American Marconi Wireless News - USPTO Grants IGC Pharma Patent Covering IGC-AD1 for Novel Composition Targeting Alzheimer's Disease and Central Nervous System Disorders

The patent granted on November 11, 2025, covers a proprietary composition for treating Alzheimer's disease including amyloid plaque, tau tangles as well as symptoms associated with Alzheimer's, such as agitation, memory, cognition, anxiety, and sleep disturbances.

Ram Mukunda, CEO of IGC Pharma, commented, "This patent further strengthens the robustness of our intellectual property portfolio as we move closer to commercialization of IGC-AD1. It reinforces our position in developing differentiated therapies that target both the behavioral and disease-modifying aspects of Alzheimer's disease, with the goal of delivering safer, more effective solutions for patients and caregivers."

This patented composition is designed to reduce amyloid-beta (Aβ) expression and aggregation, enhance mitochondrial function, decrease phosphorylation of GSK3β, and lower tau phosphorylation, thereby addressing both behavioral symptoms and core disease mechanisms of Alzheimer's. Importantly, the combination seeks to achieve these effects without serious side effects, a critical advancement in the development of safer, more effective therapies for neurodegenerative diseases.

The company's research focus continues to target the mechanisms that underlie Alzheimer's progression, including Aβ aggregation, tau pathology, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuroinflammation-pathways long associated with cognitive decline and behavioral symptoms.
