NervGen Pharma has appointed Dr. Randall Kaye as Chief Medical Advisor, expanding his role beyond his current positions as Board Member and Science Committee Chair since 2020. This appointment follows positive topline results in the chronic cohort of NVG-291's Phase 1b/2a trial for cervical spinal cord injury. Dr. Kaye brings extensive experience in CNS therapeutic development, regulatory strategy, and medical affairs. His most recent role was as Chief Medical Officer at Longboard Pharmaceuticals, where he contributed to CNS development programs leading to a $2.6 billion acquisition by H. Lundbeck A/S. Dr. Kaye will assist in analyzing chronic cohort data and help prepare for an upcoming FDA meeting in late 2025.

NervGen Pharma reported positive topline results from the chronic cohort of its Phase 1b/2a trial evaluating NVG-291 in spinal cord injury patients. The study achieved statistical significance in one of two co-primary endpoints, showing a threefold increase in hand muscle motor connectivity compared to placebo. The trial demonstrated improved electrical connectivity between brain and hand muscle in cervical SCI patients, with a p-value of 0.0155. Secondary endpoints showed positive trends in GRASSP scores, particularly in quantitative prehension, with 50% of NVG-291 patients showing at least 4-point improvement versus 10% in placebo. NVG-291 was generally safe and well-tolerated, with only mild/moderate injection site reactions reported. As the first pharmaceutical candidate to demonstrate improved motor recovery through increased motor evoked potential amplitude, this represents a significant advancement in SCI treatment where no approved pharmaceuticals currently exist for sustained functional recovery.

NervGen Pharma (OTCQB: NGENF) announced it will present topline results from the chronic cohort of its Phase 1b/2a study of NVG-291 at the 52nd American Spinal Injury Association Annual Scientific Meeting in June 2025. The presentation will cover data from their initial proof-of-concept, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in spinal cord injury (SCI). The study incorporated both clinical and electrophysiological assessments to maximize the probability of observing efficacy signals. Dr. Daniel Mikol, NervGen's Chief Medical Officer, will present the findings on June 3, 2025, during the Clinical Trial Updates session in Scottsdale, Arizona.
