MindBio reports sustained antidepressant response with microdosed psychedelic
Canada-headquartered psychedelic medicine company MindBio Therapeutics (CSE: MBIO) yesterday reported durability data from Phase IIa clinical trials in depressed patients testing MB22001, MindBio's proprietary self-administered take home microdose of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD).
The company said it is pleased to report a significant and sustained antidepressant response in patient follow up three months post treatment. However, investors were not impressed, sending MindBio’s shares down 14.3% to C$0.03.
The Phase IIa clinical trial demonstrated excellent safety, adherence and tolerance profile in doses tested. This was consistent with the Phase I study results and the findings augment the mounting evidence that MB22001 is a safe and effective drug for treating depression with a psychedelic medicine to patients out in the community. The scientific manuscript has recently been submitted to the prestigious British Journal of Psychiatry for peer review and publishing.
