CYB003, or CYB-003, also known as deuterated psilocybin analogue, is a serotonergic psychedelic related to psilocybin which is under development for the treatment of major depressive disorder, alcoholism, and other psychiatric disorders.[1][3][4][5][6][2][7] It is taken by mouth.[1]

It is a tryptamine derivative and is a deuterated analogue of psilocybin and psilocin.[1][4][5][2] The pharmacodynamic profile of CYB003, including its interactions with serotonin receptors and its effects in animals, is similar to that of psilocin.[2] As with psilocin, CYB003 is a potent agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor and produces psychedelic-like effects in animals.[2] However, it was developed to have improved pharmacokinetic properties compared to psilocybin, including reduced variability in circulating levels, a faster onset of action, and a shorter duration.[7]

As of October 2024, CYB003 is in phase 3 clinical trials for major depressive disorder and is in the preclinical stage of development for alcoholism and other psychiatric disorders.[1][3] Two phase 3 clinical trials for major depressive disorder are being initiated in November 2024 and February 2025.[1][3] The drug is under development by Cybin.[1][3] The chemical structure of CYB003 has not yet been disclosed.[5][4] However, Cybin patented deuterated tryptamines including the dideuterated psilocin analogue PI-α,α-d2 (psilocin dideuterated at the α carbon) in 2023.[8]
