P21 (P021)

Neurotrophic

Also known as: P021, Ac-DGGL-A(adamantyl-Gly)-NH2, CNTF-derived neurotrophic peptidomimetic

Tier 3, Preclinical only

Evidence is limited to animal or in-vitro work. No human pharmacokinetics. Any human dose in circulation is extrapolated, and extrapolation across species routinely fails.

Half-life
Not established

No measured pharmacokinetic half-life located in primary literature. The adamantyl modification is described as improving stability/BBB penetration but a quantified half-life was not found.

Dosing
No established dose

Preclinical only. Rodent studies dose by mg/kg (not human microgram doses); no human dosing exists. Keep any figures as animal mg/kg from source papers, not translated to human mcg.

Regulatory status
Preclinical investigational compound. Not approved anywhere. No published human Phase I/II/III trials.
Evidence base
animal only · confidence: low

Research record is preclinical and concentrated in the Iqbal/Kazim group (transgenic AD mouse models, e.g. 3xTg-AD). Positive neurogenesis/BDNF and cognitive findings but essentially single-lineage and unreplicated independently; no human data.

Storage

Lyophilised: General peptide convention only (no compound-specific data).

Reconstituted: General peptide convention only (no compound-specific data).

Safety

No human safety data. Preclinical only; do not infer human dosing or safety.
