The Company's clinical-grade GMP MDMA product is now known as "Laneo"

VANCOUVER,BC , June 24, 2022 /CNW/ - PharmAla Biotech (CSE: MDMA) has registered a trademark for its clinical-grade MDMA product, which shall be marketed as Laneo MDMA. PharmAla is currently the only publicly-traded company to have developed a full manufacturing value chain for MDMA.

"While MDMA is a generic drug, there's a huge difference between illicit drug manufacture and our clinical-grade product. Only one is appropriate for use in scientific research: Laneo MDMA," said Nick Kadysh , CEO of PharmAla Biotech. "With this trademark registration, PharmAla continues to establish itself as the leader in MDMA manufacture, research, and development."

A number of customers have already made deposits for Laneo MDMA, and the company anticipates initial product deliveries to be made in Fall of 2022. Laneo MDMA is initially available to customers in both a 40mg formulated clinical trial capsule and as pure Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) which can be compounded by a qualified pharmacist. In the future, a range of drug product formulations can be developed.

"We're speaking to customers every day who are excited to initiate clinical trials with MDMA – but they are unable to do so because up until now, they didn't have access to clinical trial supply of drug product," said David Purcell , Director of Sales at PharmAla Biotech. "PharmAla Biotech's Laneo MDMA is the answer."

A dozen European Union countries have now been affected by cuts to gas supply from Russia, EU climate policy chief Frans Timmermans said on Thursday, as the bloc faces a deepening energy standoff with Moscow. Russia slashed flows through its Nord Stream 1 pipeline to 40% of capacity last week citing problems with equipment, having already cut gas to Poland, Bulgaria, the Netherlands, Denmark and Finland over their refusal to comply with a new payment scheme. Timmermans said 10 of the EU's 27 member countries have issued an "early warning" on gas supply - the first and least severe of three crisis levels identified in EU energy security regulations.

The Federal Reserve's commitment to reining in 40-year-high inflation is "unconditional," U.S. central bank chief Jerome Powell told lawmakers on Thursday, even as he acknowledged that sharply higher interest rates may push up unemployment.

Powell's testimony marked a second straight day of grilling in Congress over the Fed's efforts to control inflation that, by the central bank's preferred measure, is running at more than three times its 2% target.

The Western Australia parliamentary report on Thursday detailed what it said was horrifying behaviour against women in the mining industry, and recommended sweeping changes including setting up a register of sexual offenders. "It (the report) is comprehensive and confronting in highlighting both the unacceptable treatment of women and, even more shockingly, the fact that this treatment has until recent times been invisible to employers in the mining industry," Australia’s Sex Discrimination Commissioner Kate Jenkins told Reuters in a statement.
