The company's primary focus is on developing therapy for acute cannabinoid intoxication (ACI).

"Anebulo continues to make progress towards our goal of becoming the first company to have an approved treatment for acute cannabinoid intoxication," said CEO Richie Cunningham. "Our current efforts are focused on the completion of critical steps needed to support the future Phase 3 studies of selonabant, including efficient scale-up of manufacturing, completion of remaining nonclinical activities, and finalizing the designs of our proposed registrational studies for further discussion with the FDA."

In August, the company received positive feedback from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following a type B meeting in July.

The FDA indicated that a single well-controlled study of ANEB-001 in acute cannabinoid intoxication (ACI) patients presenting to the emergency department combined with a larger THC challenge study in volunteers could potentially provide substantial evidence to support a new drug application.

Anebulo has also completed dosing in an open-label part C extension of its phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ANEB-001 at higher challenge doses of THC.
