Trontinemab, brain shuttle, is an antibody
format composed of gantenerumab and a
linked transferrin receptor (TfR1) binding
moiety
The construct can achieve efficient transport
over the blood brain barrier and target Aẞ
plaque in the brain¹
•
Ongoing Ph I/II study investigating four patient cohors (10-15 patients per cohort) with prodromal or
mild-to-moderate AD for 7 months and with an option to expand most promising cohorts
• Faster and more efficient plaque removal, could result in a more pronounced delay in disease
progression compared to first generation anti-amyloid therapies
•
Updated data from the ongoing Ph I/II study to be presented at CTAD 2023 on Oct 24-27th
1 Gantenerumab brain shuttle results were compared with historical data obtained from a previous gantenerumab SAD trial (BN18726; 2.Kulic L. et al., ADPD 2021); AD=Alzheimer's disease; TfR1-Transferrin receptor protein 1;
IgG-Immuno-globulin G; BBB-blood brain barrier; mAb-monoclonal antibody; Aẞ-Amyloid ẞ; Ab=Antibody
