Output will be used to advance clinical testing of MEAI as a treatment for Alcohol Use Disorder and Binge Drinking

TORONTO, Ontario, Oct. 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via InvestorWire – Clearmind Medicine Inc. (CSE: CMND, FSE: CWY0), (“Clearmind” or the “Company“), a psychedelic medicine biotech company focused on the discovery and development of novel psychedelic-derived therapeutics to solve widespread and undertreated health problems, announces it has entered into a Development and Supply agreement with Aragen Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd (“Aragen”) for the production of its innovative molecule, 5-Methoxy-2-aminoindane (MEAI).

Aragen is a global leader in providing discovery, development and manufacturing solutions for life sciences firms under Good Manufacturing Practices. In accordance with the agreement, Aragen will do a process optimization and synthesis, manufacturing and supply of MEAI to Clearmind.

Adi Zuloff-Shani, Ph.D., CEO of Clearmind, commented, “Aragen is a world-class, life-sciences company with state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities and we chose to partner with them to leverage that expertise. Developing a pharmaceutical product is quite arduous; working with a manufacturer in Aragen’s caliber allows us to focus all our resources on furthering the research.”

MEAI is a unique synthetic, psychedelic molecule that simulates the euphoric alcohol experience while simultaneously reducing the desire to consume alcohol. Preclinical studies were extremely favorable, demonstrating a high safety profile and promising efficacy. The Company is now in the process of preparing for a pre-investigational new drug (“IND”) meeting with U.S. Food and Drug Administration staff, which will be followed by an IND application and a clinical trial in the second half of 2022.
