Cognition Therapeutics Completes End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with FDA for Zervimesine (CT1812) in Alzheimer鈥檚 Disease

Positive Discussion on Path Forward for Registrational Program

PURCHASE, N.Y., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- , (the Company or Cognition) (NASDAQ: CGTX), a clinical stage company developing drugs that treat neurodegenerative disorders, conducted an end-of-Phase 2 meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on July 9, 2025. The objective of this meeting was to review results from the Phase 2 study of zervimesine (CT1812) and to discuss plans for a Phase 3 program that would support a new drug application (NDA) for zervimesine as a treatment for Alzheimer鈥檚 disease.

, president and CEO of Cognition, stated, 鈥淲e discussed the results from the Phase 2 鈥楽HINE鈥� Study in Alzheimer鈥檚 disease and our proposed Phase 3 plan with the FDA and believe we have a path forward for the development of zervimesine in the treatment of Alzheimer鈥檚 disease. We look forward to reviewing the FDA鈥檚 formal minutes in August to confirm our path forward.鈥澨���

About Zervimesine (CT1812)
(CT1812) is an investigational, oral, once-daily pill in development for the treatment of CNS diseases such as Alzheimer鈥檚 disease and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). While these diseases have different symptoms, both are associated with the buildup of certain proteins in the brain 鈥� A尾 and 蓱-synuclein. As these proteins bind to receptors on the surface of neurons, they can damage and ultimately destroy the neurons. This results in a progressive loss in a person鈥檚 ability to learn, recall memories, move efficiently, or communicate. These diseases progress relentlessly and ultimately result in death. Zervimesine has been shown to interrupt the toxic effects of A尾 and 蓱-synuclein, which may slow progression of disease and improve the lives of those suffering from Alzheimer鈥檚 and DLB. Zervimesine has been generally well tolerated in clinical studies to date.

The USAN Council has adopted zervimesine as the United States Adopted Name (USAN) for CT1812.

About the SHINE Study
The was a double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study that enrolled 153 adults with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer鈥檚 disease. The study met its primary endpoints of safety and tolerability. Changes in cognition (ADAS-Cog 11, cognitive composite and MMSE) and function (ADCS-ADL and ADCS-CGIC) were also measured. Participants were evenly randomized to receive either placebo or one of two doses of CT1812 (100 mg or 300 mg), which was taken orally daily for six months.

The SHINE Study was supported by two grant awards from the National Institute on Aging of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) totaling approximately $30 million. More information may be found at clinicaltrials.gov under trial ID .

About Cognition Therapeutics, Inc.听听
, is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing innovative, small molecule therapeutics targeting age-related degenerative disorders of the central nervous system. We recently completed Phase 2 studies of our lead candidate, zervimesine (CT1812) in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), mild-to-moderate Alzheimer鈥檚 disease and geographic atrophy secondary to dry AMD. The Phase 2 START study () in early Alzheimer鈥檚 disease is ongoing with $81 million in grant support from the National Institute of Aging (NIA) at the National Institutes of Health. We believe zervimesine can regulate pathways that are impaired in these diseases though its interaction with the sigma-2 receptor, a mechanism that is functionally distinct from other approaches for the treatment of degenerative diseases.
