PrevenTRON
PrevenTRON is a clinical study that will be testing if a study medication called Trontinemab can slow down or stop the development of symptoms related to Alzheimer’s disease in people who do not have problems with their memory or thinking. Trontinemab works by reducing the build-up of a protein called amyloid in the brain.
