Welcome to our dedicated page for Alzamend Neuro news (Ticker: ALZN), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Alzamend Neuro stock.
Alzamend Neuro, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALZN) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing innovative treatments for neurodegenerative diseases and psychiatric disorders. With a primary focus on Alzheimer’s disease, bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), the company's mission is to bring safe and effective solutions to the over 43 million Americans suffering from these conditions.
Alzamend Neuro's current pipeline includes two promising therapeutic candidates:
- AL001: A patented ionic cocrystal technology that delivers lithium through a combination of lithium, proline, and salicylate. This advanced delivery system aims to provide the benefits of existing lithium treatments while mitigating toxicity and eliminating the need for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Recent Phase IIA studies have shown a favorable safety profile and identified a maximum tolerated dose that offers improved brain lithium levels with lower systemic exposure.
- ALZN002: A novel cell-based therapeutic vaccine that uses a mutant-peptide sensitized cell to enhance the patient's immune system’s ability to fight Alzheimer’s disease. This approach seeks to restore immune function and provide long-term benefits for patients.
Alzamend has made significant strides in clinical development, with recent achievements including the submission of an investigational new drug (IND) application to the FDA for a Phase IIA study of AL001 in MDD patients. Additionally, the company completed a Phase IIA study of AL001 in Alzheimer's patients, revealing a benign safety profile potentially qualifying for a 505(b)(2) NDA pathway for FDA approval.
Financially, Alzamend is actively working to secure funding and maintain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements. Recently, the company announced a reverse stock split to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and a major private placement agreement to raise up to $25 million for further clinical trials and operational needs.
Alzamend Neuro has partnered with the University of South Florida Research Foundation, Inc. for exclusive worldwide licenses on all its product candidates. As Alzamend continues to advance its clinical programs, the company remains focused on its mission to bring innovative, safe, and effective treatments to market, addressing the urgent needs of millions of patients.
