasdaq uplisting application.

Orocidin

Orocidin’s QR-01 targets aggressive periodontitis, a severe form of periodontal disease with no approved medical treatment. After completing two toxicology studies on hamsters spanning over 2 weeks and 8 weeks respectively, Orocidin has recently demonstrated QR-01’s efficacy in treating periodontitis in 2 different animal studies using two different methods. These successful studies allow the company to initiate the first human trials of QR-01.

Beagle study:

This 13-day small efficacy study conducted on beagle dogs with clinically confirmed periodontitis demonstrated consistent improvements across key clinical endpoints, including the Gingival Index (GI), the Plaque Index (PI) and overall periodontal disease. The animals were fasted for a minimum of 8 hours prior to assessment of the efficacy. QR-01 was well tolerated in the dogs, with no adverse side effects reported throughout the treatment period, which is significant.

Wistar Rat study:

Rats with induced periodontitis treated with QR-01 demonstrated improvements in Probing Depth (PD-mm), Gingival Index (GI), Bleeding on Probing (BOP) and Plaque Levels (PL).

More importantly, lower bone loss was demonstrated in treated rats compared to non-treated rats measured by micro-CT scanning. Until now, this has not been demonstrated.

In summary, Orocidin has now demonstrated efficacy in treating periodontitis in two different animals using 2 methods. This gives us great expectations in demonstrating efficacy in the upcoming trials in patients.

The first Phase IIa clinical trials study in patients is now anticipated to start in the first half of 2027 at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark.

Bio-Convert

Bio-Convert's QR-02 compound targets Oral Leukoplakia (OLK), which are potentially pre-cancerous lesions in the mouth, with up to a 30% conversion rate to oral cancer. No approved medical treatment exists for OLK, with surgery the only true alternative.

The company’s proprietary oral gel QR-02 has several unique advantages, including antitumor & antiviral effects, reducing the risk of dysplasia and enabling more precise and efficient treatment, compared to any methods used today.

Bio-Convert obtained a toxicity waiver from the Danish Medicine Agency’s (DKMA) for QR-02 and is currently finalizing its GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) product to be completed by December 2026 in Germany. Bio-Convert anticipates moving into Phase IIa clinical trials in Europe beginning the first half of 2027.

NoviThera

NoviThera’s QR-04 goal is to develop a novel anti-monoclonal antibody treatment designed to cure psoriasis or prevent its occurrence. Currently, no permanent cure for psoriasis exists, leading to a significant unmet medical need for patients and huge market potential.

NoviThera recently completed a study in mice, and with such study demonstrated biological proof of concept.

Uplisting

Nordicus applied to uplist its common shares from the OTCQB Market to a large prominent stock exchange and the process is still ongoing.
