CERE-110 in Subjects With Mild to Moderate Alzheimer's Disease
Bu çalışma, hafif ila orta şiddette Alzheimer hastalığı (Alzheimer's disease) olan kişilerde, sinir büyüme faktörünü (NGF) beyne ulaştırmak için adeno-ilişkili virüs kullanan bir gen terapisi olan CERE-110'u incelemektedir. Çalışmaya, tanısı NINCDS/ADRDA ölçütlerine göre doğrulanmış ve standart tedavileri kararlı olan hastalar alınmıştır. Araştırma Faz 1 aşamasında yürütülmüş ve tamamlanmıştır.
