Develops psilocybin-based therapies for TRD
Company introduction:
Compass Pathways plc (Nasdaq: CMPS) is a biotechnology company dedicated to unlocking urgently needed new treatment options in mental health care.
The Company is headquartered in London, UK, with a U.S. office in New Jersey. We believe mental health patients deserve the possibility of a better future. Our initial focus is developing COMP360 psilocybin, a proprietary, investigational, synthetic psilocybin treatment under evaluation for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). COMP360 is a potentially first-in-class treatment and has Breakthrough Therapy designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as well as Innovative Licensing and Access Pathway (ILAP) designation in the UK for TRD.
We are leading the world’s largest classic psychedelic clinical program in TRD, and building upon that robust foundation, we are executing a late-stage trial evaluating COMP360 for PTSD, another condition with high unmet need. Our goal is to advance treatments that move the field of psychiatry towards treatment options that offer rapid onset and sustained durability with infrequent dosing. -Compass Pathways

Develops psilocybin-based therapies for TRD
COMPASS Pathways develops psilocybin-based therapies for mental health, focusing on treating treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Its lead drug candidate, COMP360, is a high-purity psilocybin formulation given alongside psychological support from trained therapists. The treatment is delivered through a global Phase 3 program, aiming to establish a regulatory-approved therapy. Compared with other players, COMPASS emphasizes a standardized therapeutic model that pairs a pharmaceutical compound with guided psychotherapy and has the largest psilocybin Phase 3 program to date, supported by Breakthrough Therapy designation from the FDA. The company originated from a nonprofit idea, transformed into a for-profit entity to fund extensive trials, and is pursuing regulatory approval and eventual commercialization through licensing and partnerships. Its goal is to bring approved, evidence-based psilocybin treatments to patients with TRD and scale access through a commercial pathway.
