Iron Horse Therapeutics is developing treatments for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) with compounds that modulate the activity of EphA4. Humans with EphA4 mutations that decrease its activity or reduced EphA4 expression levels exhibit prolonged survival and reduced disease severity. Similar results have been demonstrated in ALS mouse and rat animal models.
