Meet the biopharma CEO who’s bullish on psychedelic-assisted therapies

Episode Description

Just over two years ago, the FDA issued its first draft guidance on clinical trials with psychedelic drugs. Now, HHS has hired a dedicated psychedelics advisor. 

This week, Reunion Neuroscience reported a mid-stage success with its short-acting psychedelic drug in postpartum depression.

At a moment of increasing momentum – both in terms of research, funding and commercial promise – behind psychedelics, it’s worth checking in with one of the leaders in the space: Cybin, a clinical-stage biopharma.

In November, Cybin reported positive Phase 2 data for its major depressive disorder drug and has its sights set on next steps in the regulatory approval process.

Pharma Editor Lecia Bushak brings us a conversation with Cybin CEO Doug Drysdale about "second-generation" psychedelics and how they are impacting the mental health treatment space.

For our Trends segment, we’re talking about recent updates to health data sharing on the federal level.
