$IMLFF Initiates Discovery & Pre-clinical Work on Orofacial Pain

InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“InMed”) (CSE:IN)(OTCQB:IMLFF), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that specializes in developing safer, more effective cannabis-based therapies, today announced that it has initiated a program to identify and evaluate cannabinoid compounds for the treatment of chronic orofacial pain. Initial drug discovery and preclinical development is currently underway in collaboration with members of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of British Columbia. The work is being funded by a grant from Mitacs, a leading Canadian organization that accelerates innovative projects through strategic academic and industry collaboration.

Dr. Sazzad Hossain, CSO, states, “Pain in the orofacial region is one of the more complex and difficult-to-treat conditions for patients and clinicians. Current treatments are limited in terms of efficacy and are fraught with considerable side effects. Recent advances in cannabinoid pharmacology have renewed hope for these patients with the exciting prospect of safer, more effective cannabis-based treatments. Under this collaboration Inmed will investigate the role of cannabinoid receptors in chronic orofacial pain, including neuropathic pain, muscle pain and arthritis of the jaw joint.”

A Mitacs grant was awarded to Dr. Hayes Wong, a Ph.D. level researcher, with extensive experience in developing orofacial models of pain. Dr. Wong will be working with Prof. Brian Cairns a specialist in research for chronic pain above the neck. In conjunction with InMed, the Mitacs grant will be utilized to screen selected InMed compounds in orofacial pain models.
