Beyond Amyloid: Small Molecule Inflammasome Modulators

2:30 pm - Thursday 5th February 2026

  • Showing that inflammasome modulating small molecule reverses memory loss even with amyloid still present, opening a non amyloid treatment path and diversifying therapeutic risk after 30 years of single target focus
  • Leveraging blood biomarkers like p Tau217 to provide objective read outs of anti inflammatory efficacy, enabling faster, smaller proof of concept studies
  • Delivering orally bioavailable small molecules that bypass blood-brain barrier hurdles faced by antibodies, simplifying dosing and improving long term patient adherence
