Enveric Biosciences' CBD-Based Product Reduces Dermatitis Severity In Animal Study

Enveric Biosciences ENVB announced data from a preclinical rodent model evaluating EV102, the company's cannabidiol (CBD) based product in development for the topical treatment of radiodermatitis.
Radiodermatitis, the most common side effect of radiation therapy, is a physical skin irritation with symptoms ranging from red rash to open wounds. It affects nearly 95% of patients who receive radiation for cancer treatment.
EV102 was topically applied during a daily treatment regimen and resulted in a nearly 50% reduction in redness scoring severity.
Similar results were obtained for overall dermatitis severity, including desquamation (skin peeling) and ulceration as part of a composite score.
The company plans to start Phase 1 study in 2H of 2022.
