MIRA Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: MIRA) is in advanced talks with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) to evaluate MIRA's novel oral ketamine analog, Ketamir-2, for cancer-related pain and depression. This collaboration could validate Ketamir-2's potential and expand its application beyond depression and PTSD. MSK currently treats refractory cancer pain with intravenous ketamine, but Ketamir-2 may offer a more convenient oral alternative with higher bioavailability and a better safety profile. The study will compare Ketamir-2's efficacy to traditional ketamine in rodent models. MIRA also collaborates with Pharmaseed to explore Ketamir-2's effects on neuropathic pain. Successful preclinical results could accelerate FDA approval and create non-dilutive funding opportunities. Cancer pain affects 44% of patients, with 31% experiencing moderate to severe pain, and 25% suffering from depression.
Mira Pharmaceuticals has announced significant advancements in preclinical trials for Ketamir-2, an oral ketamine analog aimed at treating PTSD, depression, and neuropathic pain, including cancer pain. The company plans to submit an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA by year-end, aiming for human trials in 2025.
In collaboration with Pharmaseed, MIRA is testing Ketamir-2's efficacy in severe PTSD using rat models. Another study with Biotrial will evaluate the drug's locomotor effects in mice. MIRA has also initiated toxicological studies with Frontage Laboratories and improved the manufacturing process to reduce costs.
The potential market for Ketamir-2 is substantial, with PTSD affecting 8 million adults annually in the U.S. and the market for PTSD treatments projected to reach $26 billion by 2031.
