Phase IIb medical
"NeuroThera’s Phase IIb clinical trial site at the Yale Child Study Center"
Phase IIb is a mid-stage clinical trial that tests whether an experimental treatment works and what dose is best by studying it in a larger group of patients than early tests. For investors, Phase IIb results are important because they substantially reduce uncertainty about a drug’s effectiveness and safety, and positive or negative outcomes often drive company valuation, partnership interest, and the likelihood of advancing to the large, costly Phase III trials.
randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial medical
"the Phase IIb study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial"
Yale Global Tic Severity Scale medical
"measured by the gold standard, Yale Global Tic Severity Scale Total Tic Score"
A clinician-rated questionnaire that measures the severity and impact of motor and vocal tics, including number, frequency, intensity, complexity and overall impairment. Think of it like a standardized report card for tics used in clinical care and drug trials; it matters to investors because scores are commonly used as an objective endpoint in research and regulatory filings, which can influence trial outcomes, approval prospects and commercial value of treatments.
Tourette Syndrome medical
"drug candidate for the treatment of Tourette Syndrome in adults"
Tourette syndrome is a neurological condition that causes repeated, involuntary movements or sounds known as tics, which typically begin in childhood and vary widely in severity. Investors pay attention because it creates a defined need for medical treatments, therapies, and support services—similar to how recurring software bugs create demand for updates—affecting market size, regulatory scrutiny, clinical trial opportunities and potential workforce or cost implications for healthcare and education sectors.
endocannabinoid-like medical
"dronabinol with the endocannabinoid-like palmitoylethanolamide in a single dosage form"

SciSparc: Subsidiary NeuroThera Labs Launches Phase IIb Clinical Trial at Yale Child Study Center for First-of-its-kind Treatment for Tourette Syndrome

 

TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  SciSparc Ltd. (Nasdaq: SPRC) (“Company” or ”SciSparc”), today announced that NeuroThera Labs Inc. (TSXV: NTLX) (“NeuroThera”), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on developing novel treatments for central nervous system disorders, today announced the initiation of NeuroThera’s Phase IIb clinical trial site at the Yale Child Study Center, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA. The study, led by Dr. Michael H. Bloch, will evaluate SCI-110, NeuroThera’s proprietary cannabinoid-based drug candidate for the treatment of Tourette Syndrome (“TS”) in adults.

 

The trial is now progressing at the Yale Child Study Center, one of the study’s key clinical sites. SCI-110 combines dronabinol with the endocannabinoid-like palmitoylethanolamide in a single, innovative dosage form designed to reduce tics and associated comorbid symptoms in adults with TS while aiming to minimize side effects.

 

In addition to the Yale site, the Phase IIb trial is also underway at Hannover Medical School in Hanover, Germany, and Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center in Tel Aviv, Israel.

 

Dr. Adi Zuloff-Shani, Chief Technology Officer of NeuroThera, commented: “Launching a U.S. site at the Yale Child Study Center represents a significant milestone in our global development program for SCI-110. TS remains a major unmet medical need with limited therapeutic options, particularly in adults who continue to experience persistent, severe, and often debilitating symptoms. We believe SCI-110 has the potential to introduce a novel, more effective and safer treatment approach. We are deeply committed to advancing this promising therapy and generating meaningful clinical data to support NeuroThera’s future regulatory approval.”

 

Building on the positive safety and efficacy results from the Phase IIa study, which showed an average tic reduction of 21% across the entire participants sample, as measured by the gold standard, Yale Global Tic Severity Scale Total Tic Score, the Phase IIb study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of daily oral SCI-110. Patients aged 18-65 will be randomized to receive either SCI-110 or placebo, with the primary efficacy endpoint being the change in tic severity measured by the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale at weeks 12 and 26 compared to the baseline. Safety will be assessed through monitoring of adverse events.
