Aβ-Abs
AD
Preclinical
AL037/AL137-ABC is a proprietary anti-amyloid beta (Aβ) antibody paired with the company’s ABC for the treatment of AD. It is designed to remove brain amyloid plaques, with the potential to reduce the risk of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and enable subcutaneous delivery. It targets a validated epitope specific to brain amyloid plaques, combined with an optimized antibody constant region to enhance phagocytosis of Aβ plaques. By leveraging ABC technology, AL037/AL137-ABC aims to clear Aβ efficiently, thereby reducing plaque accumulation and slowing disease progression while minimizing ARIA.

Tau-siRNA
AD and other tauopathies
Preclinical
AL064/AL164 targets tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. It combines an anti-tau siRNA, which inhibits the synthesis of tau mRNA and protein, with the Alector Brain Carrier to potentially slow disease progression.

GCase-ERT
PD, GD, LBD
Preclinical
AL050 is a GCase enzyme replacement therapy paired with the company’s proprietary ABC for GBA gene mutation carriers with Parkinson’s disease and Lewy body dementia. In these patients, mutations in the GBA gene lead to deficient GCase activity. AL050 uses Alector-engineered GCase, which has been designed to have a longer half-life and to break down glucocerebroside, a lipid that accumulates in neurons and contributes to neurodegeneration. This mechanism aims to reduce cellular dysfunction and slow disease progression.

α-Syn-siRNA
PD
ADP062-ABC targets α-synuclein pathology in Parkinson’s disease. It combines an anti-α-synuclein siRNA, which inhibits the synthesis of α-synuclein mRNA and protein, with the Alector Brain Carrier to potentially slow disease progression.

NLRP3-siRNA
AD, PD
ADP065-ABC targets NLRP3-driven neuroinflammation in Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. It combines an anti-NLRP3 siRNA, which inhibits the synthesis of NLRP3 mRNA and protein, with the Alector Brain Carrier to potentially slow disease progression.
