InvestorNewsBreaks – Silo Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: SILO) Announces Plans for Exclusive Licensing of Novel Therapeutic for Alzheimer’s Disease

Silo Pharma (NASDAQ: SILO), a developmental-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel formulations and drug-delivery systems for traditional therapeutics and psychedelic treatments, is exercising its option to license Alzheimer’s disease (“AD”) therapeutic SPC-14 from Columbia University. The option was outlined in a research and option agreement between Silo Pharma and the university in 2021. According to the announcement, SPC-14 shows cognitive and stress-reduction benefits in preclinical models. Silo Pharma will be granted an exclusive license to develop, manufacture and commercialize the novel therapeutic worldwide. Silo Pharma anticipates finalizing the exclusive license agreement in the first half of 2024. “Columbia University has discovered a therapeutic candidate that could bring relief and hope for Alzheimer’s patients and families,” said Silo Pharma CEO Eric Weisblum in the press release. “In our opinion, available treatments for AD remain largely inadequate. We believe that the cognitive improvement and stress reduction shown by SPC-14 in preclinical studies could hold promise for this underserved disease market.”
