Psychedelics guidance from the FDA set to benefit developers, including AtaiBeckley, Jefferies says
The US Food and Drug Administration's finalized guidance on psychedelic drug development signals the agency remains receptive to helping developers navigate the approval process, a development that Jefferies said could benefit companies including Compass Pathways (NASDAQ:CMPS), AtaiBeckley Inc. (NASDAQ:ATAI, XETRA:9VC), Cybin Inc. (NYSE-A:CYBN, FRA:R7E), GH Research (NASDAQ:GHRS), Awakn Life Sciences (NEO:AWKN) and others in the sector. The firm wrote on Monday that the final guidance, alongside the FDA's plans to hold a public hearing on September 14, points to a more supportive regulatory environment that could reduce regulatory risk for psychedelic drug developers.
GH Research: Rapid Onset And Short Action Change The Treatment Paradigm
GH Research is advancing GH001, an inhalable mebufotenin therapy, in treatment-resistant depression. GH Research's Phase 2b data was strong, and a global Phase 3 program is expected in 2026. While the rapid onset and short psychedelic experience duration offered by GH001 are compelling it remains to be seen how the drug stacks up against peers under real-world conditions.
GH Research FY25 Results: Strong Cash Position As GH001 Advances Toward Phase 3
GH Research PLC remains well-capitalized with $280.7 million in cash, supporting its lead candidate GH001 for Treatment-Resistant Depression. GHRS's investment thesis centers on replicating strong Phase 2b efficacy for GH001 in a pivotal Phase 3 trial, with rapid, durable antidepressant effects and operational simplicity. The FDA has cleared GH001 for U.S. clinical investigation, positioning GHRS for a global Phase 3 program starting in 2026 without immediate capital constraints.
