Evaluation of Safety and Tolerability of Libella Gene Therapy for Alzheimer's Disease: AAV- hTERT

NCT04133454 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 5

Last updated 2019-10-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Using gene therapy to express active telomerase (hTERT) in human cells has the potential to treat many neurodegenerative diseases related to aging, including Alzheimer's disease (AD).

This study will entail treating subjects with hTERT delivered via transduction using AAV. The goal is to extend the telomeres to prevent, delay, or even reverse the development of the pathology of AD. It is expected to have a direct consequence on cognitive function and quality of life in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, such as AD.
