Enveric BiosciencesNASDAQ: ENVB
Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB) is a clinical-stage biotech developing novel non-hallucinogenic neuroplastogenic DMT analogs for depression, anxiety, and addiction via its Psybrary™ discovery platform. Lead candidate EB-003 is a first-in-class compound designed to selectively engage both 5-HT2A and 5-HT1B receptors, delivering fast-acting antidepressant and anxiolytic effects without hallucinations. EB-003 completed pre-IND dose range studies (Aug 2025) and demonstrated positive preclinical PTSD data (July 2025), with IND filing targeted Q3 2025 and clinical initiation by end of 2025.

Milestones
ind-filed
PlannedIND filing and first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial initiation targeted 2026
Why it matters: With FDA recommending direct IND submission and all preclinical/CMC milestones complete, EB-003 is positioned for IND filing in 2026. Cash position ($4.7M at Dec 2025 + ~$3M raised early 2026) may require additional fundraising to fully fund Phase 1.
Watch next: IND filing date; Phase 1 FIH design and site selection; potential partnership or financing announcement
Company milestone
CompletedActual: Jan 1, 2024
EB-003 elevated to lead development candidate from the EVM301 tryptamine series
Why it matters: EB-003 is a non-hallucinogenic tryptamine derivative designed to selectively engage both 5-HT2A and 5-HT1B receptors — the first known compound designed for this dual-receptor profile. Promotes neuroplasticity at DMT-equivalent levels without hallucinogenic effects, enabling potential home use.
Company milestone
CompletedActual: Jan 1, 2025
USPTO Notice of Allowance for EB-003 patent (composition of matter + methods of use)
Why it matters: Composition of matter patent provides the strongest possible IP protection for EB-003. Additional EVM301 series patent also allowed (December 2025), building a multi-patent IP fortress.
preclinical-data
CompletedActual: Aug 1, 2025
Pre-IND 7-day Dose Range Finding (DRF) toxicology studies completed in two species; Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) established
Why it matters: Two-species tox studies with established MTD are a key IND requirement. Completion signals EB-003 is ready for IND filing.
preclinical-data
CompletedActual: Sep 1, 2025
FDA pre-IND response received — FDA recommended proceeding directly to IND submission (skip pre-IND meeting)
Why it matters: FDA telling a sponsor to skip the pre-IND meeting and go straight to IND is a positive signal — it means the agency views the preclinical package as sufficiently complete to support human dosing without further discussion.
Company milestone
CompletedActual: Sep 2, 2025
Corporate HQ relocated to Cambridge, MA
Why it matters: Cambridge/Boston biotech cluster provides proximity to KOLs, talent, and potential pharma partners.
preclinical-data
CompletedActual: Sep 15, 2025
Positive preclinical PTSD data: EB-003 decreased context-induced freezing behavior in validated PTSD animal model
Why it matters: First preclinical evidence that EB-003's non-hallucinogenic neuroplasticity translates to functional improvement in a PTSD model. Supports the PTSD indication for the IND filing.
Company milestone
CompletedActual: Oct 1, 2025
Key CMC milestones completed: pharmaceutically compatible salt form identified; scalable synthetic route for kg-quantity manufacturing established
Why it matters: Manufacturing readiness (CMC) is often a bottleneck for novel compounds. Scalable synthesis de-risks the IND filing and Phase 1 drug supply.
