Forward guidance

Cassava Sciences is awaiting top-line data for RETHINK-ALZ before the end of 2024 and anticipates a top-line data readout for REFOCUS-ALZ approximately mid-year 2025.

Tailwinds

  • Open-label extension study provides no-cost access to oral simufilam to Alzheimer’s patients who have successfully completed a Phase 3 study.
  • Approximately 88% of patients who have completed treatment in one of the two Phase 3 studies have opted to enter the open-label extension study.
  • Cassava plans to add cognition and plasma biomarker monitoring to its OLE trial for patients who have completed either of the two Phase 3 trials.
  • Gathering additional long-term data on the potential impact of simufilam treatment.
  • DSMB recommended that both Phase 3 studies continue as planned, without modification.

Headwinds

  • All efficacy data from Phase 3 program remain blinded.
  • No interim analyses on efficacy outcomes are planned.
  • Clinical results from earlier-stage clinical trials may not be indicative of future results from later-stage or larger scale clinical trials and do not ensure regulatory approval.
  • Research and development activities are long, complex, costly and involve a high degree of risk.
  • Simufilam has not been approved for use in any medical indication by any regulatory authority in any jurisdiction.
