Revive Therapeutics to acquire the full rights to PharmaTher Inc.’s intellectual property pertaining to psilocybin

Revive Therapeutics Ltd., a specialty life sciences company focused on the research and development of therapeutics for medical needs and rare disorders, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent, to acquire the full rights to PharmaTher Inc.’s intellectual property pertaining to psilocybin. PharmaTher, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newscope Capital Corporation, is a specialty life sciences company focused on the research and development of psychedelic pharmaceuticals.

All intellectual and work property derived from PharmaTher’s pre-clinical research activities in traumatic brain injury and stroke, with the aim to obtain U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Orphan Drug Designation;

All intellectual property portfolio covering neurological disorders, cancers and novel combinations of psilocybin and FDA approved drugs;

All intellectual and work property derived from the study being currently undertaken by the National Health Research Institute in Taiwan; and key provisional patent applications with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, which include:

Psilocybin in the Treatment of Neurological Brain Injury - United States Provisional Application Serial No. 63/011,493 – Relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising psilocybin and their use for the treatment of neurological brain injuries and migraines.

Use of Psilocybin in the Treatment of Cancer, United States Provisional Application Serial No. 63/113,913 – Psilocybin’s use of significant unmet medical needs for Liver Carcinoma, Melanoma, Breast Neoplasms, Kidney Neoplasms and Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Psilocybin Pharmaceutical Combination Therapies, United States Provisional Application Serial No. 63/125,106 – Novel combinations of certain FDA approved drugs with psilocybin as a potential therapeutic option to reduce the side effects and improve the effectiveness of psilocybin to treat neurological disorders.

The Acquisition follows the previously announced exclusive research collaboration agreement with PharmaTher to accelerate the development of psilocybin in the treatment of cancer and the discovery of novel uses of undisclosed psychedelic compounds.

“Our psychedelics pharmaceutical program has been predominantly focused on the development and evaluation of our novel orally dissolvable thin film strip for psilocybin, and with the acquisition of PharmaTher’s proprietary psilocybin platform it will complement our objectives in commercializing a unique prescription-based psilocybin product for neurological disorders and FDA orphan drug indications,” said Michael Frank, CEO of Revive.

“PharmaTher discovers novel uses of psychedelic pharmaceuticals, such as psilocybin, and combinations with FDA-approved drugs for development internally or with pharmaceutical partners, such as Revive, which has a unique oral drug delivery system to complement our psilocybin development program,” said Fabio Chianelli, CEO of PharmaTher. “I am pleased that we have found a home for our psilocybin program which will allow us to solely focus our resources on our clinical-stage product pipeline with FDA-approved ketamine to treat neurological disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease and movement disorders, depression and pain.”
