About Actinogen Medical
Actinogen Medical (ACW) is an ASX-listed, biotechnology company developing a novel therapy for neurological and
neuropsychiatric diseases associated with dysregulated brain cortisol. There is a strong association between cortisol and
detrimental changes in the brain, affecting cognitive function, harm to brain cells and long-term cognitive health.
Cognitive function means how a person understands, remembers and thinks clearly. Cognitive functions include memory,
attention, reasoning, awareness and decision-making.
Actinogen is currently developing its lead compound, Xanamem, ® as a promising new therapy for Alzheimer’s Disease and
Depression and hopes to study Fragile X Syndrome and other neurological and psychiatric diseases in the future. Reducing
cortisol inside brain cells could have a positive impact in these and many other diseases. The cognitive dysfunction, behavioural
abnormalities, and neuropsychological burden associated with these conditions is debilitating for patients, and there is a
substantial unmet medical need for new and improved treatments.
