Clairvoyant Therapeutics
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 29, 2023 / Clairvoyant Therapeutics Inc. (www.clairvoyantrx.com), the clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing psilocybin therapy for alcohol use disorder (AUD), today announced that it has randomized more than 50 per cent of the expected 128 subjects for its 24-week Phase 2b clinical trial of synthetic psilocybin (25mg oral capsule). The double-blind, randomized controlled trial was initiated in October 2022 and is designed to assess multiple efficacy and safety endpoints.
"We are pleased that the pace of subject enrollment is at the upper end of our expectations. We are on track for an interim data read out in February 2024 and a top line read out in Q2 2024," stated Damian Kettlewell, CEO, Clairvoyant.
"Our goal is to be the first company in the world to obtain regulatory approval for the clinical use of psilocybin in AUD. The medical benefits of psychedelic compounds like psilocybin have been supressed for decades. We are pleased that regulatory authorities are now engaged in evidence-based approaches to review these potentially remarkable compounds."
Clairvoyant has been motivated to explore psilocybin therapy for AUD as a result of pioneering academic work by researchers in the U.S. Positive clinical results will support Clairvoyant's goal to help millions of AUD patients around the world.
Alcohol is the leading risk factor for overall burden of disease among men and a significant risk factor among women (source: WHO Global Status Report on Alcohol and Health 2014). A regional study recently reported that fewer than 5 per cent of patients diagnosed with moderate to severe alcohol use disorder receive recommended medications (source: BC Centre for Substance Use, 2023).

TIS Helps Treasury Teams Navigate the Ongoing ISO 20022 Transition After the 2025 Banking Deadline10.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
BERLIN, DE / ACCESS Newswire / December 10, 2025 / Treasury Intelligence Solutions (TIS), a leading cloud-based platform for payments and cash management, is future-proofing organizations with specialized translation services in the wake of the recent November 2025 ISO 20022 deadline. A major turning point for the financial industry, SWIFT now requires banks to move their cross-border payment messages to ISO 20022. As a result, treasury teams are already seeing differences in how their banks send and receive payment information. Adapting to these changes will require a strategic approach to modernizing systems and processes. ISO 20022 replaces a patchwork of older standards with a single approach to structuring payment data. The new universal standard is designed to reduce confusion across markets, improve data quality, and support the level of transparency that regulators around the globe now expect. Moving to ISO 20022 payments takes time and strategic vision, especially when legacy
Majority of Australian Parents (65%) and U.S. Parents 58% Support Social Media Ban for Under 16s, but Kids Say It Risks Cutting Them Off from Key Connections9.12.2025 15:00:00 CET | Press release
New survey of 4,000 parents and children in the U.S. and Australia reveals sharp generational divides in support, fears, mental health expectations, and belief in government enforcement. WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESS Newswire / December 9, 2025 / The Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI) released new research today examining how parents and children in the United States and Australia view social media bans for anyone under 16. The findings reveal strong parental support for such bans, in contrast with widespread concern from children who fear losing friendships and support systems that exist primarily online. The research arrives as Australia implements a national under 16 social media ban, placing global attention on how the policy will affect youth and their families. FOSI's study surveyed 4,000 parents and children ages 10 to 17 to understand how both groups feel about restrictions, enforcement, and the broader impact of social media on daily life.
