NS101 is anti FAM19A5 antibody expected to play as a synapse organizer and reversing synapse dysfunction in various neurological diseases
Placebo (i.e. fake drug without active pharmaceutical ingredient) of NS101
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability)
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of repeated administration of NS101 compared to placebo in patients with semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA), a subtype of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). \<primary efficacy endpoint\> The incidence, causality, and severity of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs), and serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs) by group.
