NPAU), an emerging biotech company focused on the development and commercialization of cutting-edge treatments in mental disorders and viral infections, announces it has entered into an agreement with Eurofins Discovery for TD-0148A’s U.S. FDA Investigational New Drug (“IND”)-enabling pharmacology studies. TD-0148A is a second-generation Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (“LSD”) derivative molecule that BetterLife believes will mimic the projected therapeutic potential of LSD without causing the undesirable psychoactive dissociative side effects, such as hallucinations.
"Following our recent acquisition of the assets of Transcend Biodynamics, we are excited to be initiating the IND-enabling studies for TD-0148A. We look forward to working with Eurofins Discovery to bring this treatment to patients as quickly as possible as we prepare for our IND and trials," said BetterLife's Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Ahmad Doroudian.
