Glycotex obtains active IND for wound healing drug

The Phase IIa human clinical trial to be conducted in the US is designed to investigate the safety and clinical outcomes of topically applied GLYC-101 compared to placebo in subjects undergoing carbon dioxide laser skin resurfacing.

GLYC-101 has already completed a Phase II human clinical trial in Australia for the treatment of chronic venous skin ulcers. Glycotex intends to develop GLYC-101 for a wide range of human wound healing and tissue repair applications including burn wounds, post surgical wounds, diabetic ulcers and chronic venous ulcers.
