Scientists test nasal spray to fight Alzheimer's brain toxins

NCT ID NCT07187141

Summary

This early-stage study tested the safety of a new nasal spray called Protollin in people with early Alzheimer's symptoms. The spray aims to stimulate the body's immune system to help clear toxic amyloid protein from the brain, which is thought to drive the disease. Researchers gave the spray to 16 participants to find the highest safe dose and see if it triggered the intended immune response.
