MAPREG rescues damaged neuronal function with drugs that specifically stimulate  the neuronal microtubules: a groundbreaking biological approach.
Alterations in Microtubules, including changes in their composition, function and excitotoxic-induced degradation, are at the heart of the main pathophysiological phenomena associated with traumatic injuries, psychiatric disorders, neurodegenerative diseases and stroke.
MAPREG concept consists in stimulating MAP2 with highly specific drug candidates, derived from PREG, to protect and/or regenerate altered neuronal microtubules, thus enabling the neurons to preserve or to recover their architecture, to function and work together. This mechanism has been proven pivotal yet unexplored for a healthy neuronal function.
MAPREG applies this innovative medical strategy for treating several neuronal pathologies:

• Neurotraumas

  • Traumatic injuries of the spinal cord (SCI)
  • Traumatic injuries of brain (TBI),
  • Strokes

• Neuropsychodisorders

  • Psycho-affective disorders (e.g: depressive disorders),
  • Neuro-degenerative disorders (e.g: aging brain)

Today

• MAP4343 is currently being tested in human Phase 2 proof of efficacy trial, targeting Resistant Depression with a unique therapeutic profile: novel mechanism of action, high level of safety.
