CervoMed on Tuesday said a mid-stage study of its lead program neflamapimod missed its key goals in the degenerative brain disease dementia with Lewy bodies, or DLB.
The Boston clinical-stage company said the Phase 2b study didn't meet statistical significance thresholds for its primary endpoint of change in a measure of the disease or any of its key secondary endpoints.
CervoMed said it is pausing all preparations for a planned Phase 3 study until it completes a full analysis of the Phase 2b study results.
Trading in shares of CervoMed, which closed Monday at $10.25, was halted premarket on Tuesday.
