ANAVEX®2-73 (blarcamesine) is an oral small-molecule activator of the sigma-1 receptor (SIGMAR1), which data suggests is pivotal to restoring neural cell homeostasis and promoting neuroplasticity.

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a chronic, debilitating CNS disease and the second largest age-related disorder after Alzheimer’s disease.

This study demonstrates for the first-time that patients’ clinical symptoms consistently improve longitudinally during the 48-week ANAVEX2-73-PDD-EP-001 Phase 2 study under active ANAVEX®2-73 treatment in Parkinson’s disease.

The 48-week ANAVEX2-73-PDD-EP-001 (NCT04575259) Phase 2 study assessed safety, tolerability and efficacy, measuring among others, Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS)3 Parts I, II, III, REM Sleep Behavior Disorder Screening Questionnaire (RBDSQ), Clinical Global Impression – Improvement (CGI-I), as well as cognitive efficacy endpoint Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) over a 48-week period.

Preliminary analysis reveals that ANAVEX®2-73 (blarcamesine) was found to be generally safe and well tolerated; and safety findings in this study are consistent with the known safety profile of ANAVEX®2-73. In respect to efficacy, across all efficacy endpoints, patients performed better while on ANAVEX®2-73.
