Cingulate is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines that can help patients suffering from medical conditions with burdensome daily dosing regimens. The company’s initial efforts are focused on the treatment of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD.

Cingulate’s two proprietary first-line stimulant medications, CTx-1301 and CTx-1302, are being developed for the treatment of ADHD in children, adolescents and adults.

The company’s products are designed to take effect immediately, last for an entire day, eliminate the need for a booster dose, and reduce or eliminate rebound/crash symptoms. Cingulate plans to start Phase 3 trials for CTx-1301 in the fourth quarter of 2021 with results expected in late 2022, and a Phase 1/2 bioavailability study for CTx-1302 in early 2022.
