PROCLAIM Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment for frontotemporal dementia, which is a progressive brain disorder. The treatment is called PR006 and it will be given to patients through a series of injections. The goal of the trial is to see if PR006 is safe and effective in treating frontotemporal dementia.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 30-85 with frontotemporal dementia due to progranulin gene mutations. Participants must be living in the community, not dependent on a walker or wheelchair, have up-to-date vaccinations and cancer screenings, and test negative for tuberculosis. They need a reliable informant to report on their health status.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests LY3884963's safety and its effect on protein levels related to dementia when administered into the spinal fluid. Optional treatments include Sirolimus and Prednisone. Over five years, patients will be monitored through various doses of LY3884963 for changes in biomarkers and clinical outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the injection site, immune system responses due to drug components like corticosteroids or sirolimus, as well as general risks associated with anesthesia required during administration.
