Neuren Pharmaceuticals is under Algo Engine buy conditions.
Neuren Pharmaceuticals reported the successful completion of its Share Purchase Plan (SPP) at $2.05 per share, which closed on Friday 1 October 2021.

Total gross proceeds of $23.3 million from the placement and SPP will accelerate the development and increase the value of NNZ-2591 for four neurodevelopmental disorders, by enabling a Phase 2 clinical trial in Prader-Willi syndrome and the foundational work for Phase 3 development across Prader-Willi, Phelan-McDermid, Angelman and Pitt Hopkins syndromes. NNZ-2591 has Orphan Drug designation from the US Food and Drug Administration for all four disorders and from the European Medicines Agency for three.
Neuren CEO Jon Pilcher commented: “We are pleased with and grateful for the support of shareholders in both the placement and the SPP. Neuren is now in a strong financial position as we approach the Rett syndrome Phase 3 results for trofinetide and advance the development of NNZ-2591 for multiple neurodevelopmental disorders in parallel.”
