Compass Pathways (CMPS) was on investors’ radar on Tuesday, after the company said it expects to complete its New Drug Application for its depression treatment within two weeks, potentially paving the way for a commercial launch in the first half of 2027.
CMPS shares were up more than 10% in pre-market trading.
COMP360 is a synthetic psilocybin-based treatment being developed for treatment-resistant depression (TRD), a form of depression in which a patient’s condition does not improve after at least two antidepressant medications.

CEO Kabir Nath said the company is preparing for a potential launch in the first half of 2027. “With the imminent completion of our NDA submission and the potential for a quick approval, we are executing with urgency and discipline to launch this much-needed treatment in the first half of 2027.”
Compass said it has already picked its commercial team for the drug while the selection of a sales team is currently underway.
COMP360 achieved its primary goals in two Phase 3 trials involving more than 1,000 patients, showing significant improvements in depression symptoms after six weeks. In September, 52-week follow-up data showed additional benefits from repeat treatment, with improvements lasting up to one year.

The drugmaker reported a diluted net loss of $0.31 per share in the third quarter (Q3), narrowing from $1.44 a year earlier and beating analysts’ expectations of a $0.41 per share loss, according to Fiscal.ai.
