CYB004, or CYB-004, also known as deuterated dimethyltryptamine (dDMT), is a serotonergic psychedelic related to dimethyltryptamine (DMT) which is under development for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.[1][4][2][3] It is administered by inhalation or intravenous injection.[1][2]

It is a tryptamine derivative and is a deuterated analogue and form of DMT.[1][4][3] The pharmacodynamic profile of CYB004, including its interactions with serotonin receptors and its effects in animals, is similar to that of DMT.[3] As with DMT, CYB004 is a potent agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor and produces psychedelic-like effects in animals.[1][5][3] However, CYB004, due to its deuteration, is more resistant to metabolism than DMT and shows a longer elimination half-life (by 2.5- to 2.9-fold) and slower clearance (by 38 to 55%) in animals.[3] The brain to plasma ratio of CYB004 was also increased (by 30%) relative to DMT, indicating slightly greater central permeability as well.[3]

As of August 2024, CYB004 is in phase 2 clinical trials for generalized anxiety disorder.[1][4] It was also under development for the treatment of substance-related disorders and of other psychiatric disorders, but development for these indications was discontinued.[1] The drug is under development by Cybin.[1][4] The exact chemical structure of CYB004 (i.e., which hydrogen atoms are deuterated) does not yet seem to have been disclosed.[1] However, Cybin patented deuterated tryptamines, including deuterated forms of DMT like DMT-d10, in 2023.[6]
