'We are honored to participate in this forum as a featured panel presenter. Our partnership with the Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health reflects our belief in the importance of improving awareness of maternal mental health disorders – which impact up to 1 in 5 expecting and postpartum mothers in the United States – and in ensuring screening, diagnosis and treatment is standardized across the health delivery system,' said Greg Mayes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Reunion Neuroscience. 'The MMH FORUM provides a much-needed venue for policymakers, payors and provider leaders to discuss solutions for closing the gaps in maternal mental health care, and we look forward to presenting on RE104 and our ongoing RECONNECT Phase 2 trial, as we work to deliver a potentially new approach to treating postpartum depression, which may offer mothers safe, fast-acting and effective relief.'
The RECONNECT Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT06342310), a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active dose-controlled clinical trial is evaluating the safety and efficacy of a single subcutaneous dose of RE104 in adult female patients with moderate-to-severe PPD.

About RE104
The Company's lead product candidate, RE104, is a proprietary, potential best-in-class, patented prodrug of 4-OH-DiPT. Reunion designed RE104 to deliver a short duration psychedelic experience compared to longer duration psychedelics like psilocybin. In a Phase 1 clinical trial, RE104 produced a psychedelic state similar in intensity and quality to psilocybin, but lasting only about half the time (3-4 hours), while demonstrating a similar, favorable safety profile. RE104 is currently being evaluated in the RECONNECT Phase 2 ( NCT06342310) clinical trial, a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active dose-controlled clinical trial in moderate-to-severe postpartum depression (PPD) patients. Reunion plans to initiate the REKINDLE Phase 2 clinical trial, a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, dose-controlled trial in adjustment disorder (AjD) in cancer and other medical illnesses.
