Today @AltoNeuro began trading on the @NYSE under the ticker $ANRO. I founded Alto out of the desire to give patients better treatment options than those that are currently available. Today we take one step closer to our goal of making #PrecisionPsychiatry a reality.

We remain on track to report findings from the first clinical study of ALTO-203 in 1H 2025, which examines its symptomatic, cognitive and other pharmacodynamic effects in depressed patients with anhedonia given single doses of the drug. Kudos to the @altoneuro team!.

This of course is just one aspect of what H3 receptors regulate, and we expect that ALTO-203’s effects on dopamine could improve other aspects of brain function such as cognition (long related to dopamine, and of interest in studies of H3 inverse agonists).

These findings provide further support for the idea that ALTO-203 has properties unique from the one approved H3 drug (pitolisant), one of which is relevant for motivated behavior like reward-seeking/anhedonia.

We induced anhedonia in rodents by giving them a drug (AMPT) that depletes dopamine. We found that specific doses of ALTO-203 can rescue this deficit, but that pitolisant cannot.

What ALTO-203 appears to do uniquely from other H3 inverse agonists, is increase dopamine in the reward system, not just in the cortex as other drugs like pitolisant do. We therefore tested whether ALTO-203 had unique effects on dopamine-related behavior like anhedonia.
