 Mind Cure is accelerating its move into the mental health technology space with proprietary platform




VANCOUVER, BC, Oct 21, 2020 – Mind Cure Health Inc. (CSE: MCUR) (“Mind Cure” or the “Corporation”) is pleased today to announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent dated October 20, 2020 (the “LOI”), which sets out basic terms and conditions for the acquisition by Mind Cure of Ephiphany360, a proprietary cloud-based digital therapeutics platform for treating mental health.

The Epiphany360 platform has been clinically validated on more than 10,000 patients over the last 20 years. Four feasibility studies are currently underway, the protocols of which have been designated ‘non-significant risk.’ The data being collected will form part of Epiphany360’s submission to the FDA for clearance as a Class II medical device.

“We are accelerating our move into digital therapeutics with the Epiphany360 platform to bring evidence-based insights in the diagnoses and treatment of patients suffering from mental health related illness,” stated Philip Tapley, Mind Cure Chairman, President, and CEO. “Technology innovation has a key role to play in modern healthcare as we look to find new and more effective ways to treat mental health. Epiphany360 will enable Mind Cure to more effectively create and evaluate products, drugs and therapies.”

Dr. Antonio Ocana, the Founder of Epiphany360, said, “We created the Epiphany360 platform to address the devastation experienced by individuals, families and society in the wake of the tragedy associated with mental health and addiction. It’s like a dream come true to work side by side with Mr. Tapley and the Mind Cure team. Together we will optimize the technology that will finally co-ordinate care between doctors, therapists and patients, ultimately, making these solutions accessible to researchers, employers and insurers who will benefit from the improved outcomes and lower healthcare costs. We feel very lucky to have Mind Cure’s scientific advisory team alongside as we move towards regulatory approval.”

The mental health crisis, made worse by COVID-19, is impacting hundreds of millions of people, lowering productivity and increasing absenteeism and disability, the global burden of which is estimated at more than $1 trillion annually. Mind Cure believes that the application of digital therapeutics can unlock immense value, both enhancing patient access and engagement, as well as making mental health treatment safer and more effective.
