Eisai Co., Ltd. has unveiled new findings on the anti-tau antibody etalanetug (E2814) at the CTAD 2025 conference, showcasing its potential for Alzheimer's treatment.

Eisai announces the grant of FDA's Fast Track designation for Etalanetug, an anti-tau antibody aimed at Alzheimer's treatment and improving patient outcomes.

Treatment with etalanetug reduced cerebrospinal fluid eMTBR-tau243 by 62% and plasma eMTBR-tau243 by 78% at 3 months in patients with dominantly inherited Alzheimer disease.

Das japanische Pharmaunternehmen Eisai hat auf der 18. Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) Conference neue Ergebnisse zu seinem Anti-Tau-Antikörper Etalanetug (E2814) vorgestellt. Das Mittel, das an die Mikrotubuli-Bindungsregion (MTBR) des Tau-Proteins bindet und dessen Ausbreitung verhindern soll, reduzierte in einer Phase-Ib/II-Studie bei Patienten mit dominanter erblicher Alzheimer-Erkrankung (DIAD) den neuartigen Biomarker eMTBR-tau243 im Liquor um bis zu 89 Prozent und im Plasma um über 90 Prozent.

Etalanetug demonstrated reduction of eMTBR-tau243, a novel CSF and plasma biomarker that specifically reflects tau tangle pathology, in Phase Ib/II study TOKYO, Dec. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Eisai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, CEO: Haruo Naito) today announced that new data on anti-tau...
