STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN / ACCESS Newswire / February 27, 2025 / AlzeCure Pharma (STO:ALZCUR)(FRA:AC6) AlzeCure Pharma AB (publ) (FN STO:ALZCUR) today announced that its Year-end report for the period January - December 2024 is now available on the company's website: www.alzecurepharma.com/en/section/investors/financial-reports/
"The fourth quarter of 2024 was yet another positive and eventful quarter for AlzeCure Pharma. During the quarter, we published and presented new positive preclinical findings from our clinical Alzheimer's project NeuroRestore, which we are preparing for Phase II clinical studies. Furthermore, in our second Alzheimer's project, Alzstatin, we opted to advance our latest molecule, ACD680, and prepare it for clinical trials. We also published new data from our pain project targeting knee osteoarthritis, TrkA-NAM. In preclinical models, we have shown that the analgesic effects of the candidate drug ACD137 are at least on par with the antibody Tanuzemab, while also exhibiting potential protective effects. These results are highly promising and we are very pleased with them.
In February 2025 we were also awarded a €2.5 million grant from the European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator under the Horizon Europe program, with the potential to receive additional financing through the EIC Fund, subject to further due diligence and conditions being met. We are very proud and honored to receive this prestigious funding from the EIC Accelerator, which is both a significant financial contribution to the company and a recognition of the groundbreaking potential of ACD856. This grant will accelerate our clinical development and brings us closer to delivering a transformative therapy for Alzheimer's patients."
Martin Jönsson, CEO
