Ambroxol

University College London · Parkinson's disease
Priority 2
Mid-stage completed completed

Mechanism-led repurposing program that keeps the Parkinson's pipeline from being only antibody and device narratives.

Mechanism
glucocerebrosidase support / lysosomal modulation
Modality
small molecule repurposing
Next catalyst
Whether clinical and biomarker read-throughs justify a larger disease-modification push.

Mid-stage completed completed

Parkinson's program with direct mechanistic relevance to alpha-synuclein biology rather than only symptomatic management.

Mechanism
alpha-synuclein misfolding inhibition
Modality
small molecule
Next catalyst
Mostly interpretive now, but still important for understanding how far small-molecule alpha-syn strategies can go.
