Description
Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19596910 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02756858 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19331132 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02244541 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11976553

AE-37 (ANAVEX2-73, Tetrahydro-N, N-dimethyl-2, 2-diphenyl-3-furanemethanamine) is an orally available drug candidate developed to potentially modify Alzheimer’s disease rather than temporarily address its symptoms. It has a clean Phase 1 data profile and shows a reversal of memory loss (anti-amnesic properties) and neuroprotection in several models of Alzheimer’s disease. This drug is in Phase II trials for Alzheimer's disease, phase I trials for epilepsy, and in preclinical trials for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Rett syndrome, stroke. AE-37 may function as a pro-drug for ANAVEX19-144 and acts as a muscarinic receptor and a moderate sigma1 receptor agonist.
