AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent describes a compound (Formula I) and its pharmaceutical use. The compound has reduced side effects compared to its natural counterpart, which means it is safer and more tolerable. The compound also has a longer duration of action and lower exposure in the body, which means it can be taken less frequently and with fewer side effects. Additionally, the compound has improved patient compliance and ease of use.

Problems solved by technology

However, psilocybin is considered an illegal drug in most countries and is currently a “Schedule I” substance in the United States, like heroin and LSD.

example 1

[0134]A study was conducted to assess the metabolic stability and metabolite formulation of psilocin and d10-psilocin (the compound of Formula (IB-1)) in human hepatocytes under the conditions set forth in Table 1.

TABLE 1Study speciesHuman (mixed gender, lot HQE, viability85%)Incubation volume300 μl, pH 7.4 Celsis IVT In Vitro GROKHB mediumSampling volume40 μL  Cell viability1.0 million viable cells / mlDMSO content0.5%Incubation time0, 10, 20, 40 and 60 min @ 37° C.Replicates2  Termination of incubations2 - fold volume of cold 75% acetonitrileStorage of the samplesImmediate analysisTest compound concentration1 μMControlVerapamil

[0135]The results of the study are as follows. The half-lives of psilocin and d10-psilocin were calculated to be 178 minutes vs. 298 minutes, respectively. For psilocin, approximately 78% of parent remained after the 60-minute incubation, whereas for d10-psilocin approximately 84% of parent remained after the 60-minute incubation. The major metabolite for both...

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 17 / 117,916, filed Dec. 10, 2020, which claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 106,662, filed Oct. 28, 2020, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 089,396, filed Oct. 8, 2020; the contents of each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]Psilocybin is a tryptamine alkaloid, which may be isolated from various genera of fungi including the genus Psilocybe. Psilocybin is known to have hallucinogenic, anxiolytic, and psychoactive activities. In vivo, psilocybin is rapidly dephosphorylated into the active compound psilocin, which activates serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), mimicking the effects of serotonin.[0003]Psilocybin has been investigated as a potential treatment for anxiety and depression in life-threatening diseases, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, alcoholis...
