    NEW YORK, Sept. 02, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Axsome Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXSM), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapies for the management of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, announced today that Randall Kaye, M.D. is transitioning from his role as Chief Medical Officer (CMO) of the Company to Senior Clinical Advisor, effective September 1, 2016. This new role allows Dr. Kaye to continue to provide his expertise to Axsome while making time for his other medical interests.

    “I would like to thank Dr. Kaye for his service to Axsome as CMO and look forward to his ongoing involvement as Senior Clinical Advisor,” said Herriot Tabuteau, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Axsome Therapeutics. “Dr. Kaye in his new role, coupled with recent key additions to Axsome’s medical team, significantly broadens our capabilities and positions us well to continue to advance our late-stage pipeline.”

    “The transition from CMO to Senior Clinical Advisor permits me to continue to support Axsome’s growing clinical team while re-engaging with my former consulting firm. Axsome is in a strong position, which gives me confidence that this is an appropriate time for this transition,” said Dr. Kaye. “I am proud of the impressive progress we have made with now three Phase 3 trials underway in three indications with two product candidates. I am a firm believer in the science and clinical potential of Axsome’s promising pipeline, and look forward to continuing to support its development.”
