About the phase 3 COMP005 trial
To date, the COMP005 trial is the largest, multi-center study of an investigational, synthesized psilocybin to complete recruitment and will be the first pivotal program to report the efficacy of synthesized psilocybin for the treatment of TRD. In this randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study, 258 participants with moderate-to-severe depression that have not responded to at least two or more prior treatments were dosed across 32 sites in
The trial is comprised of three parts: Part A, which is blinded through 6 weeks, Part B, which remains blinded through week 26, and Part C, which is open-label from week 26 to week 52.
COMP360 is a synthesized, proprietary formulation of psilocybin under investigation as a treatment for certain difficult-to-treat mental health conditions.
About treatment resistant depression (TRD)
Depression is one of the most common mental health disorders and the largest contributor to disability globally according to the
Approximately one-third of patients with MDD aren’t helped by existing therapies and are at high risk of developing treatment-resistant depression. TRD is generally defined as an inadequate response to two or more appropriate courses of approved medications. TRD has a significantly greater impact on individuals compared to MDD, leading to residual symptoms, poorer quality of life, increased comorbidities, higher mortality, and an increased risk of suicide.
