MissionIRNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ: LEXX) Hires CRO for Second DehydraTECH-Powered GLP-1 Human Pilot Study

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, today announced it has hired a contract research organization (“CRO”) to perform the company’s second DehydraTECH-powered glucagon-like peptide 1 (“GLP-1”) human pilot study #2. According to the announcement, the study will be a randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled investigation that will compare three formulations, each at a 7 mg semaglutide dose: a positive control Rybelsus(R) swallowed tablet; DehydraTECH-semaglutide swallowed capsules; and, for the first time ever, an in-mouth dissolvable DehydraTECH-semaglutide oral tablet. “DehydraTECH has previously shown an ability to improve delivery of certain drugs destined for the bloodstream, through the buccal/sublingual tissues of the mouth and throat,” said Chris Bunka, CEO of Lexaria. “If this new study is successful in demonstrating efficacy and safety, the potential for a new era in GLP-1 delivery without the need for painful injections or stomach-upsetting tablets could be within reach.”
