Silo Pharma Secures Exclusive Global License for Alzheimer's Therapeutic
July 16 2024 - 6:30AM
Silo Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: SILO) (“Silo” or the “Company”), a
developmental stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing
novel formulations and drug delivery systems for traditional
therapeutics and psychedelic treatments, today announced that it
has entered into an exclusive global license agreement to further
develop, manufacture, and commercialize its Alzheimer’s drug
SPC-14. Silo intends to utilize the FDA’s streamlined 505(b)(2)
pathway for SPC-14, which would shorten clinical timelines and
reduce drug development costs.
“In our view, our exclusive license for SPC-14 gives us the
potential to meet a large unmet medical need. If approved, we
believe SPC-14 could bring hope and relief for many families and
patients. Early pre-clinical studies have shown stress reduction
and cognitive improvement,” said Silo CEO Eric Weisblum.
Silo Pharma recently announced a similar exclusive license
agreement for its lead drug candidate, SPC-15, an intranasal
treatment for stress-induced affective disorders and PTSD.
The global Alzheimer’s disease therapeutics market size is
forecasted to exceed $30.8 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of 18.8%
from 2024 to 2033 1 . Rising prevalence of the disease in
the expanding elderly population and advancements in neurological
research are expected to drive market growth.
About SPC-14
SPC-14 is a novel therapeutic that targets glutamate
receptor NDMAR and serotonin type 4 receptor 5HT4 to treat
cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms in Alzheimer’s disease. In
the latest small animal preclinical study, SPC-14 was effective
against LH (luteinizing hormone) stress in attenuating learned
helplessness, perseverative behavior, and hyponeophagia, a measure
of anxiety.
