Welcome to our dedicated page for Gain Therapeutics news (Ticker: GANX), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Gain Therapeutics stock.
Gain Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: GANX) is a pioneering biotechnology company committed to the discovery and development of novel small molecule therapeutics. Specializing in addressing rare genetic diseases, Gain Therapeutics focuses on orphan diseases caused by inborn errors of metabolism. With a strong emphasis on lysosomal storage disorders, central nervous system disorders, metabolic disorders, and oncology, the company's innovative approach aims to provide solutions where there is a high unmet medical need.
At the forefront of Gain Therapeutics' pipeline is GT-02287, a promising clinical-stage product candidate targeting GBA1 Parkinson's disease. Currently in Phase 1 clinical trials, GT-02287 is designed to be a disease-modifying treatment. It functions as an allosteric protein modulator to restore the activity of the lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase), tackling the underlying cause of disease rather than just alleviating symptoms.
The company's proprietary Magellan™ platform leverages AI-supported structural biology and advanced algorithms to discover novel allosteric binding sites on disease-implicated proteins. This innovative computational technology identifies potential small molecules that can bind to these sites, offering new avenues for therapeutic development. Magellan builds upon Gain’s original SEE-Tx® platform, enhancing it with AI and virtual screening capabilities to explore vast chemical spaces.
Recent achievements highlight Gain Therapeutics' impact on the biotech landscape. Data presented at the 20th WORLDSymposium™ showcased the progressive reversal of motor deficits in preclinical models, alongside a significant reduction of neurodegeneration biomarkers. This underscores the potential of GT-02287 as a best-in-class treatment for neurodegenerative diseases.
Gain Therapeutics collaborates with notable organizations including The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research and The Silverstein Foundation for Parkinson’s with GBA. These partnerships provide essential support and validation for the company's mission to transform therapeutic landscapes with innovative treatments.

Gain Therapeutics has presented data at the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS) Forum 2024 showing that their lead therapeutic candidate, GT-02287, has significantly improved cognitive function and activities of daily living in a preclinical model of GBA1 Parkinson's disease (GBA1-PD). The study demonstrated a reversal of motor function deficits in mice, assessed through nest-building and motor performance tests. The GT-02287 therapy was administered orally and showed promising results in enhancing daily activities reflecting human cognitive performance. The presentation, made on June 27, 2024, aligns with the company’s ongoing Phase 1 clinical study aimed at delivering effective treatments for Parkinson’s disease.
