InvestorNewsBreaks – Mydecine Innovations Group Inc. (NEO: MYCO) (OTC: MYCOF) (FSE: 0NFA) Designs Family of MDMA Analogs, Files Full Patent Application

Jul 19, 2022

Mydecine Innovations (NEO: MYCO) (OTC: MYCOF) (FSE: 0NFA), a biotechnology company aiming to transform the treatment of mental health and addiction disorders, has successfully synthesized multiple short-acting MDMA analogs and has filed a patent covering these novel molecules. Experts at Mydecine specifically designed the family of analogs, which has been named MYCO-006, to have a shorter half-life than traditional MDMA. The patent application has been filed with the World Intellectual Property Organization. Often referred to as ecstasy, 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, or MDMA, is a synthetic drug that acts as a stimulant and hallucinogen. Mydecine has been working with the substance, having filed a provisional patent application for a family of MDMA-like compounds last year that was designed to reduce harm and improve safety compared to the traditional drug. According to the company, research that shows MDMA has the potential to make therapy of all types more effective as it has been shown to increase feelings of well-being and interpersonal trust while decreasing feelings of fear and defensiveness. However, one of the challenges of using the substance in therapy is that the effects of the drug last eight hours or longer; Mydecine believes that in order to make treatments accessible to the majority of the population, shorter-acting medicine might be more safe and effective in some situations. According to the announcement, the company is hoping to decrease the half-life of MDMA, resulting in treatments that can be easily repeated at a typical healthcare facility, making the treatments more accessible and affordable. “For these treatment modalities to be adopted and accepted by the general medical community, there must be a drug product that can be administered at existing clinics and hospitals in less time, and that will be reimbursed by insurance providers. We believe shortening the half life of MDMA is an important necessary step to making this possible,” said Mydecine Innovations CEO Josh Bartch in the press release. “Considering the incredible efficacy data being published on MDMA, and the frequent effect of boosting trust and well-being, we are incredibly excited about the potential to increase health equity for the large population in need with our MYCO-006 family of novel molecules.”

Tokong surges into PH Pro Round 2 in Siargao

MANILA, Philippines – John Mark “Marama” Tokong gave the Filipino crowd plenty to cheer about after beating Brazilian World No. 11 Samuel Pupo to advance to Round 2 of the World Surf League (WSL) Championship Tour Philippines Pro at Cloud 9 in Siargao on Sunday. Tokong put up 16.60 points on waves of 8.60 and 8.00, while Pupo could only manage 11.00 in their opening-round heat. Surfing before a big home crowd, Tokong handled the pressure well, making the most of the 6-to-8-foot waves under light conditions. He admitted that competing in front of his fellow Filipinos was not easy, but he tried not to think too much about the pressure once he got into the water. “It's crazy and amazing. There was a lot of pressure, but I just told myself to relax, keep things simple and enjoy the waves,” Tokong said. He could hear his family, friends and supporters cheering from the shore whenever he came out of a wave. For the Filipino surfer, that made the experience even more special. “I'm not doing this just for myself, but also for my family, friends, fans and especially the Philippines. Representing my country is very important to me,” he said. With one round behind him, Tokong is now looking forward to his next heat, hoping to give the Filipino fans another performance to cheer for. The Philippines Pro is presented by the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC), with the support of Surigao del Norte Gov. Robert Lyndon Barbers, General Luna Mayor Johnson Sajulga and Vice Mayor Romina Sajulga. The event also has the backing of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), Department of Tourism (DOT), Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA), and NEA/SIARELCO. Surfers who lose in the opening round will still receive US$13,000 (around P830,000), while the champion will collect US$80,000 (approximately P5.1 million). The competition is being livestreamed on the One Sports YouTube channel and Cignal Play. TMT

Wembanyama has 43 points and 6 blocks to lead Spurs past short-handed Timberwolves 121-111

SAN ANTONIO — Victor Wembanyama had 43 points, seven rebounds, six blocks and four assists as the San Antonio Spurs beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 121-111 on Saturday night for their fourth straight victory. Dylan Harper added 25 points and six assists for San Antonio in the opener of a three-game homestand. De’Aaron Fox scored 20. Wembanyama was 17 of 34 from the field in reaching 40 points for the 10th time in the regular season and the 11th time in his career. After blocking Jonathan Kuminga’s 3-point attempt, Wembanyama raced downcourt for a two-handed dunk to give him 40 points. Ayo Dosunmu had 27 points and nine rebounds to lead the short-handed Timberwolves. Kuminga and Jaden McDaniels added 19 points apiece. Minnesota was without injured starters Anthony Edwards (knee surgery) and Rudy Gobert (back spasms). LaMelo Ball was limited to 20 minutes due to foul trouble. The Spurs opened the second half on a 13-4 run that included a fifth foul on Ball, who fouled out with 3:43 remaining. He finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, four assists and three steals. San Antonio grabbed a 43-33 lead after Wembanyama threw the ball off the backboard to set up his own layup, which was followed by Harper stealing the ensuing inbounds pass for a layup. The Timberwolves went on a run shortly after Ball exited with 7:40 left in the first half after picking up his fourth foul. Minnesota responded by going on a 16-0 spurt to take a 51-46 lead. Kuminga and Dosunmu had five points apiece during the surge. Minnesota outscored San Antonio 33-26 in the second quarter, getting 10 points off five Spurs turnovers.
