A Vancouver-based company has received approval from Health Canada to study MDMA-assisted therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Numinus, a developer of psychedelic-assisted therapies for mental health care, announced that its study had been green-lit in a release issued earlier this month.
“We are thrilled that Health Canada has issued its No Objection Letter allowing this important study to proceed and, in doing so, potentially advance Canada toward a legal, regulated system for MDMA-assisted therapy,” said CEO Payton Nyquvest.
Numinus’ study will look at the safety and feasibility of using MDMA-assisted therapies to treat PTSD.
Researchers will collect data on the safety and effectiveness of the treatment in the hopes of making MDMA-assisted therapy available to all Canadians living with PTSD.

LBC applied at the City for, and received, a special use permit, or exception, to use its gymnasium for commercial purposes even though the gym is located on property that is zoned as residential. Some Santa Rita residents objected, fearing that allowing commercial use of the gym could become an initial domino to fall fostering an encroachment of commercial businesses into their historic neighborhood. The attorneys for the church said LBC was wanting to maximize the use of the gym facilities by leasing it to Texas Tumbleweeds that runs faith-based gymnastics programs for San Angelo youth.
