Company Description (Source)
We are a clinical-stage therapeutics company focused on inventing and developing
new medicines for patients with depression, anxiety, and other debilitating
neuropsychiatric disorders. Through our differentiated approach, we identify
clinically validated mechanisms with established efficacy and safety profiles
which had historically been limited by high first-pass metabolism, low
bioavailability, and/or side effects. We apply our proprietary Glyph™ platform
to overcome those limitations and invent innovative oral therapies. Glyph is a
lymphatic-targeting prodrug technology which is designed to bypass first-pass
metabolism and thereby enhance a drug’s oral bioavailability and reduce side
effects. This process, which we call “Glyphing,” also creates new composition of
matter intellectual property. Our experienced team of industry leaders has a
proven track record in neuropsychiatry drug discovery and development and
delivering successful business outcomes. We aim to develop novel, leading
treatment options that will make a significant impact for patients and their
families.
Our lead product candidate, GlyphAllo™ (SPT-300or Glyph Allopregnanolone), is a
novel, Glyphed oral prodrug of allopregnanolone, an endogenous molecule that has
been clinically validated in third-party trials for the treatment of postpartum
depression, or PPD, a form of major depressive disorder, or MDD, that shares
symptomatology with MDD, as a rapidly acting antidepressant with anxiolytic and
sleep-promoting effects. Additionally, an oral synthetic analog of
allopregnanolone, zuranolone, demonstrated a rapid antidepressant effect that
deepened while patients were on drug and met the primary endpoint in five of the
six trials in MDD. GlyphAllo is designed to overcome bioavailability limitations
of allopregnanolone and deliver rapid and durable efficacy in MDD. We have
demonstrated in a Phase 1 clinical trial that GlyphAllo reaches therapeutically
relevant exposures with oral dosing, and in a Phase 2a clinical trial, GlyphAllo
demonstrated initial proof-of-concept with an objective biomarker of stress in
healthy volunteers and a favorable tolerability profile. We have initiated the
Phase 2b BUOY-1 trial in patients with MDD with or without anxious distress and
anticipate topline data in the first half of 2027.
Our second product candidate, GlyphAgo™ (SPT-320or Glyph Agomelatine), is a
novel, Glyphed oral prodrug of agomelatine, a clinically validated anxiolytic
and antidepressant that is approved for the treatment of generalized anxiety
disorder, or GAD, in Australia and MDD in Australia and the European Union, or
EU. In April 2026, we reported topline data from the single-ascending dose, or
SAD, and crossover portions of our Phase 1 proof-of-concept clinical trial for
GlyphAgo. In the head-to-head crossover portion of the trial, GlyphAgo
demonstrated a 6.8-fold increase in bioavailability of agomelatine compared to
unmodified orally administered agomelatine, and showed significantly lower
(10-fold) pharmacokinetic variability compared to unmodified agomelatine. In the
SAD portion of the trial, GlyphAgo demonstrated a 9.6 to 14.5-fold increase in
dose-normalized exposure compared to agomelatine. GlyphAgo was well-tolerated
and no liver-related adverse events, or AEs, were observed. We plan to initiate
a Phase 2a proof-of-pharmacology trial designed to evaluate the potential sleep
benefit of GlyphAgo in patients with GAD and sleep disturbance, with topline
data expected in early 2028 and, in parallel, a Phase 2b trial designed to
evaluate efficacy and safety of GlyphAgo in patients with GAD, with topline data
expected by the end of 2028.
We are also advancing Glyph2BLSD™ (SPT-348 or Glyph 2-bromo-LSD), a novel,
Glyphed oral prodrug of the non-hallucinogenic LSD analog 2-bromo-LSD, in
preclinical studies for depressive disorders, including treatment-resistant
depression, or TRD, post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, and headache
disorders.
Globally, over one billion people are living with mental illness as of 2021,
comparable in prevalence to obesity or hypertension. According to the World
Health Organization, as of 2021, depression affects approximately 332 million
people worldwide and anxiety affects approximately 359 million people worldwide,
and there is a significant need for novel treatment options. Currently approved
drugs for MDD and GAD have significant limitations, including modest efficacy,
slow onset of action, and unfavorable side effects. Advancement of novel
therapies has been limited by a lack of understanding of disease
pathophysiology, poor drug-like properties, and challenges in clinical trial
design and execution leading to high clinical development failure rates.
