Cognito Therapeutics develops non-invasive treatments for Alzheimer's disease by targeting abnormal neuronal activity in the brain.

Cognito Therapeutics

Cognito Therapeutics is a pioneer in non-invasive neuromodulation to treat neurodegenerative diseases and improve human cognitive performance. The company has completed multiple clinical studies demonstrating its investigational therapeutic has the potential to safely slow or stop cognitive decline and loss of brain volume in Alzheimer’s disease. 

Cognito has received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and expects to start pivotal studies in 2022. The company’s technology was based on pioneering optogenetics research by scientific co-founders Professors Li-Huei Tsai and Ed Boyden at MIT.

Excited to share these new findings for our disease modifying therapy Spectris at the Alzheimer's Association® International Conference 2024. #AAIC24 🧠🧠

- Spectris AD™ meaningfully reduced functional and cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s Disease over 6 months compared to sham treatment and was associated with 60-84% time savings.

- OVERTURE I Phase 2 MRI analysis demonstrated reduced corpus callosum atrophy over 6 months.

“This new post hoc analysis from our OVERTURE I study highlight Spectris’ ability to significantly slow the decline in daily function and cognition in patients with #Alzheimer’s, potentially offering patients more time to maintain their independence and quality of life,” said Ralph Kern, M.D., MHSc, Chief Medical Officer, Cognito Therapeutics. “These results reinforce our commitment to bring a novel disease-modifying therapy to patients, as we continue to enroll patients in our HOPE pivotal trial.”

Thanks MassDevice for featuring Cognito as one of the 7 #neurotech companies to know! 🧠🧠🧠

Since bringing in a $73 million Series B last year, Cognito Therapeutics has delivered multiple positive study updates for its non-invasive neuromodulation technology.

The Cambridge, Massachusetts–based company’s Spectris system could provide disease-modifying therapy for treating Alzheimer’s disease. Its non-invasive neuromodulation device delivers proprietary gamma frequency light and sound stimulation. This evokes EEG-confirmed gamma frequency brain oscillations to treat central nervous system (CNS) diseases.

Early results suggest that combined Spectris outcomes fall in line with published criteria for disease modification. Cognito said the data supports early treatment as well.

Dr. Ralph Kern, chief medical officer of Cognito Therapeutics, said: “This innovative therapy has the potential to be seamlessly integrated as a home-based treatment into the lives of patients and caregivers.”
