Synaptogenix is one of few companies developing therapeutics for advanced Alzheimer's disease
(AD); no such drug has received FDA approval to date

Topline data from NIH-supported Phase 2 clinical trial for advanced AD patients expected in
current quarter

NEW YORK, Oct. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Synaptogenix, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPX) ("Synaptogenix" or the "Company"), an emerging biopharmaceutical company developing regenerative therapeutics for neurodegenerative disorders, today announced that President and Chief Scientific Officer Daniel L. Alkon, M.D. will deliver a presentation and host meetings with investors at the upcoming ThinkEquity Conference.

At the conference, Dr. Alkon plans to discuss the Company's National Institutes of Health (NIH)-sponsored Phase 2 clinical trial of its lead therapeutic candidate Bryostatin-1 for the treatment of moderate to moderately severe AD. The trial is on schedule for topline data during the fourth quarter of 2022.

"Our priority is to develop a drug to cause real and sustained improvement in Alzheimer's patients, a drug that will treat the underlying disease and prevent its progression," said Dr. Alkon. "We are pursuing our innovative AD treatment with a strategy that has been validated in extensive preclinical models to regenerate and regrow the synaptic connections in the brain and prevent the death of neurons that communicate through these connections. Now is one of the most exciting times in our Company history as we await topline data from our Phase 2 trial."

About Synaptogenix

Synaptogenix is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that has historically worked to develop novel therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. Synaptogenix has conducted clinical and preclinical studies of its lead therapeutic candidate, Bryostatin-1, in Alzheimer's disease. Preclinical studies have also demonstrated Bryostatin's regenerative mechanisms of action for the rare disease, Fragile X syndrome, and for other neurodegenerative disorders such as multiple sclerosis, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Synaptogenix for Bryostatin-1 as a treatment for Fragile X syndrome. Bryostatin-1 has already undergone testing in more than 1,500 people in cancer studies, thus creating a large safety data base that will further inform clinical trial designs.
