Cybin Corp. recently announced its entry into a feasibility agreement with IntelGenx Corp., a leading drug-delivery company focused on the development and manufacturing of pharmaceutical delivery films (http://ibn.fm/TZeVy). Under the agreement, the two companies will collaborate to develop an orally dissolving, fast-acting film for the delivery of pharmaceutical-grade psilocybin. A recent article discussing this quotes Cybin’s Chief Medical Officer Dr. Jukka Karjalainen, who states, “We at Cybin are proud to be working with IntelGenx to develop a fast-acting psilocybin film. Compared to oral psilocybin capsules, which are subject to variable intestinal absorption and high first-pass metabolism in the liver, the systemic bioavailability of orally dissolving psilocybin film is expected to be quite high. In addition, the dose of psilocybin administered by an orally dissolving film is expected to be a fraction of what is required in oral capsules. Taken together, these features have the potential to increase both the safety and efficacy of psilocybin when administered in this manner.”
