EIP Pharma, Inc. (www.eippharma.com), a CNS-focused therapeutics company, today announced that the Phase 2 AscenD-LB study in patients with mild-to-moderate dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) met its primary endpoint of demonstrating an improvement in cognition as assessed by the Neuropsychological Test Battery (NTB). In the double-blind placebo-controlled study, patients receiving neflamapimod three times daily (TID) demonstrated significant improvement on the NTB compared to those who received either placebo or neflamapimod twice daily (BID); p=0.015, effect size (Cohen's d)=0.52. In addition, statistically significant improvements (p<0.05) or trends (p<0.1) were evident on multiple secondary clinical endpoints. The full results have been accepted as a late-breaking abstract and will be shared on November 7, 2020 during an oral presentation at the 13th Clinical Trials in Alzheimer's Disease (CTAD) meeting.
