ArticleInside the Alzheimer’s study backing stem cells, not drugs
In this first-in-human Alzheimer’s study, Wnt-activated autologous stem cells are delivered intracerebroventricularly (directly into the brain) to address neuronal loss, while also reducing amyloid and tau biomarkers and improving cognition. Early data from this regenerative approach could help early drug discovery teams shape target selection, biomarker development and trial design.
