Cognition Therapeutics, Inc., (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CGTX#NASDAQ">CGTX</a>), a clinical-stage company developing drugs to treat neurodegenerative disorders, provided an update on a biomarker(1) analysis from the Phase 2 'SHINE' study in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. This new analysis focused on plasma samples from all participants who entered the study with lower levels of plasma p-tau217(2) . Several blood-based measures of Alzheimer's disease biology were identified that were normalized in CT1812-treated participants compared to the placebo-treated participants. These biomarker changes occurred in concert with a 95% slowing of cognitive decline as measured by ADAS-Cog11 in the same patients. These data provide further evidence that CT1812 may be preserving cognitive function and slowing disease progression by protecting key neurological system. &nbsp;

Why Is Rocket Lab USA Stock Surging Today?

Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTLA#NASDAQ">NTLA</a>), a leading clinical-stage gene editing company focused on revolutionizing medicine with CRISPR-based therapies, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation to nexiguran ziclumeran (nex-z, also known as NTLA-2001) for the treatment of hereditary transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN). Nex-z is an in vivo&nbsp;CRISPR-based investigational&nbsp;therapy designed as a single-dose treatment to inactivate the&nbsp;TTR&nbsp;gene and thereby prevent the production of TTR protein for the treatment of ATTR amyloidosis. Development and commercialization of nex-z is led by Intellia as part of a multi-target collaboration with Regeneron.
"This RMAT designation underscores the transformative potential of nex-z, our investigational in vivo CRISPR-based gene editing therapy for those living with hereditary ATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy," said Intellia President and Chief Executive Officer John Leonard, M.D. "It was granted following the FDA's review of our compelling interim Phase 1 data that indicated our one-time treatment led to rapid, deep and durable TTR reduction, which is expected to halt and potentially reverse the disease. We look forward to working closely with the FDA to bring this potential paradigm-shifting therapy to patients as quickly as possible."
The RMAT designation was established under the 21st Century Cures Act to expedite the development and review of promising therapeutic candidates, including genetic therapies, that are intended to treat, modify, reverse or cure a serious or life-threatening disease. RMAT designation includes benefits, such as early interactions with the FDA, including discussions on surrogate or intermediate endpoints that could potentially support accelerated approval and satisfy post-approval requirements, and potential priority review of a product's biologics license application (BLA).
This RMAT designation is the third special regulatory designation received by Intellia for nex-z. Nex-z was also granted Orphan Drug Designation by the U.S. FDA and European Union Orphan Drug Designation by the European Commission.
About nexiguran ziclumeran (nex-z, also known as NTLA-2001) Based on Nobel Prize-winning CRISPR/Cas9 technology, nex-z has the potential to become the first one-time treatment for transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis. Nex-z is designed to inactivate the&nbsp;TTR&nbsp;gene that encodes for the transthyretin (TTR) protein. Interim Phase 1 clinical data showed the administration of nex-z led to consistent, deep and long-lasting TTR reduction. Intellia leads development and commercialization of nex-z as part of a multi-target discovery, development and commercialization&nbsp;collaboration&nbsp;with Regeneron.

Cassava Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVA#NASDAQ">SAVA</a>, "Cassava", the "Company"))), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing a novel, investigational treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia, today announced that the topline results from the Phase 3 ReThink-ALZ study of simufilam in mild-to-moderate AD did not meet each of the pre-specified co-primary, secondary and exploratory biomarker endpoints. The co-primary endpoints were the change in cognition and function from baseline to the end of the double-blind treatment period at week 52, assessed by the ADAS-COG12 and ADCS-ADL scales, comparing simufilam to placebo. Simufilam continued to demonstrate an overall favorable safety profile. The Company will hold a webcast today at 8 AM ET.
"The results are disappointing for patients and their families who are living with this disease and physicians who have been looking for novel treatment options. We took careful measures to enroll patients with mild-to-moderate AD. Despite that, the loss of cognition in the placebo group was less pronounced than was previously reported in other placebo-controlled studies in AD. We are working to understand this better," said Rick Barry, President and Chief Executive Officer. "A result like this has implications on our second Phase 3 trial,&nbsp;ReFocus-ALZ. We have made the difficult decision to discontinue ReFocus-ALZ, given the nature of today's reported results. The complete 52-week dataset will be available from the study along with a large portion of 76-week data. We intend to report detailed analyses of both studies in the future. We will also be discontinuing the Open Label Extension study."
Mr. Barry continued, "We have a special gratitude for the patients and their families and caregivers who participated in our clinical program for AD. We are also immensely grateful to our employees, study investigators and site coordinators, as well as our other partners, for their commitment to this program. We hope the information we have gathered can ultimately be used to benefit ongoing research in AD."
The table below provides a high-level summary of the co-primary endpoints data. Topline analysis of the mild and moderate sub-groups, likewise, did not demonstrate statistical significance at week 52.
