The Danish biopharmaceutical manufacturer DanCann Pharma has established the high-tech production facility, Biotech Pharm1 ("BP1"), in order to be able to produce standardized medicinal cannabis products. The facility is built based on best practice from the pharmaceutical industry in combination with advanced environmentally controlled agricultural technology and vertical agriculture.

BP1 is designed to supply cannabis ingredients to the global market in accordance with EU Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards. BP1 can copy and control microclimatic conditions very closely and accurately without interference from external environmental factors. This provides complete and specific control over all cultivation cells in the facility and makes it possible to mimic unique cultivation conditions in relation to the specific plant genetics. This level of control and precision ensures consistent results, yield and product safety.

Jeppe Krog Rasmussen, CEO of DanCann Pharma, comments:

- DanCann Pharma's cannabis genetics respond extremely well to the unique growth conditions and practices found in BP1. These genetics are the basis of the entire facility, and our products will be completely similar from batch to batch. A standardized cannabis product enables doctors to monitor the dose and the effect of medicinal cannabis in the same way as for other kinds of certified medication. Unlike other medication, the cannabis plant does not have a fixed chemical/molecular composition. Cannabis contains hundreds of different substances, and each individual plant is different in terms of its composition, 

No two cannabis plants are the same. Ultimately, the complete ‘fingerprint’ of the plant determines its effect. THC and CBD are the best-known substances, but there are dozens to hundreds of other known and unknown substances in the plant that may have an effect.

Jeppe Krog Rasmussen elaborates:

- Cannabis must be standardized so that each variety of medicinal cannabis has a unique, fully standardized genetic composition that is and remains the same each time, for every batch, year in, year out, with a systemized and unique production process. The result is that the CBD and THC levels are always the same, but the other substances are also always present in the same ratio. The reproducible chemical profile enables doctors to monitor the dose and the effect on the disorder in the same way as for other certified medication.

Standardized cannabis is extremely important to the patient, because just like ‘normal’ medication, all patients are ‘set’ on a certain variety. Sometimes it can take a long time to get patients on the right variety with exactly the right dose based on the existing varieties. The same applies to the use of cannabis oil. Changing the dose or administering medication with a different genetic composition can have adverse consequences for individual patients.

Jeppe Krog Rasmussen comments:

- Quite rightly, doctors want to know exactly what they give to their patients and what its effects are. It takes a lot of time and effort for doctors to become used to prescribing cannabis. The reproducible chemical profile of standardized medicinal cannabis enables doctors to monitor the dose and the effectiveness in the same way as for other certified medication. As this medicinal cannabis is also produced in accordance with pharmaceutical standards, quality and safety are guaranteed as much as possible.
