Corporate presentation summary
12 Aug, 2026Market opportunity and unmet need
Early Alzheimer's disease represents a significant and expanding market, with over 7 million affected in the U.S. and increasing diagnoses due to improved biomarkers and treatment options.
Current anti-amyloid therapies are gaining traction, but there is demand for next-generation treatments with improved efficacy, safety, and delivery methods.
Pipeline and clinical development
Sabirnetug (ACU193) is a monoclonal antibody highly selective for toxic amyloid beta oligomers, showing positive Phase 1 results and ongoing Phase 2 (ALTITUDE-AD) with topline results expected late 2026.
Subcutaneous formulation of sabirnetug demonstrated favorable pharmacokinetics and safety in healthy volunteers, supporting further development for more convenient dosing.
Enhanced Brain Delivery (EBD) program leverages transferrin receptor technology to improve brain penetration, with preclinical candidate data expected early 2026 and IND filing targeted for mid-2027.
Clinical data and differentiation
Phase 1 INTERCEPT-AD study showed sabirnetug achieves dose-proportional target engagement, significant improvements in CSF and plasma biomarkers, and robust amyloid plaque reduction comparable to leading therapies.
Safety profile is compelling, with low incidence of ARIA-E and no cases in ApoE4 homozygotes, suggesting a broad therapeutic index.
Sabirnetug demonstrates high selectivity for oligomers over monomers and plaques, potentially reducing off-target effects and improving efficacy.
