Vancouver, Canada, March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearmind Medicine Inc. (Nasdaq: CMND) (“Clearmind” or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotech company focused on the discovery and development of novel, non-hallucinogenic, second generation, neuroplastogen-derived therapeutics to solve major under-treated health problems, today announced the successful continuation of treatment of participants in the third cohort of its ongoing FDA-approved Phase I/IIa clinical trial evaluating CMND-100, the Company’s proprietary non-hallucinogenic MEAI-based oral drug candidate, for the treatment of Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).
This positive progress follows the Company’s recent announcement on March 11, 2026, regarding the advancement of participant enrollment for the third cohort at Yale University, Johns Hopkins University, and Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center. Patients at the prestigious U.S. institutions – Yale University and Johns Hopkins University – continue to progress successfully through their treatment protocol, demonstrating continued safety and tolerability with no serious adverse events reported to date.
The Phase I/IIa clinical trial is a multinational, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of CMND-100 in patients with moderate to severe AUD. The successful ongoing treatment at these leading U.S. medical centers reflects strong momentum and confidence in CMND-100 as a potential breakthrough therapy for AUD.
“Building on the encouraging recruitment momentum and positive topline results from prior cohorts, we are pleased with the successful continuation of treatment in our U.S. clinical sites,” said Dr. Adi Zuloff-Shani, Chief Executive Officer of Clearmind Medicine.
