IHL-216A observed to have a neuroprotective effect in a rodent model of sports concussion; rapidly restores spatial memory post-concussion
Highlights:
● The study compared IHL-216A to its component drugs, cannabidiol (CBD) and isoflurane, in a model developed in collaboration with the US National Football League (NFL)
● IHL-216A restored spatial memory after twenty-four hours in injured rodent models whilst those that only received the vehicle as treatment did not have restored spatial memory
● Treatment with CBD only partially restored spatial memory compared to IHL-216A, further supporting the benefits of Incannex’s patented novel drug combination compared to CBD alone
● Incannex now targets a pre-IND meeting with the U.S. FDA in Q3 2022 to discuss an expedited clinical trial program.
