Awakn Life Sciences Corp. (AWKN) has signed a licensing partnership agreement with Revitalist Lifestyle and Wellness (CALM).

Revitalist is one of the largest publicly-listed, ketamine-focused clinic operations in the United States.

The agreement empowers Revitalist to treat clients with Awakn’s proprietary ketamine-assisted therapy for the treatment of AUD.

Awakn’s proprietary treatment was developed and validated in a Phase II a/b trial. The results of the trial were published in January 2022 in the American Journal of Psychiatry.

The trial delivered 86 per cent abstinence over the six-month post-treatment versus 2 per cent pre-trial. The current standard of care has an approximate 25 per cent abstinence rate over the same timeframe.

Under the terms of the licence agreement, Awakn will provide access to its proprietary therapeutics and training to Revitalist practitioners. At the same time, Revitalist will pay Awakn an annual fee and a revenue share per treatment.

Awakn aims to improve performance of this industry by providing clinic operators with access to an efficient and effective treatment option under licence.

“Our partnership agreement with Revitalist adds an additional revenue stream for Awakn in our licensing partnerships’ business, and importantly brings us into a new, and key territory – the United States,” stated Anthony Tennyson, Awakn CEO.

“Now, for the first time in the United States, these individuals are able to access this promising treatment to help them remain in remission of their addictive behaviours,” noted Kathryn Walker, Revitalist CEO.

Awakn Life Sciences Corp. is a revenue-generating biotechnology company researching, developing, and commercializing therapeutics to treat substance and behavioural addictions.

Revitalist Lifestyle and Wellness Ltd. was up 7.14 per cent, trading at C$0.075 at 12:02 ET.
