As largely expected, the results of the confirmatory phase 3 study, named MDMA-assisted therapy for moderate to severe PTSD: a randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial indicated
With its established clinic network, Numinus stands ready to offer MDMA-assisted therapy pending appropriate regulatory approvals. The company has already initiated a comprehensive practitioner training pathway to train qualified professionals to meet the demand for MDMA-assisted therapy.

Mr. Nyquvest continued: "At Numinus, we're well-positioned to welcome clients looking for relief from PTSD, and expect to be able to add MAPS's MDMA-assisted therapy protocol to our existing service offering within our clinic network following regulatory approval.

This multi-site, randomized, double-blind, confirmatory phase 3 study evaluated the efficacy and safety of MDMA-assisted therapy ("MDMA-AT") compared to placebo, with identical therapy in participants with moderate to severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Participants were ethnoracially diverse, which is important because gender-diverse and transgender individuals, ethnoracial minorities, first responders, military personnel, veterans and victims of chronic sexual abuse have a disproportionately higher risk of developing PTSD due to disparities in trauma exposure. These diverse populations are historically underrepresented in clinical trials.
