SciSparc has commenced the clinical trial of its new therapy, SCI-210, to treat ASD symptoms in children.
ASD differs widely among those it affects, presenting challenges in social interaction and communication.
The double-blind, randomised and placebo-controlled study has been initiated at the Soroka Medical Center in Israel.
SCI-210 is a combination of cannabidiol (CBD) and SciSparc’s Palmitoylethanolamide, designed to alleviate ASD symptoms.
SciSparc will enrol 60 subjects aged between five and 18 years over 20 weeks for scientifically measuring how the therapy compares to standard CBD treatment in managing symptoms of ASD.
SciSparc CEO Oz Adler said: “Our pioneering treatment aims to reduce and alleviate the symptoms of autism along with reducing the side effects that are common when taking cannabis-based treatments, such as CBD.
