Layer-4  Frequently Asked Questions

Are Kurve
products safe?

Kurve’s intranasal insulin (Intrulin™) has an excellent safety record to date, documented in several published clinical studies involving over 300 patients (175 with Alzheimer’s) using the product in controlled trials. In all of these studies, the product had a good safety profile and was well tolerated. Further, long-term safety data is expected from the upcoming Kurve Intrulin™ Phase III trial in Mild Cognitive Impairment.

How is Kurve’s approach different from that of currently-prescribed drugs for Alzheimer’s disease?

Kurve is developing Alzheimer’s drugs that modify the disease itself instead of just treating the symptoms. Current treatment options — known as cholinesterase inhibitors — are drugs that can relieve some of the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease but do not modify the disease itself. If they provide a benefit, it tends to be for short periods, approximately three to six months, before the disease progression continues.

What does your technology mean for the future of neurodegenerative diseases?

Our hope is that our tech-powered CNS disorder treatments will bring much-needed change to the neurodegenerative disease treatment landscape. Kurve’s goal is to eliminate suffering by providing disease-modifying treatments to patients who do not have effective treatment options. While we cannot predict the future, we firmly believe we can make a difference and improve the lives of countless patients.

Is Kurve developing its own drug formulations? Will you partner with pharmaceutical companies?

Yes, we are a medtech and specialty drug product company. We are developing our own patented intranasal insulin and will be developing additional formulations. We encourage pharmaceutical companies to reach out and partner with us. Need and opportunity are abundant for formulation development for the millions of people suffering from neurodegenerative diseases.
