Axonyx Inc.

http://www.axonyx.com

Axonyx Inc. is a U.S.-based biopharmaceutical company engaged in the acquisition and development of proprietary pharmaceutical compounds and new technologies useful in the diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer's disease, human memory disorders and prion-based illnesses such as Mad Cow disease. Its leading Alzheimer's disease drug candidate is Phenserine, a dual action acetylcholinesterase and beta amyloid precursor protein ((B)-APP) inhibitor, and currently in Phase IIB and Phase III clinical trials. A previously completed Phase II trial showed that Phenserine was well tolerated and effective in improving the memory of mild-to-moderate AD patients. The ongoing Phase IIB clinical study is designed to evaluate Phenserine's ability to lower the levels of the beta-amyloid precursor protein ((B)-APP) and Amyloid beta (A-(B)) in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of mild-to-moderate AD patients. The presence of toxic beta-amyloid in the brains of AD patients is considered by many experts to be a key pathological event in the causation as well as the progression of AD. A reduction of these levels may be able to slow the progression of AD.
