MORRISTOWN, N.J., April 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reunion Neuroscience Inc., a venture backed clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to pushing the boundaries of neuroscience, today announced that the clinical dataset from the Company’s Phase 1 study of its lead asset, RE104, will be presented in both a podium and poster at the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) Conference taking place April 11-14, 2024, in Boston, MA. The presentations will highlight the Phase 1 findings on RE104, a proprietary, potential best-in-class, patented prodrug of 4-OH-DiPT, a psilocybin-like compound. In a Phase 1 study, RE104 produced a psychedelic, psychoactive state similar in intensity and quality to psilocybin, but lasting only about half the time (3-4 hours) while demonstrating a similar, favorable safety profile. Reunion is evaluating RE104 in patients with underserved mental health disorders, beginning with postpartum depression (NCT06342310).
Details of the presentations are as follows:
