PNT001
Monoclonal antibody therapeuticA monoclonal antibody targeting an epitope on cis-pT231 tau, a highly neurotoxic conformation of the tau protein implicated in the initiation and spread of tau pathology in neurodegenerative tauopathies.
- Conformation-selective binding to cis-pT231 tau rather than total tau
- Completed Phase 1 single-ascending-dose study in 49 healthy adults at doses from 33 mg to 4,000 mg
- Well tolerated with no maximum tolerated dose reached and no treatment-related discontinuations
- Targets multiple tauopathies including traumatic brain injury, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, Alzheimer's disease and progressive supranuclear palsy
