ProMIS Neurosciences to Present at the 10th Annual Neurodegenerative Drug Development Summit
24 Março 2022 - 8:00AM
ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (TSX: PMN) (OTCQB: ARFXF), a
biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of
therapeutics targeting
misfolded proteins such as
toxic oligomers implicated in the development of neurodegenerative
diseases, announced today that it will be presenting at the
upcoming 10th Annual Neurodegenerative Drug Development Summit, to
be held in Boston, MA, March 28-30, 2022.
ProMIS Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Neil Cashman, will deliver
an oral presentation entitled: “Abeta oligomers in
Alzheimer Disease: Target Engagement and Target
Distraction”, on
Tuesday, March 29, 2022, at 3 PM local time at the Boston Park
Plaza Hotel.
Much scientific data has implicated misfolded oligomers as the
toxic molecular species of amyloid beta (Abeta) relevant to
Alzheimer’s disease. However, using conventional methods, it has
proven difficult to selectively target oligomers while sparing
other species – including monomers and fibrils – which “distract” a
therapeutic antibody from its primary target. Immune recognition of
Abeta fibrils can also lead to dose-limiting adverse effects. In
his presentation, Dr. Cashman will discuss the use of Collective
CoordinatesTM, a proprietary computational algorithm, to design
conformational epitopes that specifically target oligomers, while
sparing monomers and fibrils from immune recognition.
Dr. Cashman’s presentation will be available on the ProMIS
website (www.promisneurosciences.com) at the conclusion of the
meeting. For more information about the meeting please consult the

About ProMIS NeurosciencesProMIS Neurosciences,
Inc. is a development stage biotechnology company focused on
discovering and developing therapeutics selectively targeting toxic
misfolded oligomers implicated in the development and progression
of neurodegenerative diseases, in particular Alzheimer’s disease
(AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson’s disease
(PD). The Company’s proprietary target discovery engine is based on
the use of two complementary computational modeling techniques. The
Company applies its molecular dynamics, computational discovery
platform -ProMIS™ and Collective Coordinates - to predict novel
targets known as Disease Specific Epitopes on the molecular surface
of misfolded proteins. ProMIS is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario,
with offices in Cambridge, Massachusetts. ProMIS is listed on the
Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol PMN, and on the OTCQB
Venture Market under the symbol ARFXF
