The first patient in Phase 1b trial for Alzheimer's disease has been dosed with the fibrin-targeting immunotherapy. I am deeply grateful to the patients, clinical centers, the team at Therini Bio, and all the scientists in my lab making the foundational discoveries on fibrin in neurological diseases and the first-in-class fibrin-targeting antibody. globenewswire.com/fr/news-re…
