got my annual report...... I'm not used to learning anything from annual reports, but SIBI is so damn tight-lipped (a positive, IMO) and restricted in communications by pharma partners.

There is a chart showing the progress of product candidates. We all know the story for the nAChR agonists 1508Y and 1553A. The new one, 3182, is indicated for Alzheimer's and ADHD, and is shown entering preclinical. So...... ADHD.... interesting!

The Abeta inhibitor from Bristol-Myers Squibb..... the chart and text refer to inhibitors (plural) and the chart shows the project poised right at entry to clinical trials. Nothing new here, but, again, there's a reference to more than one molecule.

For EAAR..... as we already know, the compounds from Ciba (Novartis) are named. Both compounds are shown firmly in preclinical testing, behind the BMS molecules but ahead of 3182. CGP80887 is indicated for pain and CGP79397 is indicated for epilepsy.

Four additional programs are shown in discovery, including the apoptosis inhibitors and VGCC antagonists for neuropathic and chronic pain.
