IQAI’s Sponsored Phase I Clinical Trial is Open

MILWAUKEE, WI / ACCESSWIRE / March 10, 2022 / IQ-AI Limited (OTCQB:IQAIF) (LSE:IQAI) is pleased to announce that the sponsored Phase I clinical trial for oral gallium maltolate (GaM) is open for enrollment. The trial is being led by Dr. Jennifer Connelly, MD, Associate Professor of Neurology, and Dr. Christopher Chitambar, MD, Emeritus Professor of Medicine and Biophysics, Division of Hematology and Oncology, both at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW). Patient recruitment in the trial is underway and potential volunteers that meet the inclusion criteria have already been identified.

In April 2021, IQ-AI announced it would finance the Phase I study which is designed to determine the optimal dose of GaM that can be administered safely. It is the first-in-human clinical trial for an oral form of GaM to be used in patients to treat glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).

Motivation to fund this trial was provided in part by the results of a preclinical (animal) study led by Dr. Chitambar. In that study, treatment with oral GaM inhibited tumor growth and resulted in a significant increase in overall survival.

In September, the Company announced that a new encapsulation supplier was necessary to meet the demands of the trial and went through the efforts to secure and qualify a new supplier.

While the qualification of a new supplier imposed a delay to the start of the trial, a robust source of supply is now ready to provide an efficient and continuous distribution of capsules to enrolled patients for this Phase I as well as subsequent trials.

“I applaud the efforts of everyone involved in qualifying a new encapsulation supplier and preparing the necessary documentation to the FDA, and that the start of this much anticipated trial is now finally underway,” said Trevor Brown, CEO of IQ-AI.
