Prothena Corporation plc (Nasdaq: PRTA) Prothena is a global biotechnology company seeking to fundamentally alter the course of progressive diseases. We are a late-stage clinical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel protein immunotherapies for the treatment of diseases that involve protein misfolding and inflammatory cell adhesion disorders. Our team has a recognized track record both for profound scientific discoveries and for the development of therapeutics that have become leading commercial products in their respective therapeutic categories. Prothena`s pipeline focuses on therapeutic monoclonal antibodies directed specifically to disease-causing proteins and our antibody-based product candidates target a number of potential indications, including AL amyloidosis (NEOD001), Parkinson’s disease and other related synucleinopathies (PRX002), ATTR amyloidosis (PRX004), and novel cell adhesion targets involved in psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and other inflammatory diseases (PRX003). Prior to December 2012, Prothena’s business operated as part of Elan Corporation, plc. Prothena’s business consists of a substantial portion of Elan’s former drug discovery business platform. After the separation from Elan and the related distribution of our ordinary shares to Elan’s stockholders, our ordinary shares began trading on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “PRTA” on December 21, 2012.
