Incannex Healthcare Limited (Nasdaq: IXHL) is a clinical stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to developing innovative medical cannabis products for the treatment of several major health conditions, including Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)/Concussion, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and Inflammatory Lung Conditions. The company holds an Australian license to import, export, and distribute medicinal cannabis products and has launched a diverse line of cannabinoid-based products.

Incannex recently announced the commencement of patient dosing in a Phase 2 clinical trial for their proprietary combination drug candidate, IHL-675A. This drug, composed of Hydroxychloroquine Sulphate (HCQ) and cannabidiol (CBD), is designed to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The trial aims to measure pain and function improvement over a 24-week period using the RAPID-3 assessment. 128 participants across 10 study sites in Australia will be part of this double-blind study, with some receiving IHL-675A, CBD, HCQ, or a placebo.

Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Mark Bleackley highlighted the trial as a significant milestone, emphasizing that RA affects millions globally and that IHL-675A has the potential to meet unmet needs in this area. The trial includes regular monitoring through blood tests, physical exams, and MRI scans to assess joint inflammation and damage.

Previously, in 2022 and 2023, Incannex successfully conducted a Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of IHL-675A. The results showed that the drug was well tolerated with no serious adverse events, indicating its potential as a viable treatment option. Interestingly, the trial pointed out that the uptake of CBD in IHL-675A might be faster than the reference drug Epidiolex, while the uptake of HCQ might be slower compared to Plaquenil. This could offer patients quicker relief from inflammation and extended relief from pain.

Through their ongoing projects and trials, Incannex Healthcare is positioning itself as a leader in the pharmaceutical industry, focusing on the potential benefits of cannabinoids and psychedelic medicine therapies for unmet medical needs.
