Cassava Sciences, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on neuroscience. The Company's science is based on stabilizing, but not removing, a critical protein in the Alzheimer’s brain. Its scientific approach for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease seeks to simultaneously suppress both neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation. It has two biopharmaceutical assets under development: Simufilam and SavaDx. Simufilam, its lead therapeutic product candidate, is an oral treatment for Alzheimer’s disease dementia. Simufilam targets an altered form of a protein called filamin A (FLNA) in the Alzheimer’s brain. It is conducting two randomized placebo-controlled Phase III clinical trials of oral simufilam in patients with Alzheimer’s disease dementia. SavaDx, its lead investigational diagnostic product candidate, is a way to detect the presence of Alzheimer’s disease from a small sample of blood. SavaDx is a research-use only, non-safety related exploratory biomarker.
