Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 10, 2021, InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 which ended September 30, 2021. The below paragraphs restate the original paragraphs under the subtitle “INM-088 for the treatment of glaucoma” in their entirety, with a correction in the third paragraph replacing the word “fiscal” with “calendar”.
“INM-088 for the treatment of glaucoma
On August 17, 2021, InMed presented preclinical data at the H.C. Wainwright Ophthalmology Conference demonstrating that cannabinol (“CBN”) was effective at providing neuroprotection to the retina ganglion cells and reducing intraocular pressure in glaucoma models. InMed has continued to develop a larger scale drug product manufacturing process, completed dose-ranging studies and conducted topline clinical study design work with its clinical research organization.
Data from preclinical studies of INM-088 show the effectiveness of cannabinol at reducing cell death in retinal ganglion cells, an indication of potential neuroprotection which may lead to extended retention of vision in glaucoma and other ocular diseases.
We continue to work towards completing our preclinical studies of our glaucoma program in preparation for human clinical trials and estimate to file regulatory applications in the second half of calendar year 2022 seeking to initiate human clinical testing with INM-088.”
