Tryp Therapeutics Announces Collaboration With Researchers At The University Of Wisconsin-Madison

Tryp has partnered with Paul Hutson, PharmD and Christopher Nicholas, PhD to advance the Company’s proprietary, psilocybin-based drug product

San Diego, California–(Newsfile Corp. – October 7, 2021) – Tryp Therapeutics (CSE: TRYP) (OTCQB: TRYPF) (“Tryp” or the “Company“), a pharmaceutical company focused on developing psilocybin-based compounds for diseases with unmet medical needs, announced today a collaboration with Paul Hutson, PharmD and Christopher Nicholas, PhD to support clinical pharmacology studies for the Company’s proprietary drug product, TRP-8803.

Dr. Hutson and Dr. Nicholas will serve as Investigators on a clinical pharmacology study to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of TRP-8803 in healthy, volunteer patients. The completion of the studies will provide further regulatory support for TRP-8803 as well as insight into the pharmacokinetic profile of TRP-8803. TRP-8803 is expected to be used in Tryp’s Phase 2b studies and eventual commercialization as the Company develops the product for chronic pain indications such as fibromyalgia and phantom limb pain, among other diseases.

Dr. Hutson is Professor of the Pharmacy Practice Division at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Pharmacy and brings years of experience assessing the therapeutic uses of psilocybin and other psychoactive medications to the partnership. Dr. Hutson has been prolific in evaluating blood exposure levels of psilocybin-based products in patients and the impact on patients as the Principal Investigator for a safety and dose escalation clinical trial for psilocybin performed at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dr. Hutson also serves as Director of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Transdisciplinary Center for Research in Psychoactive Substances in the University of Wisconsin School of Pharmacy.

Commenting on the collaboration, Dr. Hutson said, “I am excited to work with Tryp to assess the unique features of their proprietary drug product, TRP-8803. Psilocybin-based treatments have incredible clinical potential. Our collaboration will explore important safety and dosing considerations with the potential to create a best-in-class psychedelic therapy with significant benefits to patients across a wide range of indications.”

Trained as a clinical psychologist and neuroscientist, Dr. Nicholas is Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health where he serves as the Principal Investigator on a number of psilocybin clinical trials and mechanistic studies. With expertise in psychedelic-assisted therapy, he will provide guidance on study design, behavioral and biological outcome measures, and psychological support to ensure participants will successfully complete the pharmacology study. “I’m hopeful that TRP-8803 will not only be an effective treatment modality, but one that also improves access to care and scalability.”

“We are fortunate to benefit from Dr. Hutson’s and Dr. Nicholas’s tremendous expertise in psilocybin-based treatments and their effects on patients,” said Jim Gilligan, PhD, President and Chief Scientific Officer of Tryp Therapeutics. “TRP-8803 has the potential to set the standard in safety, control, and patient comfort for psilocybin-based therapies. We look forward to working with Dr. Hutson and Dr. Nicholas on this exciting endeavor.”

MYND Life Sciences Announces Diagnostic Division with Formation of Wholly-Owned Subsidiary – MYND Diagnostics Ltd.

MYND Life Sciences Announces Diagnostic Division with Formation of Wholly-Owned Subsidiary – MYND Diagnostics Ltd.

MYND Diagnostics was formed to commercialize proprietary biomarker diagnostic tests for patients suffering from MDD, TRD and other psychiatric disorders.

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 7, 2021 /CNW/ – MYND Life Sciences Inc. (CSE: MYND) (OTC: MYNDF) (“MYND” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce the formation of its diagnostic biomarker division with the incorporation of a wholly-owned subsidiary, MYND Diagnostics Ltd. (“MYND Diagnostics” or the “Subsidiary”).

MYND Diagnostics’ robust investigational pipeline of diagnostics, novel small molecules, and biologics is focused on improving disease outcomes, monitoring and improving the treatment experience for patients suffering from Major Depressive Disorder (“MDD”), Treatment Resistant Depression (“TRD”) and other inflammatory afflictions of the Central Nervous System.  The Subsidiary’s innovation, enabled by proprietary technology, allows for the quantitative and qualitative measurement of the MYND Anti-inflammatory Peptide (“MAP”) biomarker. The subsidiary forecasts revenue by Q2 of 2022.

