Market Dynamics

industry overview logo Industry Overview

The biopharmaceutical industry focused on Alzheimer's disease is highly competitive. The need for effective treatments is significant due to the aging global population. The industry is characterized by high research and development costs, regulatory hurdles, and the potential for high rewards for successful therapies.

Positioning

Acumen is positioned as a company specializing in targeting toxic soluble Au03b2Os, a specific approach within the broader Alzheimer's disease treatment landscape. Its competitive advantage lies in the selectivity of its antibody for Au03b2Os, potentially leading to fewer side effects than other amyloid-targeting therapies.

Total Addressable Market (TAM)

The global Alzheimer's disease market is estimated to reach hundreds of billions of dollars. Acumen, with its specific approach, could capture a significant portion of this TAM if ACU193 is successful.
