Prior to this, INMED PHARMACEUTIC COM NPV CEO Adams talked about the cannabis plant’s enormous potential for new therapies in the pharmaceutical industry during his interview with BNN, highlighting the company’s R&D pipeline targeting serious medical conditions like Epidermolysis Bullosa and glaucoma. The company also recently announced that it was progressing on the R&D program for cannabinoids use in treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD.
Chief Scientific Officer of the company, Dr. Sazzad Hossain, said that the preliminary data holds significance because of the role of cannabinoid-based therapies in treating COPD. He explained that cannabinoids were capable of releasing anti-inflammatory properties along with bronchodilatory and immunosuppressive characteristics, making cannabinoid-based therapies effective and safer for treatment of COPD. From this, INMED PHARMACEUTIC COM NPV will move on to validate its proprietary bioinformatics analysis tool to identify drug-disease targets and use them in the pre-clinical models for treatment.
