Overview

Simufilam, the company’s lead oral small molecule targeting filamin A for Alzheimer’s disease, failed to show clinical benefit in two large Phase 3 trials (RETHINK-ALZ and REFOCUS-ALZ). Both studies did not meet their primary endpoints and were discontinued in late 2024. The company has since ended its Alzheimer’s program but is exploring simufilam for other central nervous system disorders such as TSC-related epilepsy[2][4][6].
