A new potential treatment for PSP and CBD is undergoing an initial clinical trial.

Tau is a microtubule-associated protein, and abnormal tau function has been proposed to play a role in the development and progression of primary four repeat tauopathies, CBD and PSP.

The new compound, TPI-287, is a stabilizer of microtubule dynamics, and the stabilization of microtubules is hypothesized to compensate for the loss of tau function in primary four repeat tauopathies.

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and tolerability of intravenous (IV) infusions of TPI-287 in patients with four repeat tauopathies (4RT), CBD or PSP.

The study will be recruiting PSP and CBD patients in two locations: the University of California San Franciso (UCSF) and the University of Alabama in Birmingham.
