the one-day seminar, entitled "Using Neuroscience-based Interventions to
Address Learning Disabilities that Inhibit Academic Success., a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines that protect
and enhance memory and cognition, today announced the commencement of a Phase
II clinical study of the company's lead product candidate, SGS742, for adult
patients with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Results from
this trial demonstrated that patients treated with SGS742 exhibited
improvements in multiple cognitive domains, including psychomotor skills,
attention and memory .
