Experimental drug tested in people carrying dementia genes

NCT ID NCT03987295

Completed Disease control Sponsor: Alector Inc. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This study tested the safety and effects of an experimental drug called AL001 in people who carry genetic mutations that cause frontotemporal dementia. The drug was given intravenously to 33 participants over nearly two years to see how their bodies handled it and to measure certain biological markers. The main goal was to understand if the treatment was safe and tolerable, not to cure the disease.
