/PRNewswire/ -- AmyriAD Therapeutics B.V. ('AmyriAD'), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on cognition in central nervous system disorders, today announced the acquisition of Recognify Life Sciences, Inc. ('Recognify') and its lead clinical-stage program, RL-007 (inidascamine). The acquisition expands AmyriAD's cognition pipeline while preserving Ismidenon (AD-101) as the company's lead Alzheimer's disease program..
/美通社/ -- 专注于中枢神经系统疾病认知障碍的临床阶段生物制药公司AmyriAD Therapeutics B.V.(“AmyriAD”)今日宣布收购Recognify Life Sciences, Inc.(“Recognify”)及其领先的临床阶段项目RL-007(inidascamine)。此次收购扩大了AmyriAD在认知领域的产品管线,同时保留Ismidenon(AD-101)作为公司主要的阿尔茨海默病项目。
RL-007 is an orally administered, first-in-class pro-cognitive compound that modulates cholinergic, glutamatergic and GABA-B receptor activity, designed to restore the balance of excitatory and inhibitory signaling that underlies cognitive dysfunction across multiple CNS disorders. The compound has been studied in 500 subjects to date and has demonstrated a consistent safety and tolerability profile, with no evidence of sedation, weight gain or extrapyramidal symptoms in its most recent Phase 2b study..
RL-007 是一种口服给药的首创类促认知化合物,可调节胆碱能、谷氨酸能和 GABA-B 受体活性,旨在恢复多种中枢神经系统疾病中认知功能障碍所基础的兴奋性与抑制性信号平衡。截至目前,该化合物已在 500 名受试者中进行研究,并展现出一致的安全性和耐受性特征;在其最近的 IIb 期临床试验中,未发现镇静、体重增加或锥体外系症状的证据。
Strategic Rationale
战略理由
The acquisition strengthens AmyriAD's clinical-stage cognition pipeline while preserving Ismidenon as the company's lead Alzheimer's disease program.
此次收购增强了AmyriAD在临床阶段的认知障碍研发管线,同时保留Ismidenon作为公司领先的阿尔茨海默病项目。
RL-007 adds a differentiated pro-cognitive mechanism with clinical-stage experience in Cognitive Impairment Associated with Schizophrenia (CIAS), giving AmyriAD greater depth within cognition while creating a second development path in a large, underserved CNS indication.
RL-007 增加了一种差异化的促认知机制,并具备在精神分裂症相关认知障碍(CIAS)领域的临床阶段经验,这不仅增强了 AmyriAD 在认知领域的深度,还为其在一个庞大且未满足需求的中枢神经系统适应症中开辟了第二条开发路径。
'RL-007 fits squarely into what AmyriAD was built to do,' said Ranga Krishnan, M.D., Chair of the Board of AmyriAD. 'We are a cognition company. Our lead asset, ismidenon, targets cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease, and RL-007 adds clinical-stage depth to that same strategic focus through a differentiated mechanism and a second cognition indication that has already shown pro-cognitive signals in schizophrenia.
“RL-007 完全契合 AmyriAD 的创立使命,”AmyriAD 董事会主席 Ranga Krishnan 医学博士表示。“我们是一家专注于认知领域的公司。我们的核心资产 ismidenon 旨在靶向阿尔茨海默病相关的认知衰退,而 RL-007 则凭借其独特的作用机制以及在精神分裂症中已显示出促认知信号的第二个认知适应症,为这一战略重点增添了临床阶段的深度。”
The Phase 2b data taught us a great deal about dose, exposure and endpoint selection. We intend to apply those learnings to a reformulated product and a sharper clinical program in both CIAS and Alzheimer's disease. We are equally pleased to welcome atai, Catalio and Sudhoff as shareholders of AmyriAD – investors who know this asset well and share our conviction in it.'.
2b期数据让我们对剂量、暴露量和终点选择有了深入的了解。我们打算将这些经验应用于配方改良后的产品,并在CIAS和阿尔茨海默病领域开展更为精准的临床项目。我们同样高兴地欢迎atai、Catalio和Sudhoff成为AmyriAD的股东——这些投资者对本资产有着深刻的了解,并与我们一样对其充满信心。
'AmyriAD's singular focus on cognition and its experienced CNS team make it the right owner to take inidascamine forward. As shareholders, we look forward to participating in the program's next chapter,' said Matthew P. Pando, Ph.D., President & CEO of Recognify Life Sciences.
“AmyriAD 对认知领域的专注以及其中枢神经系统经验丰富的团队,使其成为推动 inidascamine 向前发展的合适所有者。作为股东,我们期待参与该项目的下一阶段。”Recognify Life Sciences 总裁兼首席执行官 Matthew P. Pando 博士表示。
Development Plan
发展计划
AmyriAD intends to:
AmyriAD 旨在:
Optimize RL-007 formulation and exposure
优化 RL-007 的配方与暴露条件
: A pharmacokinetic study initiated by Recognify is ongoing and will be completed by AmyriAD, with results expected in H1 2027.
由 Recognify 发起的一项药代动力学研究正在进行中,将由 AmyriAD 完成,预计结果将于 2027 年上半年公布。
Advance RL-007 in CIAS
在CIAS中推进RL-007
: CIAS represents a substantial unmet need with no approved therapies specifically targeting cognitive impairment. Cognitive impairment is estimated to affect more than 80% of the approximately 24 million people living with schizophrenia worldwide. While RL-007 did not meet statistical significance on the MCCB neurocognitive composite at week 6 in the Phase 2b study (n=242), numerical improvements were observed across several cognitive domains, including Symbol Coding, Speed of Processing and Verbal Learning, along with directionally positive effects on functional capacity as measured by VRFCAT.
CIAS 代表了巨大的未满足医疗需求,目前尚无专门针对认知障碍的获批疗法。据估计,在全球约 2400 万精神分裂症患者中,超过 80% 受到认知障碍的影响。尽管在二期 b 阶段研究(n=242)的第 6 周,RL-007 在 MCCB 神经认知综合评分上未达到统计学显著性,但在多个认知领域(包括符号编码、处理速度和言语学习)观察到了数值上的改善,并且通过 VRFCAT 测量的功能能力也显示出方向性的积极效应。
The reformulated product and refined trial design will build on these findings by focusing on the domains where the strongest signals were observed..
重新配制的产品和优化的试验设计将基于这些发现,重点关注观察到最强信号的领域。
Initiate development in disorders with cognition impairment
在伴有认知障碍的疾病中启动开发
: Leveraging AmyriAD's existing clinical infrastructure, investigator network and regulatory experience from the ismidenon program, a Phase 2 study in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease is planned for 2027/2028.
利用AmyriAD现有的临床基础设施、研究者网络以及从ismidenon项目中获得的监管经验,计划于2027/2028年开展一项针对轻度至中度阿尔茨海默病的II期临床研究。
Transaction Terms
交易条款
Under the terms of the agreement, AmyriAD acquired Recognify and the rights and assets associated with RL-007. The transaction included an equity-based consideration structure with additional consideration linked to future development milestones. AmyriAD will support the continued development of RL-007, including completion of the ongoing pharmacokinetic study, with transition support expected from members of the Recognify team..
根据协议条款,AmyriAD 收购了 Recognify 以及与 RL-007 相关的权利和资产。该交易包含基于股权的对价结构,并设有与未来开发里程碑挂钩的额外对价。AmyriAD 将支持 RL-007 的持续开发,包括完成正在进行的药代动力学研究,预计 Recognify 团队成员将提供过渡期支持。
