- Anavex Life Sciences' (NASDAQ:AVXL) oral drug candidate blarcamesine (ANAVEX2-73) slowed cognitive decline in a phase 2b/3 study.
- Shares are up ~3% in Thursday premarket trading.
- The trial was conducted in ~500 participants with early symptoms of Alzheimer's, including mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia. Patients were randomized to receive blarcamesine or placebo once daily over 48 weeks.
- Results showed clinically significant differences in ADAS-Cog13 and CDR-SB, two Alzheimer's disease assessment scales, between the treatment and placebo arms.
- In addition, biomarkers of amyloid beta, a plaque found in the brains of those with Alzheimer's, indicated anti-amyloid effects of blarcamesine. Also, brain MRIs showed a significant reduction in brain volume loss in the blarcamesine-treated group.
- Anavex (AVXL) said that blarcamesine "restores cellular homeostasis by targeting sigma-1 and muscarinic receptors."
