For those of you that don't know, Prothena is the company running the NEOD001 trial

NEOD001 is a humanized monoclonal antibody designed to neutralize and clear soluble and insoluble amyloid aggregates in patients with AL Amyloidosis. Simply put, the hopes are that the drug will remove existing amyloid deposits from the body!
