Poolbeg doses first patient in its CRS prevention trial, but the real test is n=30
Poolbeg Pharma (AIM: POLB) said on 13 July that the first patient has been dosed in its POLB 001 TOPICAL trial, according to the company’s RNS statement, and that University College London Hospital has now also been activated as a clinical trial site, with additional sites expected to open imminently. Investor reaction will hinge less on the milestone itself — dosing a first patient is table stakes for any trial — and more on what happens over the next six to eight weeks, since interim data is still on track for late summer.
