New treatments that target the protein tau are beginning to enter human clinical trials. While tau-related therapies hold great promise for AD, clinical trials focusing on pure tauopathies are appealing because these diseases do not exhibit concurrent amyloid pathology. Pure 4 microtubule binding repeat (4R) tauopathies (4RT) include corticobasal degeneration …
