AcuraStem (acurastem.com) is a patient-based, drug development company pioneering drug discovery and ultimately how treatments are developed for neurodegenerative diseases—including sporadic ALS and FTD.

Enabled by our ground-breaking iNeuroRx® technology platform - AcuraStem has discovered and is now advancing drug candidates that promise to strongly impact disease progression for most patients, including those for whom the genetic cause of their disease is unknown (i.e. sporadic ALS and FTD patients). 

The causes of neurodegenerative diseases are complex, and genetically defined forms of disease (e.g. C9ORF72-ALS and FTD) only account for a small percentage of cases. Thus, many scientists didn’t believe it was possible to develop a single effective treatment that could work broadly for all patients. But AcuraStem has shown with its extremely promising therapeutic programs for ALS and FTD that it can be done.
