Rhea-AI Summary

Awakn Life Sciences Corp. (CSE: AWKN) (OTCQB: AWKNF) has announced the screening of the first patient in its landmark 'MORE-KARE' Phase 3 trial of AWKN-001 for severe Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). This trial, co-funded by the UK's Medical Research Council, National Institute for Health and Care Research, and Awakn, aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ketamine-assisted therapy for AUD.

The study will assess the impact of a single treatment cycle of AWKN-001, which combines intravenous ketamine with psycho-social support. The primary endpoint is the reduction in heavy drinking days over six months post-treatment. With a total cost of £2.4 million (CAD 4.2 million), this is the largest study of its kind and could potentially revolutionize AUD treatment.
