Title: New Exploratory Alzheimer’s Drug ANAVEX 2-73: Assessment of Safety and Cognitive Performance in a Phase 2a Study in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s Patients
Date/Time: Saturday, November 7, 2015
9:45 a.m. Central European Time (3:45 a.m. Eastern Time)
Location: Gran Hotel Princesa Sofia, Barcelona, Spain
The multicenter Phase 2a clinical trial of ANAVEX 2-73 consists of two parts and a total of 32 mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s patients. PART A is a simple randomized, open-label, two-period, cross-over, adaptive trial lasting up to 36 days for each patient. PART B is an open-label extension for an additional 52 weeks.
The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose of ANAVEX 2-73. Secondary trial objectives include exploratory cognitive efficacy using mini-mental state examination score (MMSE), dose response, bioavailability, Cogstate and electroencephalographic (EEG) activity, including event-related potentials (EEG/ERP), as well as the relationship of ANAVEX 2-73 as an add-on therapy to donepezil (Aricept®).
Additional information regarding the ongoing Phase 2a clinical trial is available from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) clinical trials database at www.clinicaltrials.gov.
About ANAVEX 2-73
ANAVEX 2-73 is the investigational drug in the Phase 2a trial and is the Company’s lead investigational oral treatment for Alzheimer’s. It targets sigma-1 and muscarinic receptors, which is believed through upstream action to reduce protein misfolding, beta amyloid, tau and inflammation. Preclinical data indicates that ANAVEX 2-73 has the potential to prevent, halt and/or reverse the course of Alzheimer’s disease.
