Business Description
Acumen Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage company working to develop new treatments for Alzheimer's disease. Its lead drug, Sabirnetug, is designed to target a specific form of amyloid-beta protein believed to drive the disease, and is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical trial following encouraging Phase 1 results. The company is also working with Halozyme to develop a version of the drug that patients could take by injection under the skin rather than through an IV.
