About the Company

FoundedEmployeesCEOWebsite
2013238Arnon Rosenthalwww.alector.com

Alector, Inc., a late-stage clinical biotechnology company, develops therapies that is focused on counteracting the devastating progression of neurodegenerative diseases. The company’s products under development include Latozinemab (AL001), an investigational human recombinant monoclonal antibody designed to elevate progranulin (PGRN), a protein encoded by the granulin (GRN) gene that regulates lysosomal function, neuronal survival, and inflammation in the brain. Its lead PGRN-elevating candidate is being developed for the potential treatment of frontotemporal dementia with a granulin gene mutation (FTD-GRN) which is caused by heterozygous loss-of-function (LOF) mutations in the GRN gene and results in PGRN haploinsufficiency and is in Phase 3 clinical trial.
