1. Patent Grant Details
Clearmind Medicine received U.S. Patent No. 12,357,590, titled "BINGE BEHAVIOR REGULATORS," from the USPTO on June 29, 2026. The patent specifically protects MEAI (5-methoxy-2-aminoindane) and related 2-aminoindan compounds designed to regulate excessive drinking, eating, and other compulsive behaviors.
2. Intellectual Property Portfolio
This new grant builds on the company’s earlier U.S. Patent No. 12,350,242 and brings Clearmind’s portfolio to 19 patent families with 32 granted patents globally. Management highlights this as one of the sector’s most comprehensive patent collections for neuroplastogen-based therapeutics.
3. Therapeutic Focus
Clearmind’s R&D centers on non-hallucinogenic, second-generation neuroplastogen-derived molecules addressing under-treated conditions such as alcohol use disorder and binge-related compulsive disorders. The MEAI-based regulators aim to offer safer alternatives to current treatments by modulating neuroplasticity without psychedelic effects.
4. Strategic Implications
By strengthening IP barriers around its lead compounds, Clearmind enhances its competitive positioning ahead of clinical trials and potential partnerships. The company plans to pursue additional patents and opportunistic IP acquisitions to support future regulatory filings and commercialization strategies.
