Rhea-AI Summary

MIRA Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:MIRA) has announced positive results for its oral ketamine analog Ketamir-2 in a diabetic neuropathy animal model. The study demonstrated significant reduction in neuropathic pain symptoms, with some subjects achieving complete reversal to pre-diabetic baseline sensitivity.

The company is currently conducting a Phase I clinical trial at Hadassah Medical Center, with completion expected in Q4 2025. MIRA plans to initiate a Phase IIa trial in diabetic neuropathy patients by year-end, with first human efficacy data expected in H1 2026.

Ketamir-2 has shown superior performance compared to FDA-approved medications like pregabalin and gabapentin in preclinical studies. Unlike traditional ketamine, it doesn't cause dissociative effects and offers better blood-brain barrier penetration. The company is also developing a topical slow-release formulation and exploring applications for PTSD treatment.

Rhea-AI Summary

MIRA Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:MIRA) has signed a binding letter of intent to acquire SKNY Pharmaceuticals, securing a $5 million capital infusion. The acquisition includes SKNY-1, a preclinical-stage oral drug candidate targeting weight loss and smoking cessation.

The transaction will be executed through a stock exchange, with SKNY shareholders receiving MIRA common stock at a valuation determined by an independent third-party firm. The deal positions MIRA in two significant markets: the weight loss drug market, projected to exceed $150 billion by early 2030s, and the smoking cessation market, expected to reach $51 billion by 2030.

SKNY-1 is being developed to interact with cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 pathways for appetite, metabolism, and energy balance regulation. The drug aims to address limitations of current treatments, including severe side effects and the need for lifelong injections in existing weight loss medications.

The transaction is subject to a 90-day due diligence period, regulatory approvals, and board approvals.
