Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 17/117,916, filed Dec. 10, 2020, which claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/106,662, filed Oct. 28, 2020, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/089,396, filed Oct. 8, 2020; the contents of each of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

BACKGROUND

Psilocybin is a tryptamine alkaloid, which may be isolated from various genera of fungi including the genus Psilocybe. Psilocybin is known to have hallucinogenic, anxiolytic, and psychoactive activities. In vivo, psilocybin is rapidly dephosphorylated into the active compound psilocin, which activates serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptors in the central nervous system (CNS), mimicking the effects of serotonin.
Psilocybin has been investigated as a potential treatment for anxiety and depression in life-threatening diseases, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, alcoholism and nicotine addiction, cluster headaches and autism. However, psilocybin is considered an illegal drug in most countries and is currently a “Schedule I” substance in the United States, like heroin and LSD.
There is a long felt need for safe and effective pharmacotherapies, especially for severe depression, treatment resistant depression, and psychological distress related with life-threatening diseases. It has been surprisingly discovered that the compositions and methods described herein are superior to existing psilocybin-based therapies that have been investigated or are in development to address this long felt need. In addition, it has been surprisingly discovered that deuteration is particularly advantageous for controlled substances, such as psilocybin, as the labeled nature of the substance will allow healthcare providers and law enforcement to distinguish (e.g. by analytical methods) use of a regulated drug product containing the substance from illegal uses, e.g., the consumption of mushrooms containing psilocybin.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to compositions (e.g., pharmaceutical compositions) comprising deuterated derivatives of psilocybin ([3-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-1H-indol-4-yl]dihydrogen phosphate), including deuterated forms of its active metabolite, psilocin (4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine).

Definitions

Before further description of the present invention, and in order that the invention may be more readily understood, certain terms are first defined and collected here for convenience.
The terms “composition” and “formulation” are used interchangeably.
The term “total amount of psilocybin” refers to the combined total amount of deuterated psilocybin and natural (non-isotopically enriched) psilocybin.
The term “total amount of psilocin” refers to the combined total amount of deuterated psilocybin and natural (non-isotopically enriched) psilocybin
The amount of an active agent (e.g., deuterated psilocybin or deuterated psilocin) or combination of active agents thereof included in a provided composition described herein will depend on the target population. In some embodiments, a provided composition contains an effective amount of an active agent (e.g., deuterated psilocybin or deuterated psilocin). The term “effective amount,” as used herein, refers to a sufficient amount of the active agent (e.g., deuterated psilocybin or deuterated psilocin) to produce a desired outcome. The exact amount required will vary from subject to subject, depending on the species, age, general condition of the subject, and the indication. The term “therapeutically effective amount” as used herein refers to a sufficient amount of a pharmaceutical agent (e.g., deuterated psilocybin or deuterated psilocin) to achieve the intended purpose, such as, for example, to cause a reduction of symptoms of a condition or disease. A “prophylactically effective amount” refers to a sufficient amount of a pharmaceutical agent (e.g., deuterated psilocybin or deuterated psilocin) to achieve the intended purpose, such as prevention of a condition or disease, one or more symptoms associated with the condition or disease, and/or the recurrence thereof. In certain embodiments, an effective amount of a composition is the effective amount of the active agent (e.g., deuterated psilocybin or deuterated psilocin) included in the composition.
The phrase “same or equivalent amount” as used herein refers to amounts as measured by mass or by moles, respectively.
The term “deuterated” refers to a compound or substituent in which one or more protium (¹H) atom(s) is/are replaced by one or more deuterium atom(s) and in which the abundance of deuterium at each deuterated position of the compound is higher than the natural abundance of deuterium, which is about 0.015%. The terms “is deuterium” and “are deuterium” refers to atom(s) in a compound in which one or more protium (¹H) atom(s) is/are replaced by one or more deuterium atom(s).

Example 1

A study was conducted to assess the metabolic stability and metabolite formulation of psilocin and d10-psilocin (the compound of Formula (IB-1)) in human hepatocytes under the conditions set forth in Table 1.

TABLE 1

Study species	Human (mixed gender, lot
	HQE, viability 85%)
Incubation volume	300 μl, pH 7.4 Celsis IVT In
	Vitro GRO KHB medium
Sampling volume	40 μL
Cell viability	1.0 million viable cells/ml
DMSO content	0.5%
Incubation time	0, 10, 20, 40 and 60 min @ 37° C.
Replicates	2
Termination of incubations	2 - fold volume of cold 75% acetonitrile
Storage of the samples	Immediate analysis
Test compound concentration	1 μM
Control	Verapamil

The results of the study are as follows. The half-lives of psilocin and d10-psilocin were calculated to be 178 minutes vs. 298 minutes, respectively. For psilocin, approximately 78% of parent remained after the 60-minute incubation, whereas for d10-psilocin approximately 84% of parent remained after the 60-minute incubation. The major metabolite for both psilocin and d10-psilocin was the reversible metabolite psilocin-O-glucuronide, with approximately 10% of d10-psilocin converting to the glucuronide after 60-minute incubation and approximately 13% of psilocin converting to the glucuronide after 60-minute incubation. The inactive and irreversible metabolite 4-hydroxy-indole-3-acetic acid was undetected after 60-minute incubation of d10-psilocin and approximately 0.1% of psilocin after 60-minute incubation.
