What Is Compass Evaluating?
Compass is currently undertaking clinical trials of COMP360, a synthetic and proprietary formulation of psilocybin, designed for TRD.
The company announced in January that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had accepted its Investigational New Drug (IND) application for COMP360 for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), allowing the company to begin a late-stage trial.
Compass said it is working on making COMP360 ready for commercial launch by the end of the year for TRD as well.
“As our commercialization plans advance, our focus is on ensuring seamless access to COMP360 for patients living with TRD, if approved,” said Compass CEO Kabir Nath last month. The company said in January that it would disclose the results of the two ongoing Phase 3 trials in the second half of the first quarter (Q1).
The company expects to release the 26-week Part B data from its COMP006 trial for TRD in the early third quarter (Q3) this year.
