NOTES:
- Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and assumptions. See “Cautionary Statement” on page 2 of this presentation.
- Subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals from all applicable governmental authorities, including, as applicable, the academic and scientific organizations with which Cybin is working. There are multiple risk factors regarding the ability to successfully commercially scale a chemically synthesized process to obtain psilocybin and other analogues.

Our Psychedelic Molecules & Program Overview
CYB003: Deuterated Psilocybin Analog
Our lead investigational molecule, CYB003, is derived from psilocybin, which is part of a family of molecules called indolamines that includes more common neurotransmitters, such as serotonin. Psilocybin is dephosphorylated to form its metabolite, psilocin, which can cross the blood-brain-barrier. Given its structural similarity to serotonin, psilocybin can easily activate the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor. CYB003 is a deuterated psilocybin analog designed to achieve less variability in plasma levels, faster onset of action, shorter duration of effect and potentially better tolerability for an overall better outcome for patients. CYB003 has the potential to effectively treat major depressive disorder (MDD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD).
Current status: First Participants Dosed in its Phase 1/2a Trial of CYB003 for the Treatment of Major Depressive Disorder
CYB004: Deuterated Dimethyltryptamine (DMT)
CYB004 is a deuterated dimethyltryptamine (DMT), which has been shown to exert its psychedelic effects by activating the 5-HT2A receptor. In its natural form, DMT is rapidly metabolized in the body, unstable and not orally bioavailable. Based on preclinical studies, deuterated DMT has the potential to overcome these limitations and provide increased oral and pulmonary bioavailability, faster onset with lower doses, less patient variability, and better dose titration for fewer side effects and longer acting desensitization of the serotonergic receptors. CYB004 has the potential to effectively treat Generalized Anxiety Disorder with or without major depressive disorder.
Current status: Conducting Phase 1 in-human study evaluating 50 healthy volunteers
CYB005: Discovery-Phase Phenethylamine Derivative
CYB005 is a discovery-phase phenethylamine derivative with the potential to effectively treat neuroinflammation and psychiatric conditions.
Current status: In preclinical development
Patents
Cybin has multiple patent filings covering a wide range of novel psychedelic compounds from different classes, including targeted structural modifications to improve the drug pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety profiles without altering their receptor binding.
These novel drug delivery platform claims are expected to enable administration of the psychedelic drugs with faster onset of action, higher bioavailability by way of bypassing the liver metabolism, and expected to offer more control for better patient experience and optimized therapeutic outcomes.
Cybin was granted a patent by the USPTO for CYB004, its proprietary deuterated DMT molecule, in February 2022. The allowed claims include a range of deuterated forms of DMT and 5-MeO-DMT, and protects CYB004 drug substance as a putative new chemical entity.
Our Work
Our 3 Pillar Strategy
Novel Drug Discovery Platform
API Modification
Develop new API’s via selective modifications of tryptamine and phenethylamine-based scaffolds specifically to alter their pharmacokinetics without modifying their therapeutic potential.
Modifications involve replacing selective hydrogens with deuterium atoms.
Optimizing unique physicochemical attributes e.g. salts, crystal forms, co-crystals, etc.
Proprietary Drug Delivery Systems
Research and Development
Efficient delivery system that attempts to bypass the liver metabolism with a direct path to the brain providing a faster onset of action.
Modified-release formulations with the potential to reduce side effects and to control exposure.
Dose control through proprietary device platform.
Delivery systems may be applied to many psychedelic compounds.
Innovative Treatment Regimen
Science Meets Technology
Software-based platform to gather clinical research data from psychedelic treatment.
