SARASOTA, FL, Nov. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Silo Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: SILO) (“Silo” or “the Company), a diversified developmental-stage biopharmaceutical and cryptocurrency treasury company, today announced that it has selected Allucent, a global full-service clinical research organization (CRO), to support the Company’s final preparations and planned submission of its investigational new drug application (IND) to the FDA for a Phase 1 clinical trial of its intranasal prophylactic SPC-15 as a treatment for PTSD. The Company currently expects to submit the IND in 2026 and commence its first-in-human (FIH) SPC-15 trial subsequent to FDA approval.
“We believe that a partnership with Allucent, is a significant move forward in bringing our novel PTSD therapeutic to the clinic,” said Silo CEO Eric Weisblum. “With Allucent’s expertise, we believe our IND will provide a sound rationale for clinical development, beginning with protocols for dose-ranging studies to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety profile for SPC-15. We expect to receive positive preclinical results in these categories which should meet the FDA’s clinical trial standards.”
Data from an IND-enabling GLP (Good Laboratory Practice)-compliant toxicology and toxicokinetic study, along with findings from a drug-device study of the formulation-specific intranasal spray system used for SPC-15 drug delivery, are expected in early 2026. Silo intends to pursue the FDA’s 505(b)(2) accelerated regulatory pathway for clinical development of SPC-15.
