About Azeliragon

Azeliragon, also known as TTP488, is a novel orally active small-molecule antagonist of RAGE. A broad range of human pathologic and experimental biologic investigation suggests that RAGE activation contributes to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. Sustained Amyloid-β interactions with RAGE at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and in neuronal and microglial cells, play potentially major roles in amyloid plaque formation, neuroinflammation and chronic neural dysfunction – all hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease.
