Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., today announced it has completed a first closing of a $20 million Series A financing led by BVF Partners L.P. (BVF), a leading life sciences investment firm which manages the Biotechnology Value Fund, L.P. NeuroVentures Fund, L.P., Praxis Technologies, Glynn Ventures and private investors also participated in the closing.
Acumen will use the Series A proceeds to fund preclinical and potentially early clinical development of ACU-193, a monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to and captures soluble oligomers of the amyloid-beta peptide. ACU-193 could demonstrate clinical proof of concept in Alzheimer's disease by 2016.
