Targeting the Brain’s Immune System in Alzheimer’s Disease

Episode Description from the Publisher

Alzheimer’s disease remains one of medicine’s most intractable challenges. While existing therapies may address individual features of the disease, such as amyloid or tau, they have yet to reverse the progressive cognitive decline, inflammation, and neurodegeneration that characterize it. Evinco Therapeutics is developing nanoscale, natural killer cell-derived particles that carry proteins and microRNAs to target the neuroinflammation underlying Alzheimer’s. Alan Trounson, founder and CEO of Evinco Therapeutics, discusses the company’s multifaceted therapeutic approach, how these particles are designed to cross the blood-brain barrier, and their potential to modulate neuroinflammation, support the brain’s immune cells, and promote amyloid clearance.
