\nCompass Pathways plc (Nasdaq: CMPS), a biotechnology company dedicated to accelerating patient access to evidence-based innovation announced today it is entering into a strategic collaboration with HealthPort, a multi-site comprehensive community health organization. HealthPort employs an integrated model centered around social determinants of health and this collaboration will help inform the potential delivery of COMP360 synthesized psilocybin treatment in underserved communities, if FDA approved. This agreement with HealthPort expands the set of collaborations that Compass has established representing a broad spectrum of settings where people living with treatment resistant depression (TRD) receive their care in the United States.\n<\/p>\n
\nHealthPort offers an integrated model of care aimed at helping those with behavioral health conditions and people impacted by poverty, disability and trauma. HealthPort is an evidence-based practice supporting thirteen dimensions of social determinants of health, including the coordination of an integrated outpatient mental health and addictions health clinic. HealthPort has been operating facility, residential, and mobile based interventions of care in the lower Eastern Shore of Maryland for the past 45 years.\n<\/p>\n
\nTogether, Compass and HealthPort will learn about the challenges and barriers to equitable access to new mental health treatments and they will conduct research into training and care reimbursement processes for COMP360, if approved. The companies will explore how investigational COMP360 synthesized psilocybin treatment might fit into an integrated health delivery practice similar to HealthPort. This exploration is designed to provide a template for potential future implementation and delivery of COMP360 within community care settings across the US. COMP360 is a synthesized, proprietary formulation of psilocybin under investigation as a treatment for certain difficult-to-treat mental health conditions, including treatment resistant depression (TRD).\n<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe are proud to collaborate with Compass Pathways and to contribute to learning how COMP360 psilocybin treatment may be most effectively delivered to patients in underserved communities, if that treatment receives all necessary approvals for TRD,\u201d said Dimitrios Cavathas, CEO of HealthPort. \u201cWe are committed to addressing the social determinants of health that impact our community members and collaborating with Compass will help further our mission to serving the unique needs of our people.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe strive to improve mental healthcare for every person who needs help, and we recognize the challenges to access for underserved populations and the potential for innovative treatments, such as COMP360, to lessen existing disparities, if approved,\u201d said Steve Levine, Chief Patient Officer of Compass Pathways. \u201cWe are thrilled to join forces with a leading integrated community health center, such as HealthPort, to further refine our understanding of how COMP360 psilocybin treatment could be delivered to patients in the future and, together, advance equitable access to mental healthcare.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
