Mydecine Innovations Group announced a partnership with Combat Stress (Combat Stress) and the King's College London to utilize psilocybin as part of a psychoactive-assisted psychotherapy treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in veterans. Combat Stress will be one of several sites for Mydecine's upcoming clinical trials. Combat Stress is the leading charity aiding veterans' mental health in the United Kingdom, providing treatment and support to former servicemen and women for over a century.

They provide a range of online, community, outpatient and residential specialist mental health services to veterans with complex mental health issues related to their military service. Professor Dominic Murphy, Head of Research at Combat Stress and President of the UK Psychological Trauma Society, has been named a Principal Investigator for the study which will utilize Mydecine's lead psilocybin drug candidate, MYCO-001, as an adjunct to psychotherapy to treat severe PTSD in veterans that has otherwise been resistant to traditional forms of therapy. Data collected from the study will further advance Mydecine's drug development pipeline and their ability to bring a much needed novel treatment to market.
