The mild-to-moderate stage of disease is characterized by heightened cognitive and functional decline leading to loss of patient independence. Despite this being the most distressing stage for patients and loved ones, there are currently no approved therapies to slow neurodegeneration for this specific population.
Fosgonimeton has the potential to address the mild-to-moderate stage of by providing neuroprotection and neuronal restoration, potentially reversing neurodegenerative symptoms. Stay tuned as we report topline data from our Phase 2/3 LIFT-AD clinical trial evaluating in AD in September.
