Alpha Cognition, a biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics for debilitating neurodegenerative disorders, is pleased to announce that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has completed its filing review and has accepted the company’s New Drug Application (NDA) for ALPHA-1062, a proprietary, patented, delayed release oral tablet formulation in development for the treatment of mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s Disease. The NDA has been granted a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date of July 27th, 2024.

Alpha Cognition is a publicly-traded spinout of PEI company Neurodyn.

The NDA submission is based on results from four studies the Company conducted demonstrating bioequivalence for ALPHA-1062 to galantamine and galantamine ER.  Adverse events documented across all studies for ALPHA-1062 were less than 2% and no insomnia was observed.

“The FDA’s acceptance of our NDA for ALPHA-1062 brings us another significant step closer to delivering a much-needed treatment to patients suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease,” said Michael McFadden, Chief Executive Officer of Alpha Cognition. “We look forward to continuing our collaboration with the FDA throughout the review process.”
