We are excited to announce the initiation of our Phase 1b clinical trial evaluating DLX-001, a novel #neuroplastogen, in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). MDD is a complex and widespread mental health condition that affects over 280 million people globally, including 21 million in the United States. Despite available treatment options, many patients do not experience a fast and durable response, highlighting the critical need for new and differentiated treatments. This trial marks an important advancement in Delix's mission to pioneer cutting-edge #neurotherapeutics that enhance neuroplasticity and deliver transformative outcomes for patients.

#Psychedelics hold immense promise for treating #neuropsychiatric disorders, but can scientists separate their therapeutic benefits from hallucinatory effects? In a groundbreaking study published in Science Magazine, Delix Therapeutics’s Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer, Professor David E. Olson, and the researchers at the University of California, Davis and UC Davis Institute for Psychedelics and Neurotherapeutics, leverage innovative neuronal reactivation techniques to uncover distinct neural circuits responsible for the therapeutic, anxiolytic effects versus the hallucinatory effects. This research strongly supports Delix’s underlying thesis and validates the feasibility of developing non-hallucinogenic #neuroplastogens that deliver the therapeutic benefits of psychedelics—safely, effectively, and at scale.

At Delix Therapeutics, we value hard work, collaboration, and connection both in and outside the office. These moments outside of work bring our team even closer together, strengthening our commitment to the important work we do to advance #brainhealth.

🌍 A recent study in The Lancet Psychiatry revealed that 1 in 2 people worldwide will develop a mental health disorder during their lifetime. 🧠 With up to 46% of depression patients not fully responding to traditional antidepressants (National Institutes of Health), the need for new treatments is more critical than ever. This #WorldMentalHealthDay, Cumulus Neuroscience is proud to work with Delix Therapeutics, a company transforming brain health by developing treatments that are safe, fast-acting, and long-lasting. By targeting #neuroplasticity and bringing the first novel #neuroplastogen to the clinic, Delix is bringing much-needed hope to those facing difficult-to-treat #neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders. #WMHD2024 #CNS #DigitalBiomarkers #Innovation #MentalHealthMatters
