About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Multiple Dose Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, Tolerability, and Food Effect of MRX1 in Healthy Adults

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability and food effect of investigational drug MRX1 in healthy adults.

Read the detailed description

MRX1 is an oral solution containing cannabidiol.

The primary objective of this study is the assess the pharmacokinetic profile of MRX1 at two doses when administered twice daily in healthy adults. The secondary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability of MRX1 and to characterise the effect of a high fat, high calorie meal on the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of MRX1.

A total of 20 healthy volunteers (10 male and 10 female) will be sequentially enrolled into 2 treatment groups, with 5 males and 5 females in each group.

The duration of the study is up to 52 days per participant for Group A and 37 days per participant for Group B, including screening and follow up.

Group B High DoseExperimentalGroup B Period 1 (Fasted): Cannabidiol at 7.5 mg/kg of body weight, administered BID for 5 days, with a single dose administered on the morning of Day 6 (n=10). All doses will be administered in a fasted state.

    Measured: Days 1, 6 and 21

  5. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve 0-24 [AUC0-24]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cannabidiol in people with Pharmacokinetics, run by Tiamat Australia Pty Ltd at 1 site in Australia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Australia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum observed concentration [Cmax] (time frame: Days 1, 6 and 21). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Feb 2026.
