From the press release:

Additionally, Dr. Simmon reported, "Preliminary results from our clinical trial in patients with schizophrenia suggest that Ampakines may substantially improve both memory and cognition. This trial also provided the first evidence that Ampakines might be useful in treating ADD."

Additional results from this trial will be presented on April 18, 1999, by Donald Goff, M.D. at the International Society for Schizophrenia Research in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Dr. Goff is Medical Director, Freedom Trail Clinic, Erich Lindemann Mental Health Center, Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA.

Published studies demonstrate that Ampakines can cause a statistically significant increase in the memory of elderly animals and humans. In addition to the trial in patients with schizophrenia, Cortex's AMPA modulating compound CX516 is currently in a Phase I/IIa trial in patients with Alzheimer's disease at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, MD.
