"Our work is focused on developing safe and effective psychedelic-based treatments for mental health conditions that are designed to achieve better clinical outcomes with fewer side effects for patients,” said Doug Drysdale, Cybin’s Chief Executive Officer. “The Milken Institute Global Conference provides an ideal opportunity to engage with global thought leaders working to improve the mental health landscape and to share the innovative clinical work that Cybin is doing to address the significant unmet need for new treatment options for people suffering from these devastating conditions.”

Current treatments for depression and other mental health disorders have limited effectiveness, leaving a treatment gap for many patients. According to the World Health Organization, there are more than 800,000 suicides each year globally.1 Up to 30% of people with depression do not respond to traditional antidepressant treatments.2 Emerging research has demonstrated the potential for psychedelic-based treatment to improve symptoms and quality of life for patients with mental health conditions such as Major Depressive Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder,3,4 two indications that Cybin is targeting with its clinical development programs.
