Summary

This early-stage trial tested the safety of a new drug called NIO752 in 59 people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a rare brain disorder that affects movement and balance. Participants received multiple doses of the drug or a placebo injected into the spinal fluid. The main goal was to check for side effects and how the drug moves through the body, not to measure if it improves symptoms.
