IRLAB reports promising efficacy data from Phase IIa-study with IRL752
The overall results of the recently completed Phase IIa study indicate that IRL752 – a candidate drug developed for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease dementia – improves symptoms associated with executive functions and dementia in Parkinson's disease. Effects on balance and fall tendency – so called axial symptoms – and apathy, were significant in patients treated with IRL752 but not in patients treated with placebo. Further, the study indicated a positive trend in results from cognitive tests, despite the short duration of the study. These symptoms currently lack satisfactory treatment.
