Mannin’s researchers have received the first of several drug candidates for testing. Once finalized, the lead candidates will be formulated for clinical testing in a topical application in the form of an easy to administer eye drop. This is a key differentiator for Mannin and aims to solve the compliance problems and invasive procedures currently available to patients suffering from glaucoma.

In October 2015 Q BioMed Inc. entered into an agreement with Mannin Research to exclusively license, with an option to acquire, the platform technology assets of Mannin Research, the developer of a new class of vascular therapeutics including the technology discussed here.
