SYN120: Biotie has been in advanced discussions for a partnership for further development and commercialization of SYN120, its oral, dual antagonist of the 5- HT6 and 5HT2a receptors. These two distinct properties could result in a unique therapeutic profile for SYN120 combining pro-cognitive and antipsychotic activities. SYN120 has completed single and multiple ascending dose Phase 1 clinical studies and a Phase 1 positron emission tomography imaging study to determine therapeutic dose for subsequent Phase 2 studies. The Company has now concluded that Biotie will be better served by progressing SYN120 internally to the next stage of development. Preparations for a Phase 2 study in Alzheimer's disease have started, with the study expected to begin recruitment by the end of 2014.
