Cognitive Impairment Associated with Schizophrenia (CIAS) – Pipeline Review, 2019

Schizophrenia is a severe and chronic mental disorder that affects the individual’s ability to think clearly, make decisions, and manage emotions. Cognitive impairment is among the core symptoms of schizophrenia. Cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia results in deficits in memory, attention, and executive function, which negatively impacts the quality of life of patients. According to WHO, schizophrenia affects more than 21 million people in the world, which emphasize the need for novel drugs for its treatment.

There are no pharmacological agents for the treatment of Schizophrenia. Current treatment is focused on reducing or eliminating the symptoms of the disease. Antipsychotics drugs in the form of pills or injection are usually prescribed for the management of the cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia.

Large unmet needs of the patient population hold potential future business opportunity for pharmaceutical manufacturers. As the existing treatment modalities fail to treat the cognitive impairment symptoms, many pharmaceutical companies and research institutes are now focusing on developing new therapies. For instance; BIIB104, which is being studied by Biogen is currently in phase 2 clinical trials to evaluate its efficacy and safety in patients with cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia.
