Company Overview

VistaGen Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:VTGN) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery and development of next-generation medicines for central nervous system disorders. Incorporated in Delaware in 1998 and headquartered in South San Francisco, California, VistaGen applies advanced human pluripotent stem cell technologies to accelerate drug candidate validation and optimization. The company’s core focus is on addressing unmet medical needs in major depressive disorder, neuropathic pain and dermatological conditions.

The company’s lead candidate, AV-101, is an oral prodrug designed to modulate glutamatergic neurotransmission via the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor pathway, with clinical programs targeting major depressive disorder and neuropathic pain. VistaGen also develops PH-10, a topical neuroactive small molecule in clinical development for psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. To broaden its development reach, VistaGen has entered strategic partnerships, including a licensing agreement with Yuhan Corporation for AV-101 in South Korea, and continues to advance its clinical and regulatory strategy primarily in North America and Asia.

VistaGen’s proprietary Human Clinical Drug Rescue and ReRationalization platform employs patient-derived pluripotent stem cell–derived neural and cardiac cells to predict clinical efficacy and safety, reduce late-stage development risk and complement traditional preclinical models. This platform supports both in-house pipeline programs and collaborative research initiatives. Leading the company is President and Chief Executive Officer Shawn K. Singh, who has overseen VistaGen’s research and corporate development efforts since joining in 2014 and remains committed to translating innovative science into new therapeutic options for underserved patient populations.
