"Finally, Compass has an exclusive contract with Onyx Scientific, one of the few laboratories in the world that has the capacity and approval to create GMP psilocybin. The contract prevents Onyx from working with Compass’ competitors, according to multiple sources and documentation obtained by Quartz. In July 2017, Usona Institute, a nonprofit medical research organization, tried to work with Onyx to produce psilocybin in order to study its potential as a depression treatment, but was told that it could not due to Onyx’s contract with Compass. According to multiple sources familiar with the matter and documentation obtained by Quartz, Compass told Usona it would only sell its psilocybin to those doing academic research, and wouldn’t sell to anyone who was doing clinical research to get psilocybin medically approved.
