IGC Pharma (NYSE American: IGC), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company, is reporting on preclinical results in an Alzheimer’s mouse model. According to the announcement, the model demonstrates the potential of IGC Pharma’s therapeutic candidate, TGR-63, to combat Alzheimer’s disease. Specifically, the students show a “significant reduction” in amyloid plaque, totaling 78% in the cortex and 85% in the hippocampus. These findings suggest that TGR-63 has potential to slow or even reverse the progression of Alzheimer’s. These positive results could mean that TGR-63 will advance through clinical trials. The company noted that it anticipates beginning a phase 1 trial for the candidate next year, although there is no guarantee. “These preclinical results for TGR-63 are highly encouraging,” said IGC Pharma CEO Ram Mukunda in the press release. “The significant reduction in amyloid plaque burden in an Alzheimer’s mouse model observed in this study suggests TGR-63 has the potential to be a transformative treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. TGR-63 is filed for patent protection in U.S. patent application, further strengthening its potential value. We are committed to advancing TGR-63 through clinical trials to determine its efficacy and safety in human patients, offering new hope for the 50 million individuals affected by this devastating illness.”

About IGC Pharma
IGC Pharma is focused on Alzheimer’s disease, developing innovative solutions to address this devastating illness. The company’s mission is to transform the landscape of Alzheimer’s treatment with a robust pipeline of five promising drug candidates. IGC-AD1 is currently undergoing a phase 2 clinical trial for agitation in dementia associated with Alzheimer’s. The remaining four molecules are in the preclinical stage of development. TGR-63 disrupts the progression of Alzheimer’s by targeting Aβ plaques, a key hallmark of Alzheimer’s. IGC-M3 aims to inhibit the aggregation of Aβ plaques, potentially impacting early-stage Alzheimer’s. IGC-1C targets tau protein and neurofibrillary tangles, representing a forward-thinking approach to Alzheimer’s therapy. LMP is designed to target multiple hallmarks of Alzheimer’s including plaques and tangles for a comprehensive approach to the disease. In addition to its drug-development pipeline, IGC Pharma seeks to leverage artificial intelligence (“AI”) for Alzheimer’s research. The company’s AI projects encompass various areas, including clinical trial optimization and early detection of Alzheimer’s. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.IGCInc.us.
