LOS ANGELES, CA - July 15, 2026 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Quantum BioPharma (NASDAQ: QNTM) (CSE: QNTM) was featured in a recent article that discussed its advancement of its proprietary multiple sclerosis therapy candidate, LUCID-MS, which is designed to target demyelination and protection or restoration of myelin integrity. The company reported that Phase 1 clinical studies in healthy volunteers demonstrated a favorable safety profile and that the therapy was generally well tolerated, supporting advancement into patient-focused studies. In April 2026, Quantum BioPharma submitted an Investigational New Drug application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for LUCID-MS, paving the way for a planned Phase 2 clinical trial in people living with multiple sclerosis. The company believes the therapy may offer a differentiated, potentially first-in-class approach because it aims to directly address myelin loss and neurodegeneration, rather than relying solely on immune modulation, while also strengthening operational support for the program through a planned partnership with Allucent and engagement with neurological specialists.
