Key Developments
- Program Shift: Following the failure of two late-stage trials for its Alzheimer's drug, the company has completely discontinued the program. The primary focus is now on developing simufilam for TSC-related epilepsy, with a proof-of-concept clinical study planned for the first half of 2026.
- Insider Stock Purchase: CEO Richard Barry made a significant insider purchase of shares in September 2025, the first in over a year, which led to a temporary 50% surge in the stock price and a shift in market sentiment despite ongoing challenges.
- Financials and Ratings: For Q2 2025, Cassava reported a net loss of $44.2 million, primarily due to a litigation settlement contingency. The stock has been highly volatile, trading near its 52-week low, and recently received a "sell (D-)" rating from Weiss Ratings.
- Leadership and Operations: The company has appointed new experienced professionals to its clinical and scientific teams and implemented cost-reduction measures, including a 33% workforce reduction.
