Millions of people worldwide suffer from neurodegenerative diseases that impair memory, focus and thinking and impact their ability to go about their daily lives. By applying our novel approach, we believe the synaptic dysfunction responsible for disease symptoms and progression can be reversed before the death of nerve cells.
Our Approach
HOPE THROUGH SCIENCE
We are developing neflamapimod – an investigational, orally administered, small molecule brain penetrant that inhibits the protein kinase p38 alpha. Extensive research has shown that p38 alpha is a key driver of synaptic dysfunction, the reversible aspect of the neurodegenerative process. The preclinical and clinical data with neflamapimod, including our ongoing Phase 2 RewinD-LB trial in patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), suggest that inhibition of p38 alpha by neflamapimod reverses the synaptic dysfunction that underlies development of symptoms and disease progression in the early stages of many neurological disorders.
