Dr. Merit Cudkowicz, Renowned ALS Expert at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Joins Klotho Neurosciences’ Scientific Advisory Board
09 Décembre 2024 - 5:00PM
Klotho Neurosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:
KLTO), a
specialty biotechnology company focused on developing cell and gene
therapies for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer’s and
Parkinson’s disease is proud to announce the appointment of Dr.
Merit Cudkowicz, MD, MSc, to its Scientific Advisory Board (SAB).
Dr. Cudkowicz is the Chair of Neurology at MGH, Director of the
Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for ALS, and is the Julieanne Dorn
Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School. A member of the
National Academy of Medicine, Dr. Cudkowicz has been a leading
clinician in promoting and devising more efficient methods for the
development of therapies for people with neurological disorders
such as ALS. She is one of the founders and co-directors of the
Northeast ALS (NEALS) Consortium, a group of over 150 clinical
sites in the United States and Canada dedicated to performing
collaborative, academic-led clinical trials in ALS subjects.
In welcoming Dr. Cudkowicz to the SAB, Dr. Joseph Sinkule, the
Founder, CEO, and Chairman of Klotho Neurosciences commented: “Dr.
Cudkowicz is clearly a world-renowned clinician and authority in
the field of ALS, which is also often referred to as Lou Gehrig's
disease. We are honored to have her join our SAB and help guide us
in clinical trial design and execution. We firmly believe that the
Company’s gene therapy approach could be an important advance in
the treatment of ALS using our patent-protected product candidate
expressing the Klotho gene transcribed protein called ‘s-KL’ or
“secreted Klotho.”
In responding, Dr. Cudkowicz expressed her appreciation for the
invitation to join the SAB, stating that “It is vitally important
that a company like Klotho Neurosciences receives the full support
and guidance from members of their SAB to maximize the opportunity
to expeditiously develop a safe and effective new treatment for ALS
based on the Company’s proprietary s-KL. There is a clear and
absolute urgent need for new and effective treatments for this
devastating, universally-fatal disease, and I hope to be able to
assist Klotho Neurosciences along the path to success.”
