INNOCAN PHARMA SUBMITS INVESTIGATIONAL NEW ANIMAL DRUG APPLICATION TO FDA'S VETERINARY CENTER
The Food and Drug Administration's Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) has granted Innocan Pharma Corp. a sponsor fee waiver and assigned an investigational new animal drug (INAD) number for its LPT-CBD (liposome platform technology-cannabidiol) product. This represents a significant step for the company, as an INAD designation facilitates correspondence and data exchange with CVM to support LPT-CBD development as a new veterinary drug.
The company further announced that following the assessment of LPT-CBD's scientific package, the CVM recognized Innocan's contribution to pursuing innovative animal drug products and technology and granted the company a sponsor fee waiver for fiscal year 2024.
Innocan's LPT-CBD is a proprietary drug delivery platform designed to provide prolonged-release CBD for chronic pain and well-being management in animals. Over the past year, repeated administration of LPT-CBD in dogs and other animals has demonstrated both efficacy and tolerability, providing sufficient evidence for the INAD application.
"We are thrilled by CVM's response," said Prof. Chezy Barenholz, chief scientific officer of Innocan Pharma. "The granted INAD will allow us to advance the investigational studies of LPT-CBD and share knowledge to support future discussions with CVM on LPT-CBD's development plan. Moreover, the fee waiver, granted by CVM, supports our development and pursuit of innovative animal drug products and technology, further validating our approach and potential impact in veterinary medicine."
Dr. Eyal Kalo, research and development director at Innocan, added: "LPT-CBD is a unique technology that has proven itself worthy of the INAD fee waiver granted by CVM. This will streamline our efforts to deliver a unique solution for chronic pain management to the animal market."
