PROPRIETARY PAN-AMYLOID TARGETING TO TRANSFORM TREATMENT & DIAGNOSIS

A NEW SCIENTIFIC PATH FORWARD

Our proprietary pan-amyloid targeting agents are capable of diagnosing and treating all types of systemic amyloidosis.

Attralus is focused on targeting the underlying pathology in all systemic amyloid diseases, with the goal of developing potential treatments for many subtypes of amyloidosis.

Pioneering PAR Therapeutics

Attralus is advancing the amyloidosis treatment paradigm by developing first-in-class therapies using our proprietary pan-amyloid removal (PAR) technology. With our differentiated approach, Attralus designs novel biologics to target all types of toxic amyloid with high specificity and superb binding properties to stimulate the immune system to remove amyloid. Our PAR therapeutics are unique in their ability to target, engage and remove all types of toxic amyloid.

PAR Therapeutics Target, Engage and Remove Amyloid

With our differentiated approach to pan-amyloid removal (PAR), Attralus designs novel biologics to target all types of toxic amyloid with high specificity and exquisite binding properties to stimulate the immune system to remove amyloid. The unique capabilities that enable us to develop novel PAR therapeutics include:

Our leading-edge capabilities for novel PAR therapeutics

PAR-Peptide

Our proprietary amyloid binding peptide has a unique structure providing highly specific binding to multiple accessible sites on disease-causing amyloid deposits. Exquisite binding characteristics enable the peptide to target amyloid throughout the body to deliver the Fc to stimulate removal of deposits.

Fc-Medicated Phagoctosis

 A bioactive IgG1 Fc-fusion region, a key component of PAR therapeutics, actively engages the innate immune system to signal macrophages to engulf and remove the amyloid through phagocytosis – following the therapeutic binding to the amyloid.


Modular Biologics Design

 Modular protein design allows the combination of our proprietary amyloid binding peptide with a variety of different biomolecules, offering the potential for multiple diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for the detection, targeting and removal of amyloid.

 

Proprietary Pan-Amyloid Diagnostic: First Amyloidosis-Specific Imaging Agent

The same pan-amyloid targeting mechanism is used in AT-01, our imaging agent. AT-01 is a novel polybasic peptide radiotracer under clinical investigation for whole-body amyloid detection in diverse types of amyloidosis.

  • AT-01 is designed to be the first amyloidosis-specific imaging agent capable of detecting all amyloid types, in key organs, providing a complete picture of disease burden and enabling quantification, prediction and monitoring.
  • AT-01 has the potential to inform, de-risk and accelerate clinical development of our therapies.

It also provides the opportunity to expand the diagnosed patient population, even in asymptomatic patients.
There are no FDA-approved imaging agents as diagnostics for systemic amyloidosis. Patients typically undergo a multitude of diagnostic tests, none of which can visualize the extent and localization of amyloid deposition across the entire body.
