(Nasdaq: TLSA), a biotechnology company specializing in breakthrough immunomodulation therapies, has recently announced several key developments in its research and clinical trials. The company's lead development candidate, intranasal foralumab, a fully human, anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, has shown prolonged benefits in sustaining tissue homeostasis and mitigating side effects associated with GLP-1 agonists discontinuation.
In a significant milestone for Alzheimer’s disease treatment, Tiziana has successfully dosed the first patient with moderate Alzheimer's disease using intranasal foralumab. This marks a crucial step forward in the company's clinical development program for the disease.

This expansion underscores the company's commitment to advancing innovative treatments for neurodegenerative diseases.
Furthermore, Tiziana has secured funding from the ALS Association to conduct a clinical trial for its innovative intranasal foralumab, aimed at treating ALS. This trial will explore the drug’s safety and early-stage efficacy, with hopes of slowing disease progression in ALS patients.
The company has been awarded a $4 million grant by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study the effects of anti-CD3 in Alzheimer’s disease, highlighting the potential of Tiziana's research in addressing complex neurological conditions.
In addition to these advancements, Tiziana has reported positive results from a combination study of its anti-CD3 antibody with semaglutide, a GLP-1 agonist, demonstrating the anti-inflammatory potential of this combination.
Tiziana Life Sciences has also regained compliance with the Nasdaq listing minimum bid price rule, ensuring its continued presence on the Nasdaq Stock Market. This achievement reflects the company's ongoing efforts to strengthen its financial and operational standing.
