Dr. Randi Hagerman has already said that she thinks 2-73 will be effective in Fragile X. She said that after running a Rett trial. See her words below.

This is a relatively unique medication that can actually improve the calcium dis-regulation, the mitochondrial function, the oxidative stress and the neural connections. These problems can be seen in variety of other neural developmental disorders and also neurodegenerative disorders.

They’ve carried out studies in Alzheimer’s and in Parkinson’s Disease looking at cognition in Parkinson’s disease. It improved cognition in both Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.

I do a lot of research also in Fragile X syndrome and this medication can improve the Fragile X symptoms in the mouse model of Fragile X so I’m very excited about this medication causing improvements not just in Rett Syndrome but in other neuro-developmental disorders and neurodegenerative disorders.

This medication can be a boon. I think in general for aging and certainly for aging syndromes like Parkinson’s Disease and Alzheimer’s and I can’t wait to start it on other neuro-developmental disorders like Fragile X Syndrome.

I am very excited about this medication and also as I age I would definitely like to take Anavex myself.

I’m excited that this is a break through medication and for not just Rett Syndrome but other disorders of aging and also neuro-degeneration.
