Reversing Synapse Loss Starts Today
For those with neurodegenerative diseases
this could be a game changer.
SPINOGENIX is pioneering first-in-class therapeutics that restore synapses to improve the lives of patients worldwide.
Unique Approaches for Conditions Involving the Loss or Dysfunction of Synapses
Patent-protected compound
Spinogenix has designed small molecules to help restore the brain connections (synapses) in neurodegenerative, neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, Fragile X syndrome and many others.
Reverse of the synaptic degeneration process
Spinogenix has demonstrated SPG302 as an innovative treatment for regenerating synapses to reverse declines in cognitive and motor function, which is fundamentally different from other therapeutics that aim to slow degeneration.
Once-a-day tablet
Spinogenix has developed SPG302 as a once-a-day tablet, which is significantly different from recently approved antibody therapies for Alzheimer’s disease that require IV infusion by a healthcare professional.
Regenerative Platform Approach
Multiple NIH and DOD grants have been awarded to support our unique treatment for Alzheimer’s and ALS patients. This approach leverages our TAGS™ technology to trigger the formation of new synaptic connections, in effect regenerating synapses that have been lost.
Current treatments leave a critical gap in effective and patient-friendly solutions
Our unique approaches aim to have a transformative impact on patient outcomes while avoiding burdens imposed by many current therapies for conditions involving synapse loss.
SPG302 Clinical Trials in ALS, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Schizophrenia
SPG302 is the first synaptic regenerative therapy to be tested in ALS, and Spinogenix aims to make it the first such therapy in Alzheimer’s and schizophrenia.
Spinogenix has completed its first-in-human Phase 1 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of SPG302 in healthy volunteers, and a
Phase 2A study in ALS participants (NCT05882695), with ongoing open label extension and FDA IND cleared to expand to US. Phase 2 trials in Alzheimer’s Disease (NCT06427668) and Schizophrenia (NCT06442462) are ongoing in Australia and US/Australia respectively.
The U.S. FDA has granted SPG302 Orphan Drug Designation in ALS.
Completed Phase 2 Clinical Trial in Fragile X Syndrome
SPG601 is a novel BK channel positive modulator re-positioned to correct a specific synaptic dysfunction in Fragile X Syndrome (FXS), the leading inherited form of intellectual disability and known cause of autism. Currently, there are no FDA-approved treatments for FXS.
Excellent safety and tolerability established in prior clinical development involving over 240 subjects. Spinogenix completed a Phase 2a clinical trial investigating SPG601 in FXS patients at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.
The U.S. FDA has granted SPG601 Orphan Drug Designation in FXS and awarded fast track designation in FXS.
To my knowledge, this is the first clinical trial in ALS focused on regenerating synapses with a small molecule. It has the potential to be used in combination with many other treatments approved and in development.
