On the 4th January 2023 #OCTP submitted a combined clinical trials application for the lead programme, OCT461201, to the UK Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and Wales Research Ethics Committee. 

This follows the successful completion of OCTP's extensive pre-clinical work on OCT461201, under the Group's £2.6 million contract research agreement with Aptuit (Verona) SRL.

This Phase I first-in-human clinical trial, due to commence in Q1 2023, which is being funded entirely from OCTP's existing resources, will be conducted in the UK in healthy volunteers, with a single ascending dose. The trial aims to demonstrate safety and tolerability, whilst also providing pivotal information on its pharmacokinetic profile, to confirm its value as a potential drug. The clinical trial is anticipated to complete within Q2 2023.
