- Expanded Access Program (EAP) for DLB psychosis has shown strong patient demand and positive anecdotal feedback, with funding for another 9-12 months.

**【CMO Commentary】**
- Phase II SHIMMER study showed zervimesine slowed DLB psychosis progression by 86% vs. placebo, targeting disease pathophysiology rather than acute symptoms.
- FDA meetings with the Division of Psychiatry suggest a potential registrational path for DLB psychosis, similar to approved treatments for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's dementia.
- Regulatory alignment with EMA and global trial planning are pending FDA feedback.

- 2025 R&D expenses: $37.2 million (down 11% from 2024), driven by completed trials.
- G&A expenses: $10.6 million (down 14% from 2024), due to reduced stock-based compensation.
- Net loss: $23.5 million (vs. $34 million in 2024), reflecting cost optimization.

**【Q&A Highlights】**
- No plans for ophthalmology partnerships; focus remains on DLB psychosis.
- DLB trial design will prioritize psychosis endpoints, with secondary measures for cognition and motor function.
- Tablet formulation and bioavailability studies expected to complete in 2026.

Cognition Therapeutics Inc (CGTX) Q4 2025 Earnings Call Transcript

- **Strategic Reprioritization**: Terminated dry AMD study to focus on AD/DLB, extending cash runway to Q4 2025.
- **FDA Milestones**: Upcoming End-of-Phase II meetings to lock in trial designs for AD and DLB.
- **Partnership Pursuit**: Actively seeking non-dilutive funding; potential for single-indication deals.
- **Clinical Differentiation**: Zervimesine shows broad efficacy in DLB without biomarker enrichment; AD trials may use tau cutoffs.
- **Manufacturing Readiness**: Novel chemical process filed for patents; CMO in place for commercial scale.


**【CEO Opening Remarks】**
- Focused on advancing zervimesine (CT1812) for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), with Phase II data showing strong efficacy signals.
- Terminated Phase II dry AMD study to prioritize AD/DLB programs, extending cash runway into Q4 2025.
- Seeking FDA End-of-Phase II meetings for AD and DLB to finalize registrational trial designs.
- Exploring partnerships for non-dilutive funding and Phase III readiness, including novel manufacturing process and CMO agreements.

**【CFO Financial Update】**
- Cash and equivalents: $25M (Dec 31, 2024); NIA grant balance: $50M.
- 2024 R&D expenses: $41.7M (vs. $37.2M in 2023), driven by Phase II trial costs.

**【Q&A Key Takeaways】**
1. **FDA Meeting Strategy**: 
   - Planning to propose enrichment biomarkers (e.g., tau cutoff) for AD trials, similar to SHINE study.
   - DLB trials may not require biomarker enrichment due to broad efficacy across subgroups.
   - Targeting doses below 300mg to balance efficacy and safety.
2. **Partnership Outlook**: 
   - Actively engaging with biopharma partners for co-development or funding; no deal announced yet.
   - Potential interest in single indication (e.g., DLB) vs. both AD and DLB.
3. **Competitive Landscape**: 
   - No approved therapies for DLB; zervimesine's neuropsychiatric symptom focus aligns with unmet need.
   - Europe not expected to offer accelerated approval; pursuing traditional Phase III pathways.
   - NIH funding uncertain for Phase III, relying on partnerships and capital markets.
