  1. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of SPI-1865 were assessed in mouse and rat model systems. *Statistically significant lowering of the indicated β-amyloid (Aβ) species compared to vehicle-treated animals (P < 0.01). CSF, cerebrospinal fluid. Values are given as the mean ± standard error of the mean.
