Cognition Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CGTX) reported FDA alignment on key elements of a pivotal Phase 3 trial of zervimesine (CT1812) for the treatment of psychosis in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).
The FDA agreed that DLB psychosis could be an approvable outcome, supporting a potential registrational pathway.
The planned study will randomize DLB patients with hallucinations and delusions to 100 mg once-daily oral zervimesine or placebo for nine months while allowing stable off-label antipsychotics.
Cognition Therapeutics is working with the FDA to use the neuropsychiatric inventory (NPI) as a novel primary endpoint.
The company cited Phase 2 data in which zervimesine slowed progression of hallucinations and delusions by 89%.
Cognition Therapeutics is developing zervimesine as a potential new treatment option for neuropsychiatric symptoms in dementia with Lewy bodies.
The company continues to advance its pipeline targeting cognitive and psychiatric symptoms in neurodegenerative diseases.
