InMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s (CSE: IN) (OTCQB: IMLFF) market traction is based on the company’s proprietary cannabinoid biosynthesis technology, one of three of its core assets and one which serves as the base for its development of its drug-development pipeline of novel therapeutics that leverage the pharmacological benefits of cannabinoids like CBD.  … The company is currently developing two products in its drug pipeline headed for clinical trials; INM-750, for the treatment of Epidermolysis Bullosa, and INM-085, for the treatment of Glaucoma. Additionally, the company continues to advance its INM-405 candidate for the treatment of chronic and severe pain.

InMed’s INM-750 for Epidermolysis Bullosa, an orphan disease characterized by extremely fragile skin, has potential global market revenues estimated at $1 billion per year. Another candidate in the pipeline, INM-085 for Glaucoma, has a global market potential in excess of $5 billion, and the company’s development of INM-405 targets the $36+ billion pain market.

In October, InMed provided an update on its pain program with additional pre-clinical results suggesting that peripheral application of certain CBD compounds, either alone or in combination, is effective in the treatment of craniofacial muscle pain disorders without any observed side effects to the central nervous system (http://nnw.fm/1Os9A). With increased pressure for the pharma industry to find non-addictive pain management alternatives with limited side effects, InMed continues to research the potential of non-THC cannabinoids to treat pain using a topical formulation.
