New treatment option for Alzheimer Disease
Official title BnH-015B Clinical Trial in Moderate Alzheimer's Disease
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06535308
What this study is testing
What is BnH-015B 5 mg?
BnH-015B 5 mg is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for alzheimer disease.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- BnH-015B is a small molecule compound that targets the GluN2B binding site on NMDA receptors and positively modulates. BnH-015B has shown, through nonclinical trials, to improve symptoms of cognitive decline by regulating the BDNF/TRKβ and microglia-mediated IL-33/OPN signaling pathways; therefore, it is expected to be a promising new drug that can significantly improve symptoms associated with Alzheimer's disease, including memory loss.
