About ACADIA Pharmaceuticals
ACADIA is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and
commercialization of innovative medicines to address unmet medical needs
in central nervous system disorders. ACADIA has a pipeline of product
candidates led by NUPLAZID™ (pimavanserin), for which we have submitted
a New Drug Application (NDA) in Parkinson’s disease psychosis to the FDA
and which has the potential to be the first drug approved in the United
States for this condition. The FDA has classified the NUPLAZID NDA as
having Priority Review status. Pimavanserin is also in Phase II
development for Alzheimer’s disease psychosis and has successfully
completed a Phase II trial in schizophrenia. ACADIA also has
clinical-stage programs for glaucoma and, in collaboration with
Allergan, Inc., for chronic pain. ACADIA maintains a website at www.acadia-pharm.com
to which we regularly post copies of our press releases as well as
additional information and through which interested parties can
subscribe to receive e-mail alerts.
