Enigma Biomed in License Agreement with AbbVie for Novel 4R Tau PET Imaging Biomarkers

 Enigma Biomedical Group - USA (EBG-USA) today announced it has signed an exclusive license and option agreement with AbbVie for the development and potential commercialization of AbbVie’s next-generation F18 PET imaging biomarkers to assess the presence of four-repeat (4R) tau protein in patients with suspected neurodegenerative disease.

The 4R tau PET imaging biomarkers hold great promise as important new tools in advancing the understanding of neurodegenerative diseases linked to misfolded 4R tau protein, including progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD).

The agreement permits EBG-USA to evaluate AbbVie’s next-generation F18 PET imaging biomarkers. During the initial evaluation period, EBG-USA and AbbVie will collaborate with EBG-USA’s academic and pharmaceutical partner network to validate the preclinical and clinical PET ligands. If the evaluations are favorable, EBG-USA has the option to negotiate an exclusive license agreement with AbbVie for the PET ligands.
