Cassava Sciences Announces Plans for Clinical Study of Simufilam in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex-Related Epilepsy, Following Promising Preclinical Results
Cassava Sciences Inc. recently announced the presentation of promising preclinical data for simufilam, a small molecule treatment, at the TSC International Research Conference held in Bethesda, MD. The data demonstrated that simufilam reduced seizure activity by 60% in a preclinical mouse model of focal onset seizures associated with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). The company plans to initiate human clinical studies in the first half of 2026 to evaluate simufilam as a treatment for TSC-related epilepsy. Earlier human Phase 3 studies in Alzheimer's disease involving 1,929 patients indicated a favorable safety profile for simufilam. The company is conducting additional preclinical studies to further explore simufilam's mechanism of action and potential benefits for TSC-related epilepsy.
