GUD has two potential paths to AD at this time ...
1. EXELON (now)
2. future drug developments though existing/future partners

I am very much a believer that AD is being poorly tackled at this time - even with the global drugs in the funnel.
I think the future may include opportunities with either antivirals or autoimmune drugs.
More likely in a combination of the two ... with inflammation reduction as a key component. Time will tell.
As R&D continues, there is a real potential to link the gut and the brain, excess iron to the brain via the gut ... and ... viral triggers (e.g. VZV virus/COVID/SARs/ causing latent herpes simplex 1 to activate in the brain and bring on the effects of AD.
Early days - but - I see GUD is sitting as pretty as one can in such partnerships.
I personally think you need to solve gut issues before you really put a dent in brain diseases.
