BALTIMORE, Sept. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Greater Cannabis Company, Inc. (“GCANRx” or the “Company”) (OTC: GCAN) a publicly traded biopharmaceutical company pioneering development of next generation therapeutics is pleased to announce that the Company and its scientific advisor, Dr. Adi Aran, has been featured in the American Journal of Endocannabinoid Medicine (AJEM).
The feature, which can be found here, discusses the autism-cannabis connection and the mounting evidence of the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis on neuropsychiatric disorders. The author, Larry Luxnor, quotes a number of medical specialists calling for evidence-based studies to direct the treatment of patients using cannabinoids. “There’s great basic science on the endocannabinoid system, but a lack of well-defined, evidence-based scientific studies,” one of the medical specialists, Dr. Exelbert, said. “That’s why cannabinoids—and studies like the one Dr. Aran is conducting are so important”, stated Luxor.
On July 5th, GCANRx announced that it has been granted final approval for its double blind, placebo controlled Phase II Clinical Trial for the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) from the Israel Ministry of Health. The primary objective of the clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of GCANRx’s proprietary therapeutic in pediatric patients (between 4 and 13 years of age) using a daily oral treatment. The patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either GCANRx’s therapeutic or a matched placebo. The primary efficacy objective of the study will be to assess the effect of the neuroprotective therapeutic compared to placebo on behavioral problems.
