Applying the cancer playbook to find treatment for Alzheimer’s disease
Applying the cancer playbook to find treatment for Alzheimer’s disease: see how Ariana’s KEM Artificial Intelligence platform is helping Anavex Life Sciences develop the first targeted therapy against Alzheimer’s disease.
“NEW YORK – July 25, 2018 – Anavex Life Sciences Corp. (“Anavex” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: AVXL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing differentiated therapeutics for the treatment of neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, Rett syndrome and other central nervous system (CNS) diseases, today reported results of the entire genome DNA and RNA evaluation of study participants in a 57-week Phase 2a Alzheimer’s disease study investigating ANAVEX®2-73, a selective sigma-1 receptor agonist, resulting in the analysis of 33,311 genes and 860 pathways. Additionally, direct target occupancy of ANAVEX®2-73 at the sigma-1 receptor using quantitative Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning was presented.“[Link: Anavex]
