The company's pipeline is centered around novel drug candidates designed to address various medical conditions by leveraging the endocannabinoid system's regulatory mechanisms.
Among Artelo's key product candidates is ART27.13, a synthetic G protein-coupled receptor agonist currently in Phase 1b/2a clinical trials. This compound is being investigated for its potential to treat anorexia associated with cancer, a serious condition that impacts patients' quality of life and treatment outcomes. Another notable candidate is ART12.11, a synthetic cannabidiol cocrystal, which is being developed for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This drug aims to harness the therapeutic properties of cannabidiol to manage these challenging conditions.
Additionally, Artelo is advancing ART26.12, a fatty acid binding protein 5 (FABP5) inhibitor. This candidate is being evaluated for its potential use in treating prostate and breast cancers, as well as PTSD. The company's research includes a collaboration with Trinity College Dublin to explore ART27.13’s efficacy in addressing cancer cachexia, a debilitating condition characterized by severe weight loss and muscle wasting associated with cancer.
