NameTarenflurbil
Groups investigational
DescriptionTarenflurbil is an investigational drug that was studied in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease. It is a selective amyloid lowering agent (SALA) that reduces levels of the toxic peptide amyloid beta 42 (Aβ42) in cultured human cells and in animal models. Aβ42 is the primary initiator of neurotoxicity and amyloid plaque development in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. In June 2008 development of the drug for Alzheimer's disease was discontinued. Tarenflurbil has also been used in trials studying the treatment of Prostate Cancer.
