VistaGen Therapeutics (NASDAQ: VTGN), a biopharmaceutical company developing new generation medicines for anxiety, depression and other central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders, recently announced positive new data from the company’s second preclinical study of its oral investigational drug, AV-101, in combination with probenecid. According to the update, results of the new study complement previous preclinical data demonstrating the combination’s potential to substantially increase the brain concentration of AV-101’s active metabolite, 7-Cl-KYN, a potent and selective full antagonist of the NMDA receptor glycine co-agonist site, thereby reducing NMDA receptor signaling. “These new positive results amplify our message that AV-101, when administered in combination with probenecid, has exciting therapeutic potential across a wide range of CNS indications,” said VistaGen CEO Shawn Singh in the news release. “The studies completed to date are promising and will help us determine the best next step in our overall development plan for the combination.”
