== Clinical research ==

=== Nasal administration ===

==== Phase 1 ====
Nasal foralumab was studied at the ], at the ] Center. Twenty-seven (9 per group) ] received either nasal foralumab (10ug, 50ug, or 250ug daily for 5 days) or they received nasal ]. Nasal foralumab induced ] ] and reduced CD4+ ]. Foralumab induced LAP, TIGIT, and ] ] molecules. The treatment was well tolerated by all subjects. The researchers concluded that the Immune effects of nasal foralumab were optimal at the 50ug dose.

==== Phase 2 - Non-active secondary progressive - Multiple sclerosis ====
Nasal foralumab is currently being studied in the United States in a ], ] ]-controlled, multicenter dose-ranging study in a nasal formulation in patients with non-active secondary progressive ] (SPMS). The two primary ]s are 1) To determine the safety and tolerability of 50 μg/dose and 100 μg/dose of foralumab nasal compared to placebo and 2) To investigate the effect of foralumab relative to placebo on the change from baseline PBR06]]-] (PET) scans for ] activation, after 12 weeks (3) months of study treatment.<ref name=":0" />

===== Phase 2 - Non-active secondary progressive - Alzheimer's disease =====

===== Phase 2 - COVID-19 =====
Nasal foralumab was studied in 39 patients with mild to moderate ]. They were randomized into 1) ] {standard of care plus a placebo}, 2) 100 μg/dose of nasal foralumab and 3) 100 μg/dose of nasal foralumab plus ].

=== Intravenous administration ===

Intravenous foralumab was studied in 39 patients with confirmed active ] of at least 6 months duration. The patients were given intravenous infusion daily for 5 days.
