About Anavex Life Sciences Corp.
Anavex Life Sciences Corp. (Nasdaq: AVXL) is a
publicly traded biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the
development of differentiated therapeutics for the treatment of
neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disorders including
Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Rett syndrome and other
central nervous system (CNS) diseases, pain and various types of
cancer. Anavex’s lead drug candidate, ANAVEX®2-73 (blarcamesine),
recently completed successfully a Phase 2a clinical trials for
Alzheimer’s disease and a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study in
Parkinson’s disease dementia and a Phase 2 study in adult patients
with Rett syndrome. ANAVEX®2-73 is an orally available drug
candidate that restores cellular homeostasis by targeting sigma-1
and muscarinic receptors. Preclinical studies demonstrated its
potential to halt and/or reverse the course of Alzheimer’s disease.
ANAVEX®2-73 also exhibited anticonvulsant, anti-amnesic,
neuroprotective and anti-depressant properties in animal models,
indicating its potential to treat additional CNS disorders,
including epilepsy. The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s
Research previously awarded Anavex a research grant, which fully
funded a preclinical study to develop ANAVEX®2-73 for the treatment
of Parkinson’s disease. ANAVEX®3-71, which targets sigma-1 and
muscarinic receptors, is a promising clinical stage drug candidate
demonstrating disease-modifying activity against the major
hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease in transgenic (3xTg-AD) mice,
including cognitive deficits, amyloid and tau pathologies. In
preclinical trials, ANAVEX®3-71 has shown beneficial effects on
mitochondrial dysfunction and neuroinflammation. Further
