“We are pleasantly surprised to see a statistically significant drop in TDP43 levels in just 10 patients and to see a strong trend in GFAP and NfL. To our knowledge this is the first time that a drug reduces the levels of TDP43 in humans, specifically here in PD patients,” said Dr. Maccecchini. “These biomarker data not only corroborate the mechanism of actions of buntanetap, but also provide a new way to stratify patients and understand their disease pathology. We will measure the above biomarkers in the plasma of the patients that are presently in our phase 3 PD study to show the effect our drug has on the course of the disease over a six-month period.”
