Experimental antibody aims to tame rare brain disorder
NCT ID NCT04658199
First seen Jul 17, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026
Summary
This study tests the long-term safety of an experimental drug called UCB0107 (bepranemab) in people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a rare brain disorder that affects movement and balance. Participants who completed a prior study receive regular infusions of the drug. The main goal is to see if long-term use is safe and tolerable.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- an experimental antibody drug called UCB0107 (bepranemab)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could pave the way for a treatment that slows the progression of progressive supranuclear palsy.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study focused on safety, not effectiveness. The drug may not work or could cause side effects.
