MDMA is the most studied empathogen to date and has been shown to be an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in multiple phase 3 trials.

Key Points: 
  • MDMA is the most studied empathogen to date and has been shown to be an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in multiple phase 3 trials.
  • Historically, MDMA has only been developed as a single salt and the crystal structures of its enantiomers had not been characterized.
  • As previously reported, Terran found that the S enantiomer of MDEA had significant advantages over the (R)-MDEA in preclinical models.
  • Terran is also developing the S enantiomer of MBDB which was shown to have significant advantages over (R)-MBDB in preclinical models.
