AlzeCure publishes its interim report for January – June 2021
Stockholm, Sweden, August 25, 2021. AlzeCure Pharma AB (publ) (FN STO: ALZCUR) today announced that its interim report for the period January – June 2021 is now available on the company’s website: www.alzecurepharma.se/en/section/investors/financial-reports/
“The AlzeCure team continues to make good progress according to plan, in high-profile areas that are becoming increasingly relevant, such as the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of a new drug for Alzheimer’s disease, the first in 18 years, which is expected to boost interest in the Alzheimer’s field. During the second quarter, we communicated positive data from our Phase Ib clinical trial of ACD440 for neuropathic pain and are now preparing for a Phase II trial and a pre-IND meeting with the FDA. We also focused on running the Phase I clinical trial for ACD856 in Alzheimer’s disease and on further developing compounds in our preclinical pain project, TrkA-NAM, with the aim of choosing a drug candidate for the project in the second half of 2021. Thus we have once again closed the books on yet another positive and very active quarter at AlzeCure.”
Martin Jönsson, CEO

About AlzeCure Pharma AB (publ)
AlzeCure® is a Swedish pharmaceutical company that develops new innovative drug therapies for the treatment of severe diseases and conditions that affect the central nervous system, such as Alzheimer’s disease and pain – indications for which currently available treatment is very limited. The company is listed on Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market and is developing several parallel drug candidates based on three research platforms: NeuroRestore®, Alzstatin® and Painless.
NeuroRestore består av två symptomlindrande läkemedelskandidater där den unika verkningsmekanismen möjliggör flera indikationer – Alzheimers sjukdom, men även kognitiva störningar vid traumatisk hjärnskada, sömnapné och Parkinsons sjukdom. Plattformen Alzstatin fokuserar på att utveckla sjukdomsmodifierande och preventiva läkemedelskandidater för tidig behandling av Alzheimers sjukdom och består av två kandidater. Painless är bolagets forskningsplattform inom smärtområdet och innehåller två projekt: ACD440 som är en läkemedelskandidat i klinisk fas inriktad på neuropatisk smärta, samt TrkA-NAM som är inriktad på svåra smärttillstånd såsom osteoartrit. AlzeCure siktar på att driva de egna projekten genom preklinisk forskning och utveckling in i tidig klinisk fas och arbetar kontinuerligt med affärsutveckling för att hitta lämpliga utlicensieringslösningar med andra läkemedelsbolag.
