Anavex Encouraged by Data Showing Sigma-1 Receptor Reduces Tau Dysfunction, a Hallmark of Alzheimer's Disease
M2 - Thu May 21, 10:35AM CDT
Anavex Life Sciences Corp. ("Anavex" or the "Company" (AVXL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing drug candidates to treat Alzheimer's disease, other central nervous system (CNS) diseases, pain, and various types of cancer, is encouraged by recent data published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The research determines that activating the sigma-1 receptor with agonists can potentially reduce the devastating impact of tau dysfunction. Abnormal tau phosphorylation is a common characteristic in multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Alzheimer's is the most widely recognized neurodegenerative disease associated with the aggregation of tau protein in the brain, with others including progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and frontotemporal dementia. It has been previously reported that ANAVEX 2-73, targeting the sigma-1 receptor in a dose-dependent study, blocked tau and amyloid-beta ("amyloid" proteins as well as memory deficits in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. This data was published in the international scientific journal Neuropsychopharmacology. A reduction in these two main hallmarks of Alzheimer's has the potential to stop, slow or reverse the disease. ANAVEX 2-73 is currently in a Phase 2a study for Alzheimer's disease, and the Company expects to report preliminary data around the Q3 2015 timeframe.
Anavex Releases Promising Full Preclinical Epilepsy Data at Antiepileptic Drug Trials XIII Conference

Anavex Life Sciences Corp. ("Anavex" or the "Company" (AVXL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing drug candidates to treat Alzheimer's disease, other central nervous system (CNS) diseases, pain and various types of cancer, revealed full preclinical anti-seizure data for its lead drug candidate, ANAVEX 2-73, in a presentation on Friday, May 15, 2015 at the Antiepileptic Drug Trials XIII Conference. ANAVEX 2-73 demonstrated convincing data in three well-established and according to experts highly predictive preclinical anti-seizure models with potentially more favorable side effect profile than currently marketed epilepsy drugs. The cognitive-enhancing features of ANAVEX 2-73 might be a differentiating factor since seizures cause neuro-cognitive impairments, which can be worsened by current epilepsy medications. The strong performance of ANAVEX 2-73 was also confirmed in combination with three generations of epilepsy drugs currently on the market.
