(\"Magdalena\"), a joint venture formed by Jaguar and Filament Health Corp. (OTCQB:FLHLF)(Cboe CA:FH)(FSE:7QS) (\"Filament\" or \"Filament Health\"), successfully completed an import of six kilograms of coca leaf from Peru to Filament's Metro Vancouver research and development facility. This is the second import of coca leaf into Canada that Magdalena has completed. It was authorized by the Peruvian Health Authority, Dirección General de Medicamentos Insumos y Drogas (DIGEMID), and acquired from the Empresa Nacional de la Coca (ENACO), the only company in Peru authorized to distribute coca leaf.\n\nImage of coca leaves. © Steven King, Ph.D.\n\"We are pleased to partner with Filament Health and Magdalena to facilitate this second import of coca leaf,\" said Silveria Dongo Gonzales, Technical Director of ENACO. \"We appreciate Filament and Magdalena's diligent efforts in maintaining a productive relationship with ENACO.\"\n\"We are delighted to be continuing our collaboration and partnership with ENACO and the people who hold the coca leaf sacred as part of their daily lives in the Andean region of Peru,\" said Steven King, Ph.D., Jaguar's Chief Sustainable Supply and Ethnobotanical Research Officer and an Advisor to Magdalena. \"We believe that the development of Botanical Drugs from ‘whole extract' coca leaf can provide therapeutic benefit, and that the development process will benefit the people of Peru, who have been sustainably producing coca leaves for several thousand years.\"\nDr. King will be presenting more details about the potential promise of whole extract coca leaf Botanical Drugs at The McKenna Academy of Natural Philosophy's groundbreaking Wisdom of the Leaf Coca Summit, which takes place February 3-7, 2025 in Peru.\nMagdalena's mission is to develop novel, safe, efficacious next-generation psychoactive FDA-approved plant-based drugs under FDA Botanical Guidance for mental health indications including schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, and cognitive deficits in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The coca leaf imported from Peru will be used for the development of a Botanical Drug candidate for the treatment of potentially ADHD or other neuropsychiatric indications.\n\"By importing this significant volume of raw material, we are able to begin the important work of exploring coca leaf's therapeutic potential for the treatment of ADHD,\" said Benjamin Lightburn, Chief Executive Officer of Filament Health and Magdalena Board Member. \"This import was a significant regulatory achievement by our team and we are grateful to the Peruvian government for its ongoing partnership.\"\n\"We look forward to Magdalena continuing its pioneering research into the potential medicinal benefits of coca,\" said Dr. King. \"Many commonly used neuropsychiatric prescription medications have side effects such as personality changes or sedation. With centuries of use by Indigenous healers and traditional psychiatrists, plant-derived medicines offer potential new mechanisms of action for treating mental disorders while being potentially safer than the small molecule drugs that may have ‘off target' effects.\"\n\"Plant-based drugs offer new opportunities and new mechanisms of action, as highlighted in an article in The New York Times on December 16, 2024 titled \"Seeking Relief From Brain Injury, Some Veterans Turn to Psychedelics,\" which focuses on ibogaine, an alkaloid derived from the bark of the iboga tree,\" said Dr. Karen Brunke, Jaguar's EVP of Corporate and Business Development and Acting CEO of Magdalena.\nABOUT MAGDALENA BIOSCIENCES\nJaguar Health, Inc. and Filament Health Corp. formed Magdalena Biosciences, Inc. as a joint venture in 2023 to develop novel, natural prescription medicines derived from plants for mental health indications including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression and anxiety in adults. Boulder, Colorado-based One Small Planet, founded by Will Peterffy, has committed to funding of US$1,000,000. The goal of the collaboration is to extend the botanical drug development capabilities of Jaguar and Filament in order to develop pharmaceutical-grade, standardized drug candidates for mental health disorders.\nABOUT FILAMENT HEALTH (OTCQB:FLHLF) (CBOE:FH) (FSE:7QS)\nFilament Health is a clinical-stage natural psychedelic drug development company.
