Insys Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: INSY) is currently undergoing Phase-2 clinical trials of the treatment for refractory infantile spasms by consuming cannabidiol oral solution. Infantile Spasms is a diagnosis described as a rare and terrible form of epilepsy that usually attacks children in the first year of life. According to the study, this is a multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cannabidiol Oral Solution (COS) in the treatment of children aged 6 months through 36 months with a diagnosis of infantile spasms who have not responded to first line therapies. The dose of Cannabidiol Oral Solution will begin at 20 mg/kg daily [10 mg/kg twice per day (BID)], will be adjusted at any time if the investigator feels the safety or well-being of the participant is at risk, and will be titrated up or down according to protocol-stipulated parameters and at the investigator's discretion after Day 14 to enhance efficacy. Dose will not exceed 40 mg/kg daily.