“We are focused on supporting our drug development pipeline with the formation of MYND Diagnostics Ltd., our diagnostic biomarker division which will generate near term revenue through the commercialization of our MAP biomarker,” stated Dr. Lyle Oberg MD, MYND.  Life Sciences CEO. “For decades, the diagnosis of psychiatric illness relied almost exclusively on self-reporting and physician observation of symptoms to make a diagnosis. The MAP Biomarker will give healthcare providers an objective monitoring tool that will detect and diagnose mental illness earlier, thereby enabling quicker, more targeted treatments. We will deliver an accurate indicator of depression, therefore allowing for better monitoring of improving or relapsing disease.”

MYND Diagnostics Clinical Trials

The Subsidiary’s focus will be to conduct clinical trials to identify a marker for quantitatively diagnosing and monitoring depression in response to treatment. MYND’s Chief Clinical Officer, Iryna Saranchova, MD, Ph.D. will oversee the Subsidiary’s diagnostic trials.

MYND Diagnostics Biomarker Tests

The target market for MYND Diagnostics’ proprietary tests includes hospitals, clinics, healthcare facilities and other corporate and pharmaceutical companies, during clinical trials, and once efficacy and safety is demonstrated on humans, direct to consumer and physician.

The Global Biomarkers Market

According to Reports and Data, the global biomarkers market is forecasted to grow at a rate of 13.6%, from USD 41.47 billion in 2019 to USD 115.45 billion in 2027.  The biomarker market is experiencing rapid growth attributed to its increasing application in drug discovery and development, diagnostic, risk assessment of target conditions, and benefits in personalized medication. MYND Diagnostics’ competitive advantage is that its process is cost-effective, time-efficient and can produce test results directly from a dried blood sample rather than the often cumbersome logistics of using vials of whole blood.

Lobe Announces Krysalis VX Innovations Inc., a Company Equally Owned by Lobe Sciences Ltd. and Virtual Psychedelics Incorporated, Appointment of Interdisciplinary Team of Advisors

Six Thought Leaders Across Arts, Technology, Academic and Industry Sectors to Advise on the Krysalistm Pod Immersive Treatment Experience

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 6, 2021) – Lobe Sciences Ltd. (CSE: LOBE) (OTC Pink: GTSIF) (“Lobe” or the “Company“) today announced that Krysalis VX Innovations Inc. (“Krysalis”), the Virtual experience (“VX”)-focused company designing the delivery of immersive, headset-free experiences through the KrysalisTM Pod system that will offer treatment options for cognitive, psychological, motor and functional impairments across various clinical health conditions, has appointed a distinguished and future-facing advisory team composed of Alex McDowell, Jon 9, Austin Blaisdell, and the three minds behind sonic engineering company, Resonant Devices, Kent Noonan, Erik Larson and Casey Atteberry.

Krysalis was formed pursuant to a joint venture agreement between Lobe and Virtual Psychedelics Incorporated (“VPI”) announced on April 27, 2021, where Krysalis is owned 50% by Lobe and 50% by VPI.

This advisory group will assist Krysalis through its first iteration of the KrysalisTM Pod. The current leadership team of Krysalis, CEO and social network-transmedia pioneer, Josh Shore; Hollywood director, futurist, and KrysalisTM Pod project lead, Brett Leonard; Professor and Director of Medical Virtual Reality at USC’s Institute for Creative Technologies, Dr. Albert (Skip) Rizzo; and VIP Event Producer, William (Billy) Alfonso (Formula-1, Cirque du Soleil) – are thrilled that the KrysalisTM Pod development will now benefit from representation and expertise of the advisory team that spans across arts, technology, design, academic and industry sectors.

“As a cinematic storyteller, having told cautionary tales of the transformative power of Virtual Reality in my movies, to now be involved in the actual reality of using this technology thanks to our groundbreaking partnership with Lobe Sciences and the incredible advisory group being announced here, is the realization of my greatest hopes for Virtual eXperience (VX) to be a positive force for healing the human spirit,” said Brett Leonard. “The best part is, with the development of the KrysalisTM Pod, no one in these therapeutic environments will have to strap an uncomfortable device on their head.”

Krysalis is committed to further developing systems that deliver virtual experience in tandem with psychedelics for research and clinical therapy, developing VR systems without psychedelics for recreational purposes such as gaming, and is focused on the development of the KrysalisTM Pod. The KrysalisTM Pod is new technology that will harness biometric feedback to make visible the tangible combined effects of virtual reality (“VR”) and psychedelics on biometric activity in real time.

