NeuroSense Therapeutics Ltd. said it saw positive final results from a biomarker study conducted to evaluate the potential of NeuroSense's combination platform therapy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
The company said preliminary results from the study showed that TDP-43, a novel biomarker, was elevated in Alzheimer's disease patients compared with a healthy control group.
Based on these preliminary results, NeuroSense said it expanded the study with a larger healthy control group to further validate the results.
NeuroSense's platform combination therapy technology has already shown a statistically significant reduction of TDP-43 in a Phase 2a clinical trial biomarker study in another neurodegenerative disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and is now being evaluated in a Phase 2b ALS double-blind clinical trial.
The company plans to start a Phase 2 double-blind proof-of-concept study in Alzheimer's disease in the first half of 2023.
