Send a textDr. Sharron Gargosky, Ph.D. is Chief Clinical Officer of Spinogenix, Inc. ( https://spinogenix.com/ ), a clinical-stage company pioneering a new class of therapeutics designed to reverse synaptic loss and dysfunction in the brain.Spinogenix is advancing two first-in-class oral small molecules. Tazbentetol is a synaptic regenerative therapy shown to regrow brain synapses — the vital connections between neurons. Clinical data have demonstrated rapid and significant improvements in memory and thinking in Alzheimer's disease, as well as clinically meaningful slowing of disease progression in ALS. The therapy is also being evaluated in schizophrenia, with a Phase 2 trial underway. Tazbentetol has received Orphan Drug Designation from both the U.S. FDA and the European Medicines Agency for ALS, and the company has established an Expanded Access Program to provide investigational treatment options to eligible ALS patients.Spinogenix's second program, SPG601, is a synaptic corrective therapy for Fragile X Syndrome — the leading inherited cause of intellectual disability and a known genetic driver of autism. Clinical data have shown normalization of abnormal brain activity patterns and improvements in attention and focus. SPG601 has received Orphan Drug and Fast Track Designations and is advancing toward late-stage development.Dr. Gargosky brings more than 25 years of global development leadership experience across small molecules, biologics, cell therapies, and diagnostics. She has overseen regulatory, CMC, non-clinical, clinical, and medical affairs programs across more than 15 countries, and has led multiple orphan and accelerated approval pathways.Previously, Dr. Gargosky held senior leadership roles at OncoSec Medical, Prima Biomed, Hyperion Therapeutics, Pfizer, and served in academia at Stanford University and Oregon Health & Science University.#Spinogenix #SynapticRegeneration #FragileX #AlzheimersResearch #ALSResearch #Neuroscience #BrainHealth #BiotechInnovation #Synaptopathy #ClinicalTrials #RegenerativeMedicine #Neurodevelopment #SharronGargoskySupport the show

*The information in this podcast is intended for Healthcare Practitioners. Alzheimer's disease is a devasting illness that robs patients of quality and quantity of life and is the leading cause of death in women. Alzheimer's is also the most feared condition in middle to older age adults. This may be in part due to fact, to date, there is little to no evidence that pharmaceutical intervention can slow, let alone reverse, the condition once established. Despite the current pessimistic outlook, there is a growing body of evidence that Alzheimer's can be prevented, slowed, and potentially reversed. Joining the podcast is a juggernaut in Alzheimer's research, Prof Ralph Martins. For over three decades Prof Martins has explored Alzheimer's from all angles – and the future looks promising. In this episode Prof Martins discusses the central role of beta amyloid in Alzheimer's, whilst touching upon some concerns of its clinical utility. Further, Prof Martins reveals some emerging biomarkers that may be a game changer in the near future. Prof Martin then describes powerful, yet not widely appreciated risk factors, namely hearing loss and poor sleep. The conversation also explores the role of APOE in Alzheimer's and findings from his research on dietary factors linked to neuroprotection. Despite the size of the problem, the details in the podcast and Prof Martins' energy and passion should leave listeners with confidence positive change is on the horizon. Professor Ralph Martins is the Foundation Chair in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease at Edith Cowan University. His collaborative seminal research involved isolating and characterising beta-amyloid and its precursor, the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which are now recognised as central to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. He was the first to propose and demonstrate that the Alzheimer brain was under oxidative stress, which is now widely recognized by the Alzheimer research community. Ralph's current research interests are focused on understanding the mechanisms and factor(s) leading to the abnormal release and deposition of βA4 in Alzheimer's disease.

In this episode, Tommy and Andrew mostly talk about Alzheimers Disease, from cause to potential prevention. Sprinkled into the conversation are thoughts on scientific research being corrupted, if it's better to be alive now than 100 years ago, and why the current state of Hospitals falls on the shoulders of the public.

Difficulty sleeping affects many people with Alzheimer's: sleeping longer than usual, trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, or sleeping during the day and being awake at night. For those who do not have Alzheimer's, regularly getting inadequate sleep can increase your risk for the disease.What does research tell us about the link between insomnia and Alzheimer's? And are there steps we can take to help manage the risk created by poor sleep?Host Meryl Comer speaks with two experts on these questions: David Holtzman, MD, of Washington University in St. Louis has led studies linking sleep disorders to greater amyloid-beta and tau accumulation in the brain and thus to an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's.Kristine Yaffe, MD, of the University of California, San Francisco, is an expert on populations studies as well as sleep and Alzheimer’s disease.Support the show (https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/ways-donate)

Are we thinking about Alzheimer’s the wrong way? Best-selling author Dr. Mark Hyman believes we should shift from seeking a single disease path or drug—to a more dynamic framework that considers the many factors that may contribute to Alzheimer’s and then tailoring therapy to the individual. In this Alzheimer’s Talks, host Meryl Comer speaks with Dr. Hyman, of the UltraWellness Center and Cleveland Clinic, about his field (Functional Medicine) and its innovative approaches to Alzheimer’s and dementia. They also discuss a new report, from our ResearchersAgainstAlzheimer’s network, analyzing the science behind lifestyle changes that seem to delay, slow or reduce risk for Alzheimer’s--and take lots of listener questions.

Current treatments for Alzheimer's disease have only minimal and temporary benefits. While the search for more effective Alzheimer’s treatments has seen many disappointments in recent years, the pipeline of drugs in development is far from empty.ResearchersAgainstAlzheimer’s released its 2019 state-of-the pipeline report, and the findings give cause for optimism. A broader range of ideas is being considered to fight the disease, including three new pathways to attack Alzheimer’s that have emerged in the past year alone. In addition, drugs that target amyloid – historically one of the most popular targets of potential Alzheimer’s drugs – have increased 30% since 2017, showing continued interest in the amyloid pathway. And, researchers believe an effective Alzheimer’s treatment may lie in a “cocktail”—a combination of drugs that target various pathways to treat the disease. Finally, the first wave of Alzheimer's prevention trials is well underway - with results available in coming years.Alzheimer's Talks host Meryl Comer speaks with one of the nation’s leading Alzheimer’s disease researchers, Dr. R. Scott Turner, director of the Georgetown University Memory Disorders Program, about the current Alzheimer's drug pipeline and related questions of diagnosis and prevention methods.Support the show (https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/ways-donate)
