Tiziana Life Sciences announces FDA IND clearance of intranasal foralumab

Tiziana Life Sciences announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, FDA, has cleared the Investigational New Drug, IND, application for intranasal foralumab to be studied in Alzheimer’s disease. Foralumab could be a potentially groundbreaking treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, given it targets the disease’s underlying pathology by addressing the resulting neuroinflammation caused by the accumulation of toxic proteins in the brain. Gabriele Cerrone, Chairman, acting CEO and founder of Tiziana Life Sciences, stated, “The IND clearance is a significant milestone for Tiziana that highlights the strength and the therapeutic potential of foralumab. We are deeply committed to advancing the field of neurodegenerative diseases and bringing much-needed relief to patients suffering from Alzheimer’s with a novel therapeutic approach. We are thrilled to have reached this critical juncture and are eager to move forward with the necessary trials to evaluate the effectiveness of foralumab in Alzheimer’s disease in combination with an FDA approved therapy or as a single agent.”
