Today, the company prognosticated on when that may be, provided that Phase 3 clinical trial success is achieved.

According to Tommaso Barba, PhD candidate at the Centre for Psychedelic Research, Imperial College London, COMPASS Pathways representatives indicated that psilocybin therapy may achieve commercialization ‘by the beginning of 2027’, with results from the Phase 3 trial coming in ‘mid 2024’ and 2025, respectively. It is unclear whether the timeline for commercialization refers to post-European or U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulatory approval.
