BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., June 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Rich Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCPK: RCHA) ("Rich" or the "Company"), announced today it has entered into an additional agreement with Theradex Systems, Inc. ("Theradex"), a leading global Contract Research Organization ("CRO"), to assist the Company in submitting a protocol to the US FDA for Hodgkin's Lymphoma under the company's existing Investigational New Drug Application (IND).

Hodgkin's lymphoma is a cancer that is found most frequently in two different age groups: 15 – 35 and over 55, and occurs in both sexes although it is more common in males and individuals with HIV. Malignant Reed Sternberg cells invade and destroy the architecture of the lymph nodes and infiltrate major organs such as the liver and spleen.  Radiation and chemotherapy are used routinely but these treatments can later result in morbidity and mortality as a result of causing second malignancies.  In the U.S., over 100,000 people suffer from Hodgkin's lymphoma.
