Relmada Therapeutics Reassesses Strategy Following Discontinuation of Two Phase 3 Trials for REL-1017
Discontinuation of Trials:
Relmada Therapeutics has discontinued two Phase 3 trials (RELIANCE I and III) for REL-1017, an adjunctive treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), after they failed to meet their primary endpoints13.
Ongoing Trials:
The company is continuing with the RELIANCE II and RELIGHT studies, with full enrollment in RELIANCE II expected by mid-2024 and completion of RELIGHT by the end of 20242.
Psilocybin Program:
Relmada is advancing a modified-release psilocybin program, with a Phase 1 trial planned for the first half of 2024 to evaluate its safety and tolerability in obese patients, followed by a Phase 2a trial to establish clinical proof-of-concept12.
Financial Position:
Relmada has sufficient funding to support its operations into 2025, ensuring the completion of ongoing trials and initiation of new studies2.
Strategic Focus:
The company is focusing on expanding treatment options for MDD, leveraging its REL-1017 and psilocybin programs to position itself as a significant player in the mental health treatment space2.
