Cognition Therapeutics (Nasdaq: CGTX), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, has announced it will release its Q2 2024 financial results on August 8, 2024, before market open. The company will host a conference call and live audio webcast at 8:30 a.m. ET on the same day to discuss the results and provide a business update.
Cognition Therapeutics focuses on developing treatments for neurodegenerative disorders. Their lead candidate, CT1812, is being investigated for Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and dry age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD). The company believes CT1812 and its pipeline of σ-2 receptor modulators can regulate impaired pathways in these diseases, offering a potentially distinct approach from other treatments in development.
Cognition Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CGTX) reported positive results from its Phase 2 SHINE trial for CT1812, an oral treatment for mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. The study showed:consistent cognitive improvement compared to placebo across all measures, with a ~40% mean improvement in cognitive outcomes. CT1812 demonstrated a favorable safety profile with mostly mild or moderate adverse events. Significant changes were observed in neurofilament light chain, a marker of neurodegeneration. The 100mg dose showed particularly promising results, informing future dose selection. These findings suggest that CT1812's amyloid oligomer antagonism mechanism may have potential as a monotherapy or in combination with approved drugs for Alzheimer's and related dementias.
Cognition Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CGTX) will host an investor webcast on July 29, 2024, to discuss results from the Phase 2 SHINE study of CT1812 in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. The study enrolled 153 adults, randomized to receive 100mg or 300mg of CT1812 or placebo daily for six months. Clinical findings, safety, cognitive and functional endpoints will be presented at the Alzheimer's Association's International Conference in Philadelphia. Additional presentations will cover biomarker and proteomic analyses from CSF samples, and results of a meta-analysis from the SPARC study and SHINE-A participants. The webcast will feature company management, study investigator Dr. Everard Vijverberg, and Alzheimer's expert Dr. Martin J. Sadowski.
Cognition Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CGTX) announced that their Phase 2 SHINE study results for CT1812, a drug targeting mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease, will be presented at the Alzheimer’s Association's International Conference (AAIC) in Philadelphia from July 28 to August 1, 2024.
The study's abstracts cover clinical efficacy, safety, and biomarker findings. Key abstracts include:
- Clinical efficacy results from the Phase 2 SHINE study (Abstract #89115).
- CSF phosphoproteomics biomarker analysis (Abstract #95147).
- Topline CSF biomarker outcomes (Abstract #95767).
- Exploratory CSF proteomics biomarker outcomes (Abstract #95770).
Cognition will also provide additional information about their Alzheimer’s disease program and CT1812 at booth #731 in the Exhibit Hall.
Cognition Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CGTX) released the eighth episode of its Conversations video podcast titled “Protecting the Synapse from Amyloid Toxicity in Alzheimer's Disease.” This episode explores how beta amyloid (Aβ) oligomers lead to synaptic dysfunction and cognitive decline. The podcast discusses recent research showing Aβ oligomers binding to synapses in Alzheimer's patients and how CT1812 can reverse this binding and reduce toxicity. Highlights include the use of quantitative EEG as a biomarker in the Phase 2 ‘SEQUEL’ study, which showed improvements in synaptic function and brain connectivity after four weeks of CT1812 treatment. Dr. Hamby presented proteomic analysis results demonstrating CT1812's positive effects on proteins and pathways linked to Alzheimer's. The discussion was moderated by Dr. Anthony Caggiano, featuring Dr. Mary Hamby, Dr. Everard Vijverberg, and Dr. Tara Spires-Jones.
