Company

Alterity Therapeutics Limited

ASX:ATH

Clinical-stage biotech developing disease-modifying drugs for neurodegenerative disease. Lead candidate ATH434 is an oral small molecule designed to reduce excess iron accumulation in the brain and inhibit aggregation of alpha-synuclein, the protein implicated in Multiple System Atrophy and related synucleinopathies. It targets the underlying biology of age-related neurodegeneration rather than symptoms, which is the longevity-relevant part. ATH434 has completed a randomised placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial in MSA plus an open-label Phase 2 in advanced MSA, and the company is working toward a pivotal Phase 3. It is a single-asset, pre-revenue developer, so exposure is binary on that program.
