BMB-105 is a selective serotonin 5-HT2C receptor agonist of the phenylcyclopropylmethylamine (PCPMA) family which is under development for the treatment of excessive appetite and other symptoms in Prader–Willi syndrome.[2][3] It is taken orally.

The drug is described as a highly selective biased agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2C receptor, with activation of the Gq signaling pathway but minimal β-arrestin recruitment.

BMB-105 is under development by Bright Minds Biosciences.[2][3] As of November 2025, it is in phase 1 clinical trials.[3] The drug is described as a follow-on drug to Bright Mind Bioscience's more advanced candidate BMB-101 and as a potential "best-in-class" medication.[3]

The exact chemical structure of BMB-105 does not yet appear to have been disclosed. However, it is known to be a 2-phenylcyclopropylmethylamine (PCPMA) derivative similarly to BMB-101 and to share structural commonalities with tranylcypromine.
