Actinogen Medical (ASX: $ACW) or Alto Neuroscience?
- Author: Stock Piper
In recent years, the world has started to pay more attention to mental health, recognising how important it is. Mental health issues, including problems with alcohol or drug use, are becoming more common, now affecting one in eight people worldwide. Conditions like depression and anxiety are not only widespread but also costly, taking a toll of about $1 trillion on the world's economy each year. In the U.S., serious mental health conditions, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, affect one in 25 adults.
Key Insights:
- Actinogen's Xanamem and Alto Neuroscience's market entry.
- How Actinogen's use of randomised placebo control sets a standard.
- The potential of new treatments to transform mental health care.
What's New in Mental Health Treatment?
Alto Neuroscience recently made headlines by joining the stock market with a value of $500 million. This move shows that investors are excited about their new ways of treating mental health conditions. Following Alto's lead, Actinogen Medical, another company working on mental health treatments, might see its value go up too, especially considering its promising drug, Xanamem.Actinogen Medical and Its Drug, Xanamem
Actinogen is working on a special medicine called Xanamem. It is designed to adjust the levels of cortisol (a stress hormone) in the brain, which could help with a range of conditions from memory problems to depression. Despite its potential, Actinogen is currently valued at $50 million, which could mean it is highly undervalued given the impact its drug could have.Why This Matters for Investors and Patients
Both companies are working hard to improve treatments for mental health issues. Actinogen's Xanamem is in the middle of tests to see how well it works for depression and Alzheimer's disease. With an estimated market of $17 billion for depression treatments and $14 billion for Alzheimer's treatments by the next decade, the stakes are high.A Closer Look at Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are where a new drug gets tested to see if it's safe and effective. Here's where Alto Neuroscience and Actinogen Medical differ significantly. Actinogen Medical has chosen to use a method called randomised placebo control in its trials. This means some people get the actual treatment, and others get a placebo (a harmless pill with no medicine), but neither the participants nor the researchers know who is getting what until the trial ends. This method is considered the gold standard for testing new drugs because it helps make sure the results are reliable. Alto Neuroscience, on the other hand, has not used this method for all its studies. While this doesn't automatically mean their results are not useful, it does mean that investors and patients might want to look more closely at the data before drawing conclusions. For investors, understanding the science behind these treatments, as well as the way they are tested, is key to making informed investment decisions. For patients, these developments could offer new hope in managing their conditions.ASX News, First
