Our Story.

1st major round of investment to develop formulations
2014
2nd major round of investment to conduct Phase I Clinical trial
2022
Phase I successfully completed
2023

Neurocentrx was founded by Dr Carmel Reilly to focus on multiple product opportunities to treat pain and other neurological conditions.

We raised our first investment round in 2014 and patented our first oral ketamine formulations in 2018.

We have produced both ‘immediate release’ and ‘abuse deterrent’ oral ketamine formulations, and are preparing to conduct multiple trials across diverse indications in depressed patients. Our therapeutic ketamine is branded Keticap. We have recently successfully completed a Phase1 study of immediate release ketamine with our partners at King’s College London.

Following guidance from regulators, we are now poised to commence both Phase II and Phase /III studies, with an intention to gain market approval for Keticap for treatment of multiple clinical indications.

We are currently completing Phase1 development with our partners at King’s College London and about to move into Phase II/III studies.
