Therapix Biosciences Ltd. (the “Company”) announced on March 20, 2018 that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared its Investigational New Drug application (IND) for THX-110 in the treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain. The Company expects to commence a Phase IIa Clinical Trial titled "Examining the Efficacy of THX-110 [Dronabinol (synthetic Δ9-tetrahydracannabinol) and Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)] for Chronic Low Back Pain" during the second quarter of 2018. The Phase IIa Clinical Trial is a single-arm, open-label trial, in which each subject receives one daily treatment of the drug via oral administration and is followed-up for a period of 6 weeks with an additional 2 weeks follow up after the last study treatment. Approximately 20 subjects are expected to participate and receive the drug in the context of the Clinical Trial at the Comprehensive Research Institute (CRI) in Hendersonville, TN, U.S.A. The primary endpoint of the Clinical Trial is to prove the safety, tolerance and efficacy of THX-110 in the treatment of adult patients suffering from chronic low back pain, with efficacy measured by the improvement of quality of life outcomes.
