Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB) has secured U.S. Patent No. 12,195,439 for its new EVM401 Series of mescaline derivative compounds. The patent, issued on January 14, 2025, covers 'Cl-Substituted Isopropylamine Fused Heterocyclic Mescaline Derivatives.'

Preliminary testing shows these compounds demonstrate unique brain receptor modulation patterns, potentially interacting with:

  • α2A adrenergic receptor (ADRA2A) - helpful for opioid withdrawal and ADHD
  • 5-HT2C receptor - target for neuropsychiatric diseases, substance use disorders, anxiety and depression
  • Dopamine transporter (DAT) - important for substance use disorder treatment

While the company's main focus remains on the IND application for EB-003, this patent aims to expand their pipeline of non-hallucinogenic molecules for treating addiction and neuropsychiatric disorders.

Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB) ha ottenuto il brevetto statunitense n. 12.195.439 per la sua nuova serie EVM401 di composti derivati dalla mescalina. Il brevetto, rilasciato il 14 gennaio 2025, copre i 'Derivati della mescalina eterociclici fusi con isopropilammina Cl-sostituita.'

I test preliminari mostrano che questi composti dimostrano schemi unici di modulazione dei recettori cerebrali, potenzialmente interagendo con:

  • Recettore adrenergico α2A (ADRA2A) - utile per il ritiro da oppiacei e ADHD
  • Recettore 5-HT2C - obiettivo per malattie neuropsichiatriche, disturbi da uso di sostanze, ansia e depressione
  • Trasportatore della dopamina (DAT) - importante per il trattamento dei disturbi da uso di sostanze

Sebbene l'attenzione principale dell'azienda rimanga sull'applicazione IND per EB-003, questo brevetto mira ad espandere il loro portafoglio di molecole non allucinogene per il trattamento della dipendenza e dei disturbi neuropsichiatrici.

Insights

Enveric Biosciences' newly secured U.S. Patent No. 12,195,439 represents a strategic expansion of the company's intellectual property portfolio beyond its lead EB-003 program. This patent protection for the EVM401 Series of mescaline derivative compounds could prove valuable for several reasons:

The preliminary receptor binding profile of these compounds is particularly intriguing from a therapeutic perspective. The triple-target mechanism - affecting ADRA2A, 5-HT2C, and DAT receptors - potentially addresses multiple neurological pathways implicated in addiction and neuropsychiatric disorders. This multi-modal approach differentiates Enveric's compounds from single-target therapies that often show efficacy in complex neuropsychiatric conditions.

From a market positioning standpoint, this patent strategically places Enveric in the rapidly growing neuropsychiatric therapeutics space, which is projected to exceed $58 billion globally by 2027. The addiction treatment segment alone represents a $31 billion opportunity, with innovation in recent decades creating substantial unmet needs.

While the patent announcement doesn't alter Enveric's near-term clinical timelines focused on EB-003, it does enhance the company's strategic optionality. For a small-cap biotech with resources, having multiple protected compound series creates valuable business development opportunities:

  • Potential licensing deals to generate non-dilutive funding
  • Partnership opportunities to advance secondary programs
  • Enhanced M&A attractiveness with a broader protected pipeline
  • Risk diversification beyond the lead program

Investors should note that despite this positive development, significant challenges remain. The EVM401 Series appears to be in early preclinical stages, likely requiring substantial investment and 3-5 years of development before potential clinical trials. The company's focus on its lead EB-003 program suggests these newly patented compounds may progress at a measured pace unless external partnerships are secured.

This patent issuance ultimately strengthens Enveric's competitive position in neuropsychiatric drug development while potentially creating multiple paths to value creation beyond its lead program - an important consideration for a company with a market capitalization of approximately $2.6 million.

New patent for mescaline derivative compounds broadens Enveric’s potential to develop neuroplastogen therapeutics for addiction and neuropsychiatric disorders

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB) (“Enveric” or the “Company”), a biotechnology company dedicated to the development of novel neuroplastogenic small-molecule therapeutics for the treatment of depression, anxiety, and addiction disorders, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued U.S. Patent No. 12,195,439 (the ‘439 patent) on January 14, 2025.

Entitled “Cl-Substituted Isopropylamine Fused Heterocyclic Mescaline Derivatives,” the ‘439 patent is the first Enveric patent to be issued for its new EVM401 Series. Further development of the EVM401 Series of compounds is intended to broaden Enveric’s pipeline with additional non-hallucinogenic molecules and strengthen its ability to target addiction and neuropsychiatric disorders for patients with limited options. Preliminary testing of the EVM401 series of compounds and their metabolites has demonstrated unique patterns of brain receptor modulation emerging from the compounds’ distinct molecular structures.

Specifically, preliminary data suggest that these mescaline derivative compounds may interact with a variety of important neurological receptors, including the α2A adrenergic receptor (ADRA2A), the 5-HT2C receptor, and the dopamine transporter (DAT). ADRA2A agonists are known to help manage the symptoms of opioid withdrawal and treat conditions such as ADHD, while the 5-HT2C receptor is an emerging therapeutic target in the treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including substance use disorders, anxiety and depression. Notably, DAT is also an important target in the treatment of substance use disorders.

“Enveric is pleased to have secured this foundational U.S. patent and is excited for the potential of the EVM401 Series,” said Dr. Joseph Tucker, CEO of Enveric. “While our corporate and development strategy is focused squarely on preparing for the Investigational New Drug application for EB-003, we continue to explore opportunities to expand our development pipeline in order to build shareholder value.”
