 PROFILE
Cortex Pharmaceuticals, a development-stage company, researches and develops drugs to treat neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders. Cortex's research focuses on the AMPA receptor, which facilitates communication between nerve cells. The company's AMPAKINE compounds are currently being tested to enhance this receptor's activity. Drug candidates include CX516 for schizophrenia and memory and cognition impairment from Alzheimer's disease. The firm has also developed calpain (a protease) inhibitors as a possible treatment for strokes, but the project is on the back burner. Cortex has a partnership with Organon, a unit of Akzo Nobel N.V., to develop and market its products.
