About Tryp Therapeutics Inc.

Tryp Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing proprietary, novel formulations for the administration of psilocin in combination with psychotherapy to treat diseases with unmet medical needs. Tryp’s lead program, TRP-8803, is a proprietary formulation of IV-infused psilocin (the active metabolite of psilocybin) that alleviates numerous shortcomings of oral psilocybin including significantly reducing the time to onset of the psychedelic state, controlling the depth and duration of the psychedelic experience, and reducing the overall duration of the intervention to a commercially feasible timeframe. The company has initiated a phase 2a clinical trial for the treatment of binge eating disorder at the University of Florida, where an interim analysis showed an average reduction in binge eating episodes of greater than 80%. The company is also planning for phase 2a clinical trials with the University of Michigan for the treatment of fibromyalgia and with Massachusetts General Hospital for the treatment of abdominal pain related to irritable bowel syndrome. An IND for both of these trials has been cleared to proceed by the FDA. Each of the studies are utilizing TRP-8802 (synthetic oral psilocybin) to demonstrate clinical benefit in these indications. Where a preliminary clinical benefit is demonstrated, subsequent studies are expected to utilize TRP-8803 (IV-infused psilocin), which has the potential to further improve efficacy, safety and patient experience.
