TORONTO, June 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Revive Therapeutics Ltd. (“Revive” or the “Company”) (CSE:RVV) (OTC: RVVTF), a specialty life sciences company focused on the research and development of therapeutics for medical needs and rare disorders, is pleased to announce an expansion to the sponsored research partnership agreement (“SRPA”) entered with the University of Wisconsin-Madison to evaluate novel formulations of psilocybin and a Phase 1 clinical study investigating the therapeutic application of psilocybin for an undisclosed addiction use disorder.

“We are pleased to have expanded our research partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the development of novel psilocybin formulations that will serve as the platform to create unique psychedelic-based therapeutics for clinical research targeting specific medical needs, such as addiction use disorders,” said Michael Frank, Revive’s Chief Executive Officer. “As part of our psychedelic-based pharmaceutical strategy, we are focused on balancing research and development of novel psilocybin-based formulations and clinical research of psilocybin to create a robust product pipeline backed by intellectual property and clinical data with the aim to pursue the FDA regulatory pathway for commercialization. Revive plans to expand its clinical development pipeline with psilocybin for various addiction and dependence disorders.”

The research and development work being carried out at the University of Wisconsin-Madison focuses on tannin-chitosan composites in the form of thin films, hydrogels and 3D foams. The research will include the development of composite formulations, physio-chemical characterization (e.g. tensile strength of films) of composite materials and rate of psilocybin release from composites. Final formulations will be investigated in pre-clinical and clinical studies in various diseases and disorders. The Company has identified tannin-chitosan composite thin films as the lead candidate for the development of a unique delivery platform for therapeutic doses (1-20mg) of psilocybin into the oral cavity.

The Company also plans to finalize a sponsorship program around a Phase 1 clinical study examining psilocybin for the treatment of an undisclosed addiction use disorder. The clinical study will be conducted at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, School of Medicine and Public Health, and School of Pharmacy, which holds a Wisconsin special authorization and DEA license to perform clinical research with psilocybin.
