BETTERLIFE PHARMA INC - BETRF STOCK NEWS

BetterLife Pharma Inc. (CSE: BETR / OTCQB: BETRF) announced that its collaborators from Carleton University will present findings on BETR-001, a non-hallucinogenic LSD derivative, at the SOBP Conference, April 27-29, 2023, in San Diego. Preclinical data indicate that BETR-001 enhances stress-coping behaviors and reverses anxiety and depression in mouse models, correlating with increased neuroplasticity in the prefrontal cortex. Driven by the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, these effects position BETR-001 as a promising candidate for treating mood disorders without the regulatory challenges of traditional psychedelics. CEO Ahmad Doroudian noted that ongoing IND-enabling studies will pave the way for human trials. BetterLife's proprietary patents protect BETR-001, facilitating potential self-administration and broader patient access.
