- CervoMed will present 12-week plasma biomarker results for neflamapimod in nonfluent variant primary progressive aphasia at the ISFTD Annual Meeting in October 2026. - The late-breaking oral presentation will report neurofilament light chain and glial fibrillary acidic protein data from at least 22 of the trial's 25 enrolled participants. - The Phase 2a trial, conducted at academic medical centers in the U.S. and U.K., was designed to assess safety, pharmacokinetics, and clinical effects of the oral p38 MAP kinase inhibitor. - nfvPPA, the frontotemporal dementia subtype most associated with tau pathology, affects an estimated 10,000-15,000 people in the U.S. and 15,000-20,000 in the E.U., with no approved treatments.
• Q32 Bio's bempikibart showed promise in Phase IIa trial for alopecia areata (AA), achieving a 16% mean reduction in SALT score at week 24 compared to placebo. • However, bempikibart failed its Phase IIa trial for atopic dermatitis (AD), with placebo showing slightly better improvement in EASI scores, leading to investor selloff. • BioAge Labs halted its Phase II STRIDES trial of azelaprag due to liver transaminitis, causing stock downgrade and concerns about the drug's safety profile at higher doses. • Candel Therapeutics and uniQure saw stock surges following positive trial results and FDA agreement, respectively, while CervoMed and Chimerix also experienced significant stock movements.
- CervoMed's RewinD-LB Phase 2b trial of neflamapimod in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) did not meet its primary or secondary endpoints. - Initial analysis suggests that target plasma drug concentrations were not achieved during the double-blind phase, impacting trial results. - The company is analyzing clinical and pharmacokinetic data and will provide an update after the open-label extension data becomes available in late Q2 2025. - Despite the setback, neflamapimod demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile, with no new safety signals identified.
- The FDA has granted orphan drug designation to CervoMed's neflamapimod for frontotemporal dementia, a rare neurodegenerative disease. - CervoMed's stock price increased by 14.6% following the announcement, reflecting investor confidence in the drug's potential. - Neflamapimod, an oral p38MAP kinase alpha inhibitor, is also being studied for early-stage dementia with Lewy bodies, with Phase III trials planned. - Orphan drug designation provides CervoMed with financial incentives, including tax credits and market exclusivity, to support neflamapimod's development.
• CervoMed and Cognition Therapeutics are both advancing novel therapies for dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) in Phase II clinical trials, addressing a significant unmet need. • DLB affects an estimated 1.4 million people in the U.S., ranking as the second most common dementia after Alzheimer's disease. • These trials represent crucial steps in developing targeted treatments for DLB, a condition for which no drugs have been specifically approved.
• CervoMed received the Prix Galien USA 2024 Best Startup award for its work on developing a treatment for Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). • The award recognizes CervoMed's progress with neflamapimod, currently in a Phase 2b trial (RewinD-LB) for early-stage DLB, with topline results expected in December 2024. • DLB affects over 1.4 million people in the U.S. and EU and has no approved treatments, highlighting the significant unmet medical need CervoMed is addressing. • Neflamapimod, an oral p38MAP kinase alpha inhibitor, has shown promise in improving dementia severity and functional mobility in earlier trials.
• CervoMed's neflamapimod demonstrated a significant reduction in plasma GFAP levels, a key biomarker of neurodegenerative activity in DLB patients, in a Phase 2a trial. • The reduction in GFAP levels correlated with improved clinical outcomes, suggesting neflamapimod's therapeutic effect is mediated through the basal forebrain cholinergic system. • The RewinD-LB Phase 2b trial enrolled a DLB patient population without tau pathology, potentially increasing the study's statistical power to detect treatment effects. • Topline results from the RewinD-LB Phase 2b clinical trial of neflamapimod in DLB patients are expected in December, with high statistical power anticipated.
• CervoMed's neflamapimod demonstrates potential in treating Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) by reducing neurodegenerative activity in the basal forebrain cholinergic system. • Phase 2a trial data indicates that neflamapimod significantly lowers plasma GFAP levels, a key biomarker, correlating with improved clinical outcomes in DLB patients. • The RewinD-LB Phase 2b study enrolled a DLB patient population optimized to exhibit neflamapimod's treatment effect, with topline data expected in December. • By focusing on patients without tau pathology, the RewinD-LB trial aims for enhanced statistical power to detect clinically meaningful differences between neflamapimod and placebo.
• CervoMed's neflamapimod demonstrated a significant reduction in plasma GFAP levels (p=0.015 vs placebo) in Phase 2a trials, suggesting reduced neurodegenerative activity in DLB. • The ongoing RewinD-LB Phase 2b study successfully enrolled DLB patients without tau pathology, optimizing the potential treatment effect of neflamapimod. • With 80 patients per arm, the RewinD-LB Phase 2b study boasts nearly 100% statistical power for its primary endpoint, with topline results expected in December. • Neflamapimod could become a first-in-class therapy for the 1.4 million DLB patients in the U.S. and EU, addressing a significant unmet medical need.
• CervoMed's neflamapimod demonstrated a significant reduction in plasma GFAP levels, a key biomarker of neurodegenerative activity in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). • The reduction in GFAP levels correlated with improved clinical outcomes, suggesting neflamapimod's potential to modify disease progression in DLB patients. • The RewinD-LB Phase 2b trial enrolled a DLB patient population optimized for treatment effect by excluding those with tau pathology, enhancing the study's statistical power. • Topline results from the RewinD-LB Phase 2b clinical trial of neflamapimod are expected in December, with increased confidence due to targeted patient selection.
