Following a period of significant achievement over the last year, including entering our lead programme into the clinic and advancing our second programme to be clinic-ready, we’re looking to appoint an experienced Head of Drug Discovery and Development to join our team. Our new Head of Drug Discovery and Development will have responsibility for bringing pipeline assets into the clinic and prosecuting our therapeutic programmes to industry standards, with a particular focus on developing our proprietary library of 475 #cannabinoid derivatives, as well as providing both additional scientific expertise and further commercial focus. The ideal candidate should have: senior scientific/biological leadership gained from SME/biotech; a track record of successfully pursuing IND strategies and advancing candidate molecules for IND/CTA enabling studies; and an interest in the pain therapeutic area. An interest in oncology, rare diseases, and in cannabinoid therapeutics, would also be an advantage.

Our #OCTP Chief Medical Officer, Tim Corn, spoke to StockBox to discuss the appointment of iNGENū CRO to conduct a Phase I #ClinicalTrial for our second programme, OCT130401. OCT130401 is a combination of synthetic phytocannabinoids (pCBs) and a medical device for the effective, safe, and non-addictive treatment of chronic and severe pain conditions. The initial target for OCT130401 is trigeminal neuralgia, which is a #ChronicPain condition that causes an excruciating, stabbing, electric shock-like facial pain. #TrigeminalNeuralgia has a fast and unexpected onset, making it difficult to treat and each episode may last only a few seconds, but some people will suffer multiple (up to 100) episodes during a single day. #cannabinoids Watch the full video below ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eyKa-yu8

We are pleased to announce that Oxford Cannabinoid Technologies Holdings Plc has entered into agreement with iNGENū CRO to conduct a Phase I randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of OCT130401. iNGENū is an Australia-based, globally focused contract research organisation (CRO) possessing extensive experience working in the cannabinoid pharmaceutical drug development and clinical research industry. OCT130401 is a combination of synthetic phytocannabinoids (pCBs) and a medical device for the effective, safe, and non-addictive treatment of chronic and severe pain conditions. The initial target for OCT130401 is trigeminal neuralgia (TN), which is a chronic pain condition that causes an excruciating, stabbing, electric shock-like facial pain. Clarissa Sowemimo-Coker, Chief Executive Officer of OCT, said: "I am pleased to announce that OCT has selected iNGENū as its CRO partner for our Phase I clinical trial for our second programme, OCT130401, targeting Trigeminal Neuralgia. iNGENū is a well-recognised CRO, with a specific expertise in cannabinoids and the Australia regime also affords a direct path to US FDA approval which is an important target for the Company. Today's appointment and our confirmation that clinical trials will begin in Q2 2024 demonstrate that OCT continues to hit its milestones and is making good progress." Dr Sud Agarwal, Chief Executive Officer of iNGENū, said: "We are delighted to be OCT's CRO partner in its first Australia-based clinical trial. Whilst many people are aware of the financial benefits of the Australian research regime, many are less aware of the world-class clinical research units and the favourable regulatory laws, allowing rapid study start-up. We look forward to kicking off this work, which is aiming to meet a significant unmet need for people living with Trigeminal Neuralgia." Read more below ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eexvP9Fa
