InMed Pharmaceuticals Announces Publication of Article on CBN as Possible Glaucoma Treatment

InMed Pharmaceuticals INM, a leader in the manufacturing and clinical development of rare cannabinoids, held its general meeting on Dec. 17, 2021, and approved the election of all director nominees. Those elected will hold office until the next annual shareholder meeting or until their successors are elected or appointed.

The company also noted that all of the matters outlined for consideration and approval in InMed’s notice of meeting and management information circular were approved. In addition, the company announced that an article discussing cannabinol (“CBN”) as a potential treatment option for glaucoma has been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

The article, titled “Cannabinol Modulates Neuroprotection and Intraocular Pressure: A Potential Multi-Target Therapeutic Intervention for Glaucoma,” was published in the “Biochimica et Biophysical Acta” journal. The article concludes that, first, CBN may promote neuroprotection of cells in the retina that are responsible for vision, and second, the substance may normalize intraocular pressure by attenuating changes in the extracellular matrix proteins. “Having this research peer-reviewed and published in such a reputable journal is a significant milestone for InMed’s glaucoma development program,” said InMed scientific advisor Dr. Mauro Maccarrone in the press release. “This provides important external validation for the scientific community as the program advances towards human studies. We believe InMed’s INM-088 program has significant implications for neuroprotection within the glaucoma space and may lead to a potential new treatment for millions of people suffering from this condition worldwide.”
