Filament will license PEX010, its proprietary botanical psilocybin drug candidate, to Cybin Therapeutics for use in two upcoming Phase II clinical trials awaiting Health Canada approval

Vancouver, British Columbia, January 14, 2022  – Filament Health Corp. (OTCQB:FLHLF) (NEO:FH) (FSE:7QS) (“Filament” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage natural psychedelic drug development company, today announced that it has entered into a licensing agreement with Cybin Therapeutics (“CT”), a private therapeutic bioscience company on a mission to discover and develop psilocybin assisted therapeutic protocols to treat mild mood disorders and addictions. Under the agreement, Filament will license PEX010, its botanical psilocybin drug candidate, to CT for two upcoming Phase II clinical trials addressing depression and alcohol use disorder with an additional two planned for 2022.
