Comment: Latozinemab (AL001) is an anti-sortilin 1 (SORT1) monoclonal antibody. It is proposed to elevate progranulin levels by inhibiting the SORT1-mediated degradation pathway for progranulin (PGRN). This mechanism is being investigated as a disease‐modifying therapy for patients with frontotemporal dementia caused by loss-of-function mutations in GRN.
