Healey & AMG Center for ALS at Mass General Hospital Brigham in the United States (US), created in partnership with the Network of Excellence for ALS (NEALS). Entry into the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial is competitive, with drug candidates reviewed and selected by expert committees based on scientific merit and evidence of potential benefit in ALS. The goal of the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial is to accelerate the development of potential new ALS therapies. The trial evaluates multiple investigational drugs (Regimens) concurrently under a single framework or master protocol, leveraging shared infrastructure across over 70 participating clinical sites. By streamlining start-up and enrollment processes, it accelerates study execution and delivers results more efficiently. **Regimen I** Regimen I (NUZ-001) includes a randomised, placebo-controlled treatment (RCT) phase followed by an active treatment extension (ATE) phase, both with a 36-week treatment period. Approximately 160 participants with ALS will be randomised to receive either daily NUZ-001 at the recommended Phase 2 dose of 10 mg/kg or placebo at a 3:1 ratio. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of NUZ-001 compared with placebo on ALS disease progression, with secondary objectives including additional measures of disease progression and safety. **Figure 1: Regimen I Study Design** [![Regimen I Study Design](https://mma.prnasia.com/media2/2921208/image1.jpg?p=medium600 "Regimen I Study Design")](https://mma.prnasia.com/media2/2921208/image1.html) Regimen I Study Design Participation in the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial provides Neurizon with access to an established clinical development framework supported by the world’s most highly regarded ALS investigators and leading clinical centres across the US. This infrastructure improves trial efficiency, supports consistent data generation and facilitates ongoing engagement with regulatory authorities, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as the trial progresses. **Professor Merit Cudkowicz, Principal Investigator, HEALEY ALS Platform Trial & Director, Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for ALS, Mass General Brigham, commented:** "We look forward to working with Neurizon on this new regimen in the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial and implementing our updated master protocol. Beginning enrolment is a significant step for the regimen, and would not be possible without the dedication of people living with ALS and their families, collaborators, and our top trials sites." **Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Dr Michael Thurn commented:** "The dosing of the first participant in Regimen I of the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial marks a defining milestone for Neurizon and for NUZ-001. This study represents our registrational trial in ALS – a rigorous, adaptive Phase 2/3 program designed to generate the clinical evidence required to support potential regulatory submissions." "Entry into the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial reflects our scientific data package and the favourable safety and tolerability profile observed in our Phase 1 and Open Label Extension studies. The master protocol structure enables efficient study execution across leading ALS centres in the United States, while maintaining the scientific rigour required at this stage of development." "We are deeply grateful to the participants and their families who commit their time and energy to clinical research, often while navigating the significant challenges associated with living with ALS. For people living with ALS, urgency matters. Through this pivotal study, we are advancing NUZ-001 with scientific discipline, operational focus, and deep respect for the ALS community as we work toward delivering meaningful progress in this devastating disease." This announcement has been authorized for release by the Board of Neurizon Therapeutics Limited. **About Neurizon Therapeutics Limited** Neurizon Therapeutics Limited (ASX: NUZ) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to advancing treatments for neurodegenerative diseases.
