Havn Life Sciences Signs Agreement to Supply Psychedelic Compounds for use in Research and Development to Revive Therapeutics

Havn Life will export naturally derived psilocybin to the United States for use in IND-enabling studies and future clinical trials under FDA guidelines

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 20, 2020 / Havn Life Sciences Inc. (CSE:HAVN) (FSE:5NP) (the “Company” or “Havn Life”), a biotechnology company focused on unlocking human potential using evidence-informed research and developing standardized psychoactive compounds derived from plants and fungi, is pleased to announce it has signed an agreement (the “Agreement”) to supply Revive Therapeutics Ltd. (CSE:RVV, USA:RVVTF) (“Revive Therapeutics”) with psychedelic compounds for use in investigational new drug (“IND”) enabling studies and future clinical trials under the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) guidelines.

Revive Therapeutics is a life sciences company focused on the research and development of therapeutics for rare disorders and infectious diseases. With its recent acquisition of Psilocin Pharma Corp. and advancements of its novel oral-thin film delivery system of psychedelic compounds, Revive is working to advance Psilocybin-based therapeutics for mental health and abuse disorders.

Revive’s psilocybin research for its oral-thin film delivery system and its clinical study in the treatment of methamphetamine use disorder are being run under FDA guidelines at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Although the psychedelic industry is in its infancy, the signing of a supply agreement serves as a validation for the Havn Life team and the Company’s business objectives and revenue streams. Havn Life recently announced the submission of its Licensed Dealer application to Health Canada.

“This agreement with Revive Therapeutics is just the beginning, the demand for naturally-derived psilocybin is there, and it is growing,” said Havn Life Co-CEO Susan Chapelle. “Our path at Havn Life has always been very clear: to supply standardized, quality-controlled compounds to researchers so they can do the research that’s necessary to document health and wellness benefits of psychedelic medicine and ultimately help the industry with the knowledge required to legalize these compounds. We are thrilled to have signed this supply agreement with Revive Therapeutics to help further their work in this field. Both of our companies are leading innovators in the space, and we look forward to helping Revive achieve their goals with our compound supply.”

Michael Frank, CEO of Revive, added: “We are excited about our strategic partnership with Havn Life as one of our suppliers of psychoactive compounds that we intend to develop and commercialize using our established tannin-chitosan based proprietary oral-thin film delivery system, for the pharmaceutical and wellness markets.”

The Agreement is reliant on Havn Life obtaining its Controlled Drugs, and Substances Dealers Licence from Health Canada, which the company applied for earlier this month. This is the Company’s first contract for the sale of psychedelic compounds.
