The ABATE Study
Purpose
The ABATE Study is testing an investigational vaccine for Alzheimer’s disease in people with Down Syndrome. We want to see if the vaccine is safe. We also want to see if it slows the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in people with Down syndrome.
The study treatment, ACI-24.060, is a new vaccine which is not yet on the market. It may help to remove amyloid in the brain. This could slow down memory loss and thinking problems.

You may be able to join this study if you:
- Have Down syndrome
- Be between 35 and 50 years old
