Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB), a patient-first biotechnology company developing novel cannabinoid medicines to improve quality of life for cancer patients, today announced its entry into a definitive agreement to acquire MagicMed Industries Inc. in an all-stock transaction. MagicMed is a privately held biotechnology company focused on creating a library of novel derivative psychedelic molecules such as psilocybin, N,N-dimethyltryptamine (“DMT”) and other molecular derivatives with applications across multiple indications. “Our proposed acquisition of MagicMed underscores the core fundamental mission of Enveric to form a drug discovery and clinical stage biotechnology company with a focus on bringing forward nature-originated therapies to improve the standard of care and serve unmet needs in oncology and CNS indications,” said David Johnson, chairman and CEO of Enveric Biosciences. “Psychedelics and cannabinoids, in our opinion, have extensive patient benefits for the mind and body. We welcome MagicMed’s world-class research and development team led by Dr. Joseph Tucker, who not only have experience in psychedelic drug discovery, but also research experience in cannabinoids, as well. Patients who are currently being treated for cancer or are in remission are forced to face debilitating physical and mental side effects with very few treatment options available to alleviate their pain. PTSD, for example, is a significant unmet need for this patient population. Together, with the MagicMed team, following the closing of the acquisition, we plan to commence the discovery and development of psychedelics-derived therapies.”
