Melbourne-based EpiTan (ASX:EPT) has resumed its trial of the sustained release implant for tanning drug Melanotan.

The trial is being conducted at Queensland's Clive Berghofer Cancer Research Centre with a new significantly smaller solid injectable. It will be used to determine the optimal dose for the final commercial formulation of Melanotan.

Epitan executive chairman Dr Wayne Millen said the new implant was able to be injected with a 16 gauge needle.
