OCT\u2019s exclusive license includes Canopy\u2019s entire cannabinoid derivative library, including 335 derivatives, intellectual property rights including 14 patent families, and associated product research and development.<\/p>\n<p>Dalriada contributed to the design, manufacturing, and experimental evaluation of all the compounds in the Canopy library. Dalriada will build on its existing knowledge and experience as it continues research aimed at identifying multiple drug candidates targeting indications in pain, neurology, inflammation and oncology. A goal of the collaboration is the selection of two drug candidates ready for pre-clinical development by the end of 2022.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OCTP Chief Executive, Dr John Lucas, on the Dalriada Agreement<\/strong> <em>\u201cWhilst our main focus remains pain therapy, the collaboration with Dalriada, in synergy with the strategic collaborations recently announced, will enable us to expand and differentiate our efforts into other therapeutic areas including neurology, oncology and inflammation. Working with the team that helped Canopy to develop its library is hugely exciting for OCT and will help us get the very best out of that important acquisition.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dalriada Chief Executive and co-founder, Diana Kraskouskaya said of the partnership with Oxford<\/strong> <em>\u201cDalriada looks forward to supporting OCT advance the cannabinoid derivative library we helped discover. Targeting the endogenous cannabinoid system with small molecules holds significant promise in delivering improved therapies and over the years, we have significantly invested in building our expertise and infrastructure in this pharmacology as well as our work with controlled substances.
