About Avergen<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We are dedicated to push the boundaries of medical research and find breakthrough therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Avergen Pharmaceutical GmbH (APG) located in Munich, Germany creates long-term value through collaborative innovative drug discovery programs based on novel drug targets. APG is focused on its core competence in neurodegenerative diseases up to phase II clinical studies. We have an ongoing very successful research cooperation with the University of Munich. All steps involving technology outside the competency of Avergen are outsourced. A complete vertical integration is not planned. Thus, we are looking for industry partners to market our drug candidates.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”gco-company-post-heading”]<\/p>\n

We are developing new treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. Our first drug discovery program is focused on Huntington\u2019s disease (HD). There are 600,000 individuals at risk to develop HD and 90,000 patients with HD in North America and Europe combined. Patients with HD show predominantly central nervous system (CNS) manifestations, including involuntary movements, cognitive decline and personality changes. HD leads to considerable disability and, eventually every person affected by HD will lose the ability to live independently and die. No disease modifying therapies are available for HD. APG has identified a new way of reducing aggregation of mutated huntingtin. The drug candidate is a small molecule, which may be applied orally. Recently, we could demonstrate that our lead compound improves significantly motor symptoms in a rodent model of Huntington\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
