MIRA Reveals Innovative Phase I/IIa Protocol Design and Selection of Clinical Trial Site

 

MIRA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”, “MIRA”), a preclinical-stage pharmaceutical company, is pleased to announce the selection of The Centre for Human Drug Research (CHDR) in Leiden, The Netherlands, as the site for its Phase I/IIa clinical trial of Ketamir-2, a novel oral ketamine analog. Recruitment for the trial is set to begin in Q1 2025, with initial safety and efficacy results from the Phase I study in healthy subjects expected in the second half of 2025. The Phase IIa study, planned to start in Q4 2025, will focus on diabetic neuropathy patients, with initial human efficacy results anticipated in the first half of 2026.

 

The trial leverages CHDR’s proprietary PainCart® technology, a validated tool for measuring pain response. This advanced technology allows MIRA to assess early signs of efficacy in healthy subjects during Phase I, a capability that is typically unavailable at this stage of development. Psychoactivity assessments will also be conducted separately as part of an independent evaluation. The unique capabilities of PainCart® was a key reason for selecting CHDR as the trial site, allowing MIRA to gain valuable insights into Ketamir-2’s potential for pain management earlier in the clinical process together with information about safety and pharmacokinetics.
