In today’s episode, we discuss MindMed (Nasdaq: MNMD, NEO:MMED) and its Phase 2 LSD Trial Treating Anxiety Results.

MindMed (Nasdaq: MNMD, NEO:MMED) finally gave the world a glimpse into its LSD-as-medicine project today.

Speaking at the highly anticipated PSYCH Symposium in London, researchers Prof. Matthias Liechti and Dr. Friederike Holze presented topline data of a Phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, attempting to treat anxiety disorders with LSD in 46 patients. Patients received 200 µg (micrograms) of LSD, which is considered a large dose.

The results were very positive, though perhaps not paradigm shifting — yet.

The primary endpoint of the study was the reduction in anxiety levels 16 weeks after the administration of LSD. They measured this using a questionnaire called the State Trait Anxiety Inventory, better known by its acronym STAI. In short, a person can have a score between 0 and 63, with the higher the score, the worse the anxiety.

The study found that 65% of patients saw their anxiety levels drop by at least 30% from where they were before treatment, 16 weeks after dosing. This compared to only 9% of patients in the placebo arm reaching that 30% level. The average reduction in the STAI was 16.2 points.

Importantly, there was only one serious adverse event in the trial, which consisted of “acute transient anxiety and delusions” during the LSD experience. It does not appear that this patient had any troubles once the effects wore off. In sum, the administration of large doses of LSD appears to be very safe, even if one person did have a particularly bad experience during the dosing.

Furthermore, when looking at secondary variables that measure depression, anxiety and other major psychiatric symptoms (Hamilton Depression Scale, Beck Depression Index, Symptom-Check-List-90-R) the results “showed similarly rapid and sustained responses consistent with a lasting treatment effect.”

In sum, according to MindMed, the topline data demonstrates “the significant, rapid, durable, and beneficial effects of LSD and potential to safely mitigate symptoms of anxiety and depression.”

Last year, the Psychedelic Investor and the Reddit Page “ShroomStocks” managed to get the question of “would you ever invest in Psychedelic Stocks” asked to Cathie Wood of ARK Invest, and her answer was a dismissive NO. She said that ARK did not invest in binary stocks, though Kevin O’Leary, who was on the same panel disagreed.

Well, it seems that time (and maybe Kevin O’Leary) have changed her mind. On Wednesday, February 9th, it was revealed that the Ark Genomic Revolution ETF, ticker symbol ARKG, had purchased 83,278 shares of ATAI.

And while this only represents 0.01% of that fund’s total holdings, it does represent a big moment for the entire psychedelics industry. For better or worse, Cathie Wood has a huge voice among investors who like growth stocks, and next-generation technology stocks, which psychedelic stocks definitely represent.

This will likely put more focus, not only on atai, but the entire psychedelics sector. I would not be surprised if companies such as MindMed (MMEDF) and Cybin (CYBN) also benefit from this. Perhaps, in the future, Ark will also buy these companies.

Hopefully, this is but an opening position, and ARKG continues to buy psychedelic stocks such as atai and MindMed. Ideally, I would also like to see the flagship ETF, ARKK, also invest in psychedelic Stocks.