PharmaTher Initiates Phase 2 Clinical Trial of Ketamine for the Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease

PharmaTher Initiates Phase 2 Clinical Trial of Ketamine for the Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease

“KET-LID” trial to evaluate ketamine’s safety and efficacy in the treatment of levodopa-induced dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson’s disease

TORONTO, October 6, 2021 — PharmaTher Holdings Ltd. (the “Company” or “PharmaTher”) (OTCQB: PHRRF) (CSE: PHRM), a clinical-stage psychedelics biotech company, announced today that it has initiated its Phase 2 KET-LID clinical trial of Ketamine for the treatment of Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia in Subjects with Parkinson’s Disease. Patient screening and enrollment is expected to begin in October 2021 with data anticipated in late-Q4 2021.The Phase 2 KET-LID clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, active placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of ketamine in the treatment of levodopa-induced dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson’s disease.  The primary and secondary endpoints are the changes in the following: i) total score of the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS), ii) total objective score (III, IV) of the UDysRS, iii) total daily OFF times as assessed by subject- completed 24-hour diaries, and iv) Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) total score of part III (motor) and sum score of Questions 4.1 and 4.2 (dyskinesia) in part IV.

As previously announced, an IND for the trial has been approved by the FDA.  The Company has completed its clinical trial start-up activities and selection of essential vendors including  project management, central laboratory, clinical supply kits and logistics, data management and biostatistics, and clinical site management and monitoring.  Clinical trial drug product (ketamine) and active placebo (midazolam) have also been obtained.  

For further detail about the KET-LID trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04912115), titled “A Multi-Center, Phase II, Randomized, Double-Blind, Prospective, Active Placebo-Controlled Trial of Sub-Anesthetic Intravenous Infusion of Ketamine to Treat Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia in Subjects with Parkinson’s Disease,” please visit https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04912115?term=PharmaTher&draw=2&rank=1.

If the Phase 2 clinical study is positive, the Company will request a meeting with the FDA to discuss its plan and obtain an agreement to move to a Phase 3 clinical study under the 505(b)2 regulatory pathway in the first half of 2022.  

“Initiation of the Phase 2 clinical trial of ketamine to treat Parkinson’s disease, or the KET-LID trial, is a significant milestone for PharmaTher and we are excited about the opportunity to advance a potential new therapeutic solution for Parkinson’s disease patients,” said Fabio Chianelli, CEO of PharmaTher.  
There can be no assurance that the FDA will support any potential request for an expedited path to approval or further development for ketamine in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

Ketamine’s Potential In Parkinson’s Disease       

Ketamine is an FDA-approved N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-modulating drug that is widely used as an anesthetic agent either alone or in combination with other anesthetic agents [Smith et al, 1987; Pacheco et al, 2014]. The possible therapeutic effect of low-dose ketamine on levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) was noted in a retrospective analysis of Parkinson’s disease patients who received ketamine for pain relief. During this analysis, it was observed that the patients experienced an improvement in LID lasting several weeks beyond treatment [Sherman et al, 2016]. These results were corroborated in a test of low-dose ketamine in a rodent LID model, and this possible effect has also been examined in a controlled study [Bartlett et al, 2016]. Ketamine may also have additional benefits in the treatment of pain [Niesters et al, 2014] and depression [Diamond et al, 2014; Murrough et al, 2013], which are frequent comorbidities of Parkinson’s disease.

Parkinson’s disease is a debilitating disorder that affects over 1 million people in the U.S. and more than 7 million people worldwide. There is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease, although some drug combinations are used to treat the disease symptoms. The global Parkinson’s disease market is expected to grow from USD $5 billion in 2019 to USD $7.5 billion by the end of 2025 [360iResearch 2020] and it is estimated that the potential market opportunity for LID Parkinson’s disease to be over USD $3 billion in the U.S. alone.

