Alto Neuroscience highlighted a new Nature Medicine publication showing that pramipexole significantly reduces anhedonia in patients with mood disorders. The independent, placebo-controlled trial by Lund University found a significant effect on the primary endpoint (Hedges’ g=0.62, p=0.006), with benefits sustained through six months of open-label treatment. These findings reinforce the scientific basis for Alto’s lead asset ALTO-207, a combination of pramipexole and ondansetron designed to mitigate the nausea that limits pramipexole use.
