About the Company’s Neuroprotection Program
Our lead drug candidate, PTI-125, is a small molecule with a unique mechanism of action for treating Alzheimer’s disease ("AD"). We expect to initiate a Phase IIa study with PTI-125 in AD in Q4 2018.

The underlying science for PTI-125 is published in prestigious peer-reviewed journals, including Journal of Neuroscience, Neurobiology of Aging, and Neuroimmunology and Neuroinflammation, and benefits from several peer-reviewed research grant awards from the NIH.

We are also developing a blood-based test, called PTI-125Dx, to detect whether a person has Alzheimer’s disease, possibly years before any symptoms appear. An early diagnosis of AD could optimize treatment options and empower physicians and patients to slow or halt the disease.

About Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a progressive brain disorder that destroys memory and thinking skills. Eventually, a person with AD may be unable to carry out even the simplest tasks. There is a profound and timely need to develop new drugs for Alzheimer’s. Currently, there are no drug therapies to halt Alzheimer’s, much less reverse its course.
