- Acumen presented non-human primate data for its Enhanced Brain Delivery bispecific antibody program targeting Aβ oligomers via transferrin receptor transport.
- Lead candidate ACU401 reached up to 40-fold higher frontal cortex exposure at 24 hours versus ACU234 alone; at least 14-fold for other constructs.
- Study reported no hematological safety signals in cynomolgus monkeys, reducing concern about anemia risk from transferrin receptor targeting.
- Results support advancing an EBD construct toward clinical trials, aiming to lower required dose and enable low-volume delivery devices.
