About CervoMed
CervoMed is a clinical-stage company developing treatments for age-related brain disorders. Its lead drug candidate, neflamapimod, is an oral small molecule targeting critical disease processes underlying degenerative disorders of the brain by inhibiting a key enzyme involved in neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. CervoMed’s recently completed Phase 2b RewinD-LB trial evaluated neflamapimod in patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), enriched for those without Alzheimer’s disease co-pathology, and the Company announced alignment with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on a potential registration path for neflamapimod in DLB in November 2025.
