GW  Pharmaceuticals  plc  Analyst  Notes

On March 17, 2014, GW Pharmaceuticals plc (GW Pharmaceuticals) announced updates on the Company's cannabinoid pipeline. The Company has completed a Phase 1 clinical trial of GWP42006 to treat epilepsy. GWP42006 is a product which features the non-psychoactive cannabinoid cannabidivarin (CBDV) extracted from the cannabis plant. CBDV has shown the ability to treat seizures in pre-clinical models of epilepsy with significantly fewer side effects than currently approved anti-epileptic drugs. The Company also commenced a 12-week randomized, double blind, placebo controlled Phase 2b study of GWP42004 to treat Type 2 diabetes. GW believes that GWP42004 would have the potential to offer a novel orally-administered treatment option within one of the largest therapeutic areas where a serious unmet medical need still exists. GW has also commenced a Phase 2a trial using GWP42003 to treat Schizophrenia. GWP42003 has shown notable anti-psychotic effects in accepted pre-clinical models of schizophrenia and has also demonstrated the ability to reduce the characteristic movement disorders induced by currently available anti-psychotic agents.
