final IND-enabling activities to support the planned EB-003 IND application |
| ● | Completed
IND-enabling absorption and metabolic studies with favorable findings supporting EB-003’s
potential for reduced drug-drug interactions |
| ● | Reported
preclinical qEEG results demonstrating brain penetration and activity
distinct from DMT, supporting evaluation as a potential biomarker |
| ● | Reported
in vitro mechanistic studies, supporting EB-003’s predicted non-hallucinogenic
profile |
Corporate
and Business Development Highlights:
| ● | Secured
U.S. patent allowance for next-generation, non-hallucinogenic mescaline derivatives in EVM401
Series |

psychedelic-inspired therapeutics. |
CAMBRIDGE,
Mass., November 13, 2026 – Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB) (“Enveric” or the “Company”), a biotechnology
company advancing novel neuroplastogenic small-molecule therapeutics to address psychiatric and neurological disorders, today reported
financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, and provided a comprehensive business update.
CEO
Commentary:
“Our
focus during the third quarter was advancing final IND-enabling activities for EB-003 as we prepare for the planned IND submission and
first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial of our lead non-hallucinogenic, neuroplastogenic candidate,” said Joseph Tucker, Ph.D., Chief
Executive Officer of Enveric. “The data generated during the quarter and in recent weeks strengthen the foundation for this next
stage and reinforce the opportunity to develop EB-003 as a differentiated treatment for psychiatric and neurological disorders.”
Dr.
Tucker continued: “Recently completed studies of EB-003 have provided important, complementary evidence demonstrating its differentiated
profile and potential advantages. Independent assay platforms, including GloSensor™ and BRET, have consistently supported its predicted
non-hallucinogenic profile, while our completed in vitro ADMET studies indicate favorable absorption and metabolic properties
and a reduced potential for drug-drug interactions. The qEEG study adds functional evidence of brain penetration and a pattern of brain
activity distinct from dimethyltryptamine (DMT). It also supports evaluating qEEG in human studies to connect drug exposure with brain
activity and help guide dose selection.”
“As
the FDA continues to define the regulatory framework for psychedelic-inspired therapies, we believe EB-003’s design has the potential
to offer advantages in clinical development while supporting broader patient access and potential commercial adoption,” Dr. Tucker
concluded. “By seeking to harness the therapeutic potential of neuroplasticity without requiring a hallucinogenic experience, our
approach could support a simpler outpatient treatment model. The growing body of preclinical evidence reinforces our confidence in this
opportunity as we complete the final IND-enabling activities and prepare to advance EB-003 toward first-in-human clinical development.”
THIRD
QUARTER 2026 AND RECENT BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Corporate,
Product and Business Development Highlights:
EB-003
Development:
| ● | Reported
a preclinical qEEG study demonstrating functional evidence of central nervous system penetration
and a brain activity profile distinct from the classic psychedelic DMT |
| ○ | Results
support use of qEEG as a potential pharmacodynamic biomarker in first-in-human development |
| ● | Announced
positive results from recently completed IND-enabling in vitro Absorption, Distribution,
Metabolism, Excretion and Toxicity (ADMET) studies for EB-003 |
| ● | Reported
findings from a highly sensitive GloSensor™ cAMP assay that provided additional evidence
supporting EB-003’s predicted non-hallucinogenic profile |
| ● | Supported
the release of finalized guidance from FDA for clinical investigations of psychedelic and
psychedelic-inspired therapeutics |
Intellectual
Property:
| ● | Secured
New U.S. Patent Allowance for Next-Generation, Non-Hallucinogenic Mescaline Derivatives in
EVM401 Series |
