Alector, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALEC), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering immuno-neurology, today announced the presentation of a poster on baseline characteristics for the global INVOKE-2 Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of AL002 in slowing disease progression in individuals with early Alzheimer’s disease (AD) at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference® 2024 (AAIC®). The conference is being held online and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from July 28 – August 1, 2024.

"The baseline characteristics of the patients in INVOKE-2 are important for assessing the quality of our double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of AL002, the most advanced TREM2-activating candidate in clinical development for early Alzheimer’s disease,” said Gary Romano, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer of Alector. “We are pleased that the baseline clinical assessments confirm that the INVOKE-2 trial enrolled the intended population of participants with early Alzheimer’s disease, allowing us to test Alector’s hypothesis that treatment with this first-in-class TREM2 agonist may slow disease progression.”
