Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure


On May 15, 2017, AXIM Biotechnologies, Inc. issued a press release which announced that information on the company’s Bioavailability Study on Dronabinol in a controlled-release, functional chewing gum form was now available on National Institutes of Health website https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03098940?term=axim&rank=1 officially titled “A Two Part, Open Label, Randomized, Four Period Cross-over Study to Compare the Bioavailability of Two Different Dronabinol Formulations in Healthy Male and Female Volunteers.” The Company believes that the clinical study will pave the scientific foundation for AXIM and its controlled-substance API partner to co-develop a dronabinol-based functional, controlled-release chewing gum product. The new dronabinol chewing gum product will be bioequivalent to Marinol®, and will be used to help treat patients with chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting and AIDS patients experiencing appetite and weight loss.


The information set forth under this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and, as a result, such information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such Section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
