“We are very impressed with the rational and efficient clinical trial path Anavex has embarked upon by adopting population pharmacokinetics (PK) and adaptive trial design in its current ANAVEX 2-73 Phase 2a study in Alzheimer’s disease,” said Mohammad Afshar, CEO of Ariana Pharma. “Ariana has the expertise to fully support Anavex’s precision medicine approach to develop more effective treatments for devastating diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Rett syndrome.”

Ariana specializes in clinical patient stratification using KEM®, a proprietary decision support technology for rapid and systematic analysis of multi-parametric/multi-objective data. Ariana’s technology uncovers signals and complex relationships overlooked by conventional statistical analysis that minimizes the risk of data over-fitting. This approach increases clinical trial success and reduces drug development risks by systematically identifying patient subgroups most benefiting from a drug and endpoints that best capture its effect. Ariana is one of the first companies to implement the new FDA draft enrichment guidelines for patient stratification and trial enrichment. Ariana’s expertise spans multiple medical indications and therapeutic areas, including immunological and neurological diseases and cancer.
