Original Announcement: Glypromate trial recruits 100th patient
Neuren Pharmaceuticals announced that its Phase III clinical trial with lead compound Glypromate, in development to reduce cognitive impairment following cardiac surgery, has recruited its 100th patient. This is in line with the trial's objective of completing enrolment by December 2008, as almost all sites are now recruiting. The Data Safety Monitoring Committee will review the patient data of these 100 patients and again at 300 patients in mid-2008.

By the end 1Q CY08, we expect Neuren to be running four major efficacy trials; namely three Phase 2 trials for NNZ-2566 in mild/moderate and severe TBI and Motiva� in post stroke abulia/ depression coupled with the current Phase 3 trial for Glypromate� in CABG. All indications potentially provide Neuren with first to market, billion dollar opportunities. With a current market cap of $40.2m, Neuren remains a solid value proposition in the sector, where FDA INDs for mid to late stage clinical trials continues to remain a vexing proposition. We maintain our Speculative Buy recommendation and price target of $1.30, though expect to make changes to our valuation model once the acquisition has closed, which we expect during the current Q.
