Emerging neurobiological targets in psychiatric treatment.
(PubMed, Eur Neuropsychopharmacol)
- "Recent evidence suggests that sodium channel modulators, such as evenamide, may offer therapeutic benefits for treatment-resistant schizophrenia by stabilizing glutamatergic neurotransmission...Additionally, Sigma-1 receptor agonists, including Blarcamesine and Pridopidine, have shown neuroprotective and cognitive-enhancing properties, making them attractive candidates for psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Orexin receptor antagonists, such as suvorexant and seltorexant, have potential in mood disorders and substance dependence, highlighting the broader therapeutic applications of targeting the orexinergic system...The identification of biomarkers for patient stratification will be critical in the hitherto elusive goal of developing precision medicine approaches. Targeted pharmacological interventions offer a path toward more effective, well-tolerated, and potentially individualized treatment options for patients with severe mental illness."

STUDY OF BLARCAMESINE IN A NEW PARKINSON'S MODEL OF COMBINED ΑLPHA-SYNUCLEIN PATHOLOGY AND NORADRENERGIC DYSFUNCTION
(ADPD 2026)
- "The motor deficit caused by alpha-synuclein pathology combined with noradrenergic dysfunction was significantly attenuated after 6 weeks of blarcamesine treatment. This was accompanied by a restoration of DA fibers in the most denervated striatal regions, without any significant change in number of nigral DA neurons or pSyn inclusions. We conclude that blarcamesine has restorative effects on nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons even in the presence of alpha-synuclein aggregates formation."

Anavex Life Sciences Receives FDA Feedback on Alzheimer’s Disease Program
(The Manila Times)
- "During the Type C meeting, the FDA shared their interest and collaborative approach to Anavex’ development plans. The Company provided information related to the scientific rationale and profile of blarcamesine as an oral administration being convenient to dispense and the absence of significant safety concerns in clinical trials of blarcamesine conducted so far extending to the lack of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA)...In order to move forward, existing data from the Phase IIb/III ANAVEX2-73-AD-004 program requested by the Agency will be submitted."

- "Thus, the specificity of blarcamesine to this genotype underscores the importance of understanding clear MoA and potential for further improved personalized medicine in AD treatment, as therapies targeting individual molecular profiles could achieve more substantial and sustained benefits. While Precision Medicine holds great promise for improving the treatment paradigm of AD by offering more personalized, likely more effective therapies, it also introduces challenges related to potential cost, data privacy, ethical concerns, and inequities in access. Addressing these issues is crucial to ensure that the benefits of Precision Medicine can be realized for all patients."

- "Blarcamesine significantly reduced clinical decline showing meaningful benefit for early Alzheimer's disease patients. Blarcamesine exhibited a favorable safety profile with no treatment-related deaths and demonstrated no associated neuroimaging adverse events with continued treatment over 4 years. Altogether, these results indicate that blarcamesine may be an effective, safe, and novel scalable oral treatment for early AD."

Blarcamesine (ANAVEX®2–73) Attenuates Spasms and Hypsarrhythmia in a Rat Model of Infantile Epilepsy Spasms Syndrome
(AES 2025)
- "Current FDA-approved management including adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and vigabatrin, demonstrate efficacy in only 50–60% of cases and often carry significant side effects, such as immunosuppression and visual field deficits. These results highlight the efficacy of blarcamesine to suppress spasms, ameliorate EEG abnormalities, and prevent progression to spontaneous seizures later during development, advancing approaches for managing IESS."

Anavex Life Sciences Announces Continued Long-Term Benefit from Oral Blarcamesine Compared to Decline Observed in the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Control Group
(GlobeNewswire)
- "Externally matched control participants from the ADNI database were compared with participants over the 144-week period of ANAVEX2-73-AD-004 and its ATTENTION-AD (ANAVEX2-73-AD-EP-004) open-label extension (OLE) Phase IIb/III trial...In the intent-to-treat (ITT) population, significantly less cognitive decline was observed for the blarcamesine participants compared to the ADNI control group at 48 weeks with a significant, and clinically meaningful difference in mean change from baseline ADAS-Cog13 total score of −2.68 points (p < 0.0001)....Over the course of the open-label extension study at time point 96 weeks, these two groups diverged sharply, with statistically significant differences in mean change in ADAS-Cog13 total score at 96 weeks of −6.41 points (p < 0.0001). The difference between groups continues to increase at 144 weeks (ADAS-Cog13 total score difference of −12.78 points; p < 0.0001)."

Receptor subtype specific modulation of muscarinic pathways: a mechanistically distinct therapeutic strategy for schizophrenia
(ECNP 2025)
- "VU0152100, a selective M4 PAM, exhibits antipsychotic-like effects in rodent models, reducing amphetamine induced locomotor hyperactivity and reversing behavioral deficits...NBI-1117568, a selective M4 orthosteric agonist in Phase 2 trials for schizophrenia, attenuates dopaminergic hyperactivity and restores sensorimotor gating without sedative or motor impairments. Blarcamesine has shown neuroprotective and cognitive enhancing effects in multiple models... Targeting mAChRs, particularly M1 and M4, provides a receptor subtype specific strategy to address unmet needs in schizophrenia. KarXT and emraclidine represent leading agents in clinical development. Emerging modulators such as BQCA, AC-42, and the VU series highlight the diversity of mechanisms and potential for precision treatment tailored to receptor expression profiles and schizophrenia endophenotypes [3]."
