: Roche- "A Study of Gantenerumab in Patients With Prodromal Alzheimer's Disease"
Trials in prodromal AD take a long time. I guess they will all try that with their no workin drugs. Prana is lucky to have the only drug that appears to work.
The Roche study started in Nov 2010 and is expected to complete in April 2015

Gantenerumab (Roche)
Roche is developing gantenerumab, an antibody for the treatment Alzheimer?s disease. The antibody is similar, in concept, to Elan?s (ELN) and Wyeth?s (WYE) bapineuzumab (bapi) as both antibodies target Amyloid beta, a protein which is one of the hallmarks of the disease. Roche advanced gantenerumab to phase I in 2006 and since then completed the accrual of 30 patients. This trial is somewhat atypical for a phase I study because it is a randomized, double blind comparative trial, so there could be signs of efficacy in the data. The market potential for Alzheimer disease is estimated at over $10 billion, however, to date, no drug proved successful in changing the course of the disease. Until recently, antibodies against Amyloid beta were considered a very promising target, however, following disappointing data for bapi, investors? excitement towards this approach waned. Roche is expected to publish data from the phase I trial during the course of 2009.
