The trial was designed to evaluate TRP-8802 (oral psilocybin) in conjunction with psychotherapy in patients with fibromyalgia, a condition associated with widespread pain and comorbidities that significantly impact daily living and patient well-being. The trial was undertaken by the UOM, a top-ranked public university in the US in collaboration with Tryp.
Results highlighted that 100% of patients experienced reductions in fibromyalgia pain, sleep disturbance and pain interference (refer figures one and two below).
Whilst appreciating the limitations of the small number of patients and the open label nature of the ‘signal’ style study, the results are highly encouraging and considerably strengthen TYP’s intellectual property position. Further, the results validate Tryp’s clinical trial approach targeting nociplastic pain with an initial focus on fibromyalgia and will inform an additional clinical study utilising TRP-8803 (IV-infused psilocin), which is expected to commence H1 2025.
Trial background:
The study was an open-label clinical trial with psychotherapy, seeking to evaluate TRP-8802 (oral psilocybin) in conjunction with psychotherapy in patients with fibromyalgia. A total of five patients were recruited and were administered two doses of TRP-8802 in 15mg initial dose and 25mg second dose formats, two weeks apart. Patients were administered psychotherapy in concert with TRP-8802 and results were compared to baseline values one month following the completion of the second dose.
