Australian life sciences and pharmaceutical Company Bioxyne Limited (ASX Code: BXN) (www.bioxyne.com) (“Bioxyne” or the “Company”), parent company of Breathe Life Sciences (“BLS”) (www.bls.com.au) and Cy Biopharma AG of Switzerland (www.cybiopharma.com) is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into a commercial supply and collaboration agreement.
Dr. Anton Hoos, CY Biopharma’s CEO commented, “There is a huge unmet medical need that 5HTx agonists may serve. Following the Australian government’s pioneering decision to allow select experts to prescribe psilocybin, Cy Biopharma is pleased to enter into this partnership with BLS. Together we plan to build a reliable supply of pharmaceutical grade, naturally derived psilocybin for patients in Australia and New Zealand.”
In the coming 90 days BLS expects to manufacture the first Australian-made GMP Psilocybin capsules in Australia for commercial supply to approved clinical trials and patients, via the Authorized Prescriber Channel.
In this period BLS also expects to supply its first psilocybin products to research organisations in Australia and New Zealand.
Sam Watson, CEO of Bioxyne commented, “Psychedelics are showing significant potential in the treatment of various mental health conditions; a beacon of hope for the large cohort of patients who do not respond to conventional treatment options. In Australia, 10.4% of people report experiencing symptoms of depression, and 33% of patients diagnosed with depression respond inadequately to current treatments within certain indications. Our goal is to help these patients get their lives back.”
