On June 30, 2014, CNS Response, Inc. (the “Company”) was informed that its scientific paper titled “The Use of Psychiatric Electroencephalography Evaluation Registry (PEER) to Personalize Pharmacotherapy” has been accepted for publication by the peer-reviewed journal of Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment.
The Company is conducting a joint clinical study of its patented PEER technology led by Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. In the Quarterly Report for the period ending March 31, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2014, it was disclosed that the publication of interim data, in accordance with the study protocol, was anticipated during the first half of calendar 2014, or shortly thereafter, subject to among other things, military sign-offs, peer reviews of the scientific paper and the publication schedule of the journal. The analysis of interim study data has shown statistically significant results, which are consistent with prior published clinical studies. These studies have shown that the use of PEER improved outcomes for treatment resistant depression patients by two to three times1 when compared with treatment as usual; furthermore, the use of PEER substantially reduced suicidal ideation2.