About Parkinson’s Disease

There is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease. Although the etiology of Parkinson’s disease is not fully understood, it is thought to result from loss of pigmented dopaminergic neurons in the Substantia nigra and their striatal projections, leading to dopamine deficiency in the striatum [Schapira and Jenner, 2011]. This ultimately affects the cortico-striatal system that controls movement. As a progressive neurogenerative disorder of the central nervous system that primarily affects the motor nerve system, symptoms of Parkinson’s disease may emerge slowly and include tremors, rigidity, bradykinesia, and postural instability [Paulson and Stern, 2004]. Also, patients may experience non-motor symptoms such as autonomic dysfunction (orthostatic hypotension, constipation, bladder dysfunction), psychiatric (depression), cognitive and sensory symptoms (pain) [Olanow, et al, 2009]. These non-motor symptoms become more common as the disease progresses. Treatments, including levodopa and dopamine agonists, which restore the dopamine deficits in the brain, have been employed for almost 50 years. However, with continued treatment using levodopa, dose-limiting motor side-effects often emerge. This includes the emergence of abnormal involuntary movements termed Levodopa Induced Dyskinesias, which can be identified in about 50% of patients within five years after initiation of levodopa treatment and in almost all patients within ten years post-treatment initiation. These side effects often limit further dose increases in dopaminergic therapy.

MindMed Announces Strategic Research Collaboration with Sphere Health

MindMed Announces Strategic Research Collaboration with Sphere Health

Mind Medicine (MindMed) Inc. (NASDAQ: MNMD), (NEO: MMED), (DE: MMQ) (the “Company”), a leading biotech company developing psychedelic-inspired therapies, has agreed to partner with Sphere Health – a physician-founded employee benefits provider targeting treatments for people with severe mental illness – to collect and analyze multimodal data in order to improve the understanding of a variety of biomarkers associated with mental illnesses including anxiety and affective disorders.

MindMed and Sphere Health are jointly launching MM061302, a study using existing consumer technology to provide a robust data set, which may be used to develop more accurate machine learning tools in order to identify biomarkers that show association with and prediction of symptoms of anxiety and depression.

The study data can be used to better understand mental health conditions, and may help inform the design of future digital tools to support both individuals with mood disorders as well as the clinicians caring for them

Through the partnership with MindMed’s collaborator Datavant, study data can also be de-identified and linked at the subject-level to other data sets, maintaining patient privacy while offering further insights based on real-world data.

“We are thrilled to have Sphere Health as a partner in this endeavor. As the ways in which individuals use technology to access care continues to evolve, so can our understanding of mental illness and mental health. The use of technology has the potential to offer a level of sensitivity and precision which does not currently exist in our models of these disorders and, we hope, will ultimately lead to better outcomes in our ability to help the folks who suffer from them” said Daniel R. Karlin, MD MA, Chief Medical Officer of MindMed.

“For therapy to advance, we need more research. At the same time, we need to make sure that respecting patient privacy and safeguarding their deepest, most personal moments, remains a hallmark of both clinical care and the ethical conduct of research,” added Owen Muir, MD, Sphere Health CEO and Principal Investigator of the study.

About MindMed

MindMed is a clinical-stage psychedelic medicine biotech company that seeks to discover, develop and deploy psychedelic-inspired medicines and therapies to address addiction and mental illness. The Company is assembling a compelling drug development pipeline of innovative treatments based on psychedelic substances including psilocybin, LSD, MDMA, DMT and an Ibogaine derivative, 18-MC. The MindMed executive team brings extensive biopharmaceutical experience to MindMed’s approach to developing the next generation of psychedelic-inspired medicines and therapies.

MindMed trades on the NASDAQ under the symbol MNMD and on the Canadian NEO Exchange under the symbol MMED. MindMed is also traded in Germany under the symbol MMQ.

“By rebranding Maka, which means earth, we are staying aligned to the vision of responsible use. We are providing Maka costumers with free access to expert knowledge while building a community around growth and connection. We believe we need more connection on and to Earth, and we are proud of this initiative,” said Todd Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company. “The new Maka product offerings, produced by the Red Light Holland Truffle Farm which will be distributed by our wholly owned subsidiary plus our e-commerce websites show true vertical integration and hence, create increased profit margins. We believe the Smart Shops will love this rebrand, of an already familiar product, so we are excited to get them on shelves too!”

“The use of psychedelics can be a powerful, life-changing experience. Preparation, a safe set and setting, a healthy mindset and understanding how to integrate the experience are all an integral part of the psychedelic journey and we at Maka are here to support those who go on this journey,” said Jeff Hamburg, Red Light Holland therapist and psychedelic journey expert.

Maka Magic Truffles powered by Red Light Holland will be made available at www.WorldOfMaka.com, for sale only in the Netherlands to adults 18+ by mid-November 2021.
