The first presentation will discuss the Company's development plan for Parkinson's (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), and the second presentation will show how mouse data fully predicts human outcome in improving function in AD and PD.
Dr. Maria Maccecchini, Chief Executive Officer of
Dr.
Additionally, Dr. Maria Maccecchini will combine and compare old data in mice and new data in humans to show that mouse and rat data are predictive of human outcomes. In the presentation, titled "Do Mouse Data Lie? For Buntanetap They Totally Predict Human Outcome", data from the AD mice, Down Syndrome mice, PD mice, two Phase 1/2 double-blind, placebo-controlled human AD studies and one Phase 2 PD study will be compared to show the consistency on buntanetap's mechanism of action, the reversal of the toxic cascade and the resulting efficacy in AD and PD mice and humans.
Details on the Company's two presentations are provided below.

About AD/PD™ 2023 *
The AD/PD™ Conference offers a high-quality scientific program covering the most recent research, clinical trials, developments, and treatments in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, with emphasis on overlaps and congruent results among AD. This provides participants with unparalleled and powerful insights into distinct neurodegenerative diseases in one setting to examine their similarities and differences. Science and education are the main forces behind AD/PD™ conferences and participants agree that the quality of the content and the educational value are what set it apart from other events in the field. The conference provides a world class platform for clinical investigators and basic scientists to present, discuss and trade expertise on a broad range of themes and topics. AD/PD™ has gone from strength to strength attracting over 3,800 participants from 75 countries and over 2,200 abstracts in 2019.

About Buntanetap
Buntanetap (previously known as ANVS401 or Posiphen) is an oral translational inhibitor of neurotoxic aggregating proteins (TINAPs), which mode of action leads to a lower level of neurotoxic proteins and consequently less toxicity in the brain. In a Phase 2a clinical trial in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, buntanetap was shown to be well-tolerated and safe, and its pharmacokinetics were found to be in line with levels measured earlier in humans, meeting both the primary and secondary endpoints. Additionally, exploratory endpoints were also met, as treatment with buntanetap resulted in statistically significant improvement in motor function in PD patients and cognition in AD patients. Presently buntanetap is being studied in a Phase 3 early PD study and in a Phase 2/3 study in AD patients.
About Annovis Bio, Inc.
Headquartered in Berwyn, Pennsylvania, Annovis Bio, Inc. (Annovis) is a clinical-stage, drug platform company addressing neurodegeneration, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and other chronic neurodegenerative diseases. We believe that we are the only company developing a drug for AD and PD that inhibits more than one neurotoxic protein and, thereby, improves the information highway of the nerve cell, known as axonal transport. When this information flow is impaired, the nerve cell gets sick and dies. Annovis conducted two Phase 2 studies: one in AD patients and one in both AD and PD patients. In the AD/PD study buntanetap showed improvements in cognition and memory in AD as well as body and brain function in PD patients.
