Brain injection trial aims to slow Alzheimer's by targeting toxic protein

NCT ID NCT06372821

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether a new drug called NIO752 can reduce the brain's production of tau protein, which forms toxic tangles in Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will give the drug via spinal injection to 10 participants with mild to moderate Alzheimer's and measure tau levels in their spinal fluid. The main goal is to see if the drug safely lowers tau production, which could potentially slow disease progression.
