Multisite 14-week prospective double-blind placebo controlled parallel-group randomized clinical trial with 14-week open-label extension at the end of double-blind treatment phase for placebo subjects. Eligible subjects will be randomized within each site in 2:1 ratio to receive either TB006 or placebo treatment.
A key molecular mechanism implicated in ASD is immune dysregulation and unchecked neuroinflammation marked by increased microglial activation. Galectin-3 (Gal-3), a galactoside-binding lectin, is critical to activation of neuroinflammation resulting in the proliferation of microglia.7 Gal-3 has been shown to be elevated in individuals with ASD. To inhibit Gal-3's contribution to neuroinflammation, Truebinding has developed TB006, a neutralizing monoclonal antibody against Gal-3. Our overall hypothesis is that TB006 will significantly improve core and associated behavioral symptoms of ASD and b…

TB006 is a humanized immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) (S228P) type monoclonal antibody that is highly specific and has a high affinity to human Galectin-3 (hGal-3).
