Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ABOS

We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel disease-modifying approach targeting what we believe to be a key underlying cause of Alzheimer's disease, or AD. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease of the brain that leads to loss of memory and cognitive functions and ultimately results in death. Alzheimer's disease is currently estimated to affect approximately seven million people in the United States and approximately 55 million people worldwide and was the sixth-leading cause of death among individuals aged 65 and older in 2022 in the United States. Due to the aging population, patient populations in the United States impacted by AD are expected to grow to approximately 13 million people by 2050 without effective preventative measures or safe and effective disease-modifying treatments. By 2050, healthcare costs for AD in the United States alone are estimated to near $1 trillion.
