Lykos Therapeutics’ Post

Message from Kabir Nath (CEO):   Happy New Year! At Compass, we are excited to be kicking off 2025 with strong momentum, and I want to share my excitement for the year ahead. 2025 will be a critical year for Compass and we are looking forward to the first data readout from our phase 3 TRD program expected in the second quarter.    Our focus for 2025 is clear: delivering on our phase 3 TRD program and now, also accelerating a late-stage development program in PTSD, both areas of critical unmet need. We are inspired by the patients and their families who are waiting for better treatment options for these devastating conditions.      Here’s to a successful, impactful, and inspiring 2025!   Read more, including important cautionary statements about forward-looking information, here in our most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q: https://lnkd.in/e6KxY23A

Get ready with me as I provide training with ADP leadership team on the impact of domestic violence (DV) and its profound neurological effects. 💡 Understanding how trauma rewires the brain is key to offering informed support and creating a safe, empathetic environment. Together, we’re building stronger, more resilient teams that recognize the signs of trauma and are equipped to respond with care and compassion. #LeadershipTraining #DomesticViolenceAwareness #TraumaInformedCare #NeurologicalImpact #SupportAndSafety"

A bipartisan group of U.S. representatives is urging the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to prepare for implementing MDMA therapy for veterans if FDA approved. The FDA is considering approving such treatments for PTSD by this summer. This move could pave the way for the first federally backed psychedelic-assisted therapy in the United States. The lawmakers are emphasizing the need for innovative therapies to combat PTSD, steering away from opioids. The group, led by Reps. Morgan Luttrell and Morgan McGarvey, seeks to ensure veterans have access to these groundbreaking therapies while addressing staffing challenges for in-person monitoring during psychedelic dosing sessions. Stay tuned for updates before the FDA's review deadline in August 2024. #USRepresentatives #VeteransAffairs #MDMAtherapy #FDAapproval #PTSDtreatment #PsychedelicTherapy #InnovativeTherapies #CombatPTSD #OpioidAlternative #FederallyBacked #Lawmakers #VeteransHealthcare #GroundbreakingTherapies #StaffingChallenges #MonitoringSessions #FDAReview #August2024Deadline #MorganLuttrell #MorganMcGarvey #PTSDAwareness #HealthcareInnovation #TherapyProgress #MentalHealthcare #VeteransSupport #FDARegulation #HistoricalTherapies #USHealthcare #ProgressiveTherapies #VeteransMentalHealth #NextWaveTherapies

There isn't a single treatment for #PTSD because each person is unique in their needs. Talk therapies, medication and cognitive therapies are most commonly used today. New therapies such as #VNS are being researched and tested in clinical trials to provide other options to patients. #ptsdawareness Learn how to get started with #PTSDtreatments from U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs: ▪Why Get Treatment? ▪Choosing a Treatment ▪Types of Providers ▪Signs of Good PTSD Care https://lnkd.in/eqxTWZ5

Incredibly proud to have collaborated with Schizophrenia & Psychosis Action Alliance on meeting design, facilitation, and reporting for their inaugural SPRING 2024 Summit. The report, Roadmap to Recovery, charts a course to transform our broken system of care, created through the groundbreaking collaboration of 125 stakeholders – including those diagnosed with #schizophrenia and their care partners; clinicians; judges; and community leaders.  What I love the most about the SPRING 2024 Summit is its multi-stakeholder model. People who live with the disease are often overlooked in efforts to identify solutions, yet all of these perspectives are critical if we are to effectively improve the schizophrenia journey. “Working together with all of the stakeholders who play a role in the diagnosis, treatment and support of people living with schizophrenia – with the voices of those living with this severe brain disease ringing the loudest – we will deliver on a roadmap designed to shatter the barriers to treatment, survival and recovery.” Kudos to S&PAA!

The Fabric of Society continually brings trauma in people’s lives. The National Center for PTSD, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, tells us: 💥 6 out of every 10 men 💥 5 out of every 10 women … will experience at least one trauma in their lives. If we factor in duration, recurrence, severity - can you imagine what the compounding effect is on every person and every society? It is time for real, patient-driven, first-line solutions, TODAY! #mentalhealth #PTSD #medicine #brainhealth #biotech

Blast damage isn’t limited to the doors we blow up. Although an important part of the mission, the long-term effects of concussive events can lead to significant health challenges, including a reduction in lifespan by up to nine years.

The Boston Red Sox and Mass General are addressing this issue through 14-day immersive clinical treatment programs with leading professionals in athletics and medicine.
