We remain committed to advancing our progranulin-elevating candidate and evaluating its impact in the ongoing trial.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PROGRESS-AD is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial of AL101, which GSK is conducting at multiple sites globally. Two dose levels of AL101 are being evaluated in the trial, with participants randomized to receive either AL101 or placebo intravenously. The primary endpoint of the study is disease progression as measured by the Clinical Dementia Rating Sum of Boxes (CDR<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>-SB). The CDR-SB is a validated instrument that tracks the progression of cognitive impairments in various categories. The trial also measures other clinical and functional outcome assessments.<\/p>\n<p>Additional information about PROGRESS-AD (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=QAGTxYsdMELjS9gHumWnFc8h1z1C2Me9yFNXZ_HMqeq3yB8QE0zKgZVHFQ0tGRJzoxz6jNmhRSm4KI7EuA8SKp0z-jfs9L-5Nqx3N0Qr2bGxoOlTKCVZQUka8hpPBjDDE24g03etBD0vSdstxiHArEdR16pNeXE_ffdBGxk2wXojkLBMGAkZyZy7ERS3y6zZ\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NCT06079190)<\/a> may be found at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=iKp0eCWmMwJxSdUskzAZdDPUTnWgdHTqnmKu_7JkceI_CjjS55OVeqJf5rWSGrtIc1AC5-l590shzs71wi3y6hXbAwBOVhDM62ad9ZYpUQw=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">ClinicalTrials.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About AL101\/<\/strong><br \/>\n        <strong>GSK4527226<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>AL101\/GSK4527226 is an investigational human monoclonal antibody designed to block and downregulate the sortilin receptor to elevate progranulin (PGRN) levels in the brain. PGRN, a protein encoded by the <em>GRN<\/em> gene, regulates lysosomal function, neuronal survival, and inflammation. The protein is genetically linked to multiple neurodegenerative disorders. Alector and GSK are co-developing AL101 for the potential treatment of early Alzheimer\u2019s disease (AD), and it may also be evaluated for other indications, including Parkinson\u2019s disease (PD). Given PGRN&#8217;s genetic association with neurodegeneration, elevating PGRN levels may provide a potential therapeutic approach that offers broad neuroprotection in both AD and PD.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Collaboration with GSK<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>In July 2021, Alector entered into a collaboration and license agreement with GSK (LSE\/NYSE: GSK) to collaborate on the global development and commercialization of progranulin-elevating monoclonal antibodies, including latozinemab and AL101\/GSK4527226. Under the terms of the GSK agreement, Alector received $700 million in upfront payments. In addition, Alector may be eligible to receive up to an additional $1.5 billion in clinical development, regulatory, and commercial launch-related milestone payments. In the United States, the companies will equally share profits and losses from commercialization of latozinemab and AL101. Outside of the United States, Alector will be eligible for double-digit tiered royalties.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Alector<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Alector is a late-stage clinical biotechnology company focused on developing therapies to counteract the devastating progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Leveraging the principles of genetics, immunology, and neuroscience, the company is advancing a portfolio of genetically validated programs that aim to remove toxic proteins, replace deficient proteins, and restore immune and nerve cell function. Supported by biomarkers, Alector\u2019s product candidates seek to treat a range of indications, such as frontotemporal dementia, Alzheimer\u2019s disease, and Parkinson&#8217;s disease. The company is also developing Alector Brain Carrier (ABC), a proprietary blood-brain barrier platform, which is being selectively applied to its next-generation product candidates and research pipeline. ABC aims to enhance the delivery of therapeutics, achieve deeper brain penetration and efficacy at lower doses, and ultimately improve patient outcomes while reducing costs.
