| Drug class | Serotonin receptor agonist; Serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist; Serotonergic psychedelic; Hallucinogen |
It is a prodrug of psilocin similarly to psilocybin, and hence acts as a non-selective serotonin receptor agonist, including of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor.[3][5][2][6]
The drug is under development by Mindset Pharma and Otsuka America Pharmaceutical.[3][4][5] As of January 2024, it is in phase 2 clinical trials for major depressive disorder and is in the preclinical stage of development for anxiety disorders and other depressive disorders.[3][4][5] The chemical structure of MSP-1014 does not yet seem to have been disclosed.[3][4] However, Mindset Pharma patented psilocin derivatives and prodrugs in 2022.[7]

MSP-1014 is a novel and patent-protected prodrug of psilocin, the active metabolite of psilocybin. MSP-1014 is anticipated to exert similar efficacy to psilocybin in improving symptoms of depression. Preclinical studies comparing MSP-1014 to psilocybin suggest that the tolerability of MSP-1014 may be superior to psilocybin.
