This database is a repository of normal genetic variability, designed to be a tool for researchers who study neurodegenerative disease. It contains whole-exome sequencing results from nearly 500 ...

Score another one for amyloid immunotherapy. The anti-pyroglutamated amyloid antibody donanemab has posted positive top-line results in the Phase 3 Trailblazer-Alz2 study, according to an Eli Lilly ...

Eisai and Biogen yesterday announced positive topline results from the Phase 3 Clarity trial of their anti-amyloid antibody lecanemab. The drug slowed decline on the primary endpoint, CDR-SB, by 27 ...

In a draft decision, the CMS proposed covering Aduhelm only in clinical trials. Most Alzheimer’s researchers support the proposal. Some challenged its practicality. The manufacturers of the other anti ...

Will Biogen’s aducanumab become the first drug approved to slow progression of Alzheimer’s disease? Biogen’s licensing application for the biologic ran into headwinds at a U.S. Food and Drug ...

Buoyed by data crediting amyloid removal with ever-so-slightly slowed cognitive decline, many scientists are now optimistic about the prospects for anti-amyloid immunotherapy. Four “-mabs”—of the ...

The top-line results last September from Eisai’s Phase 3 trial of the anti-amyloid antibody lecanemab galvanized the field, but scientists said they needed to see the data before passing judgement.

If enhancing memory with light and sound seems futuristic, then welcome to the future. Or so some scientists say. Results from four early stage clinical trials on mild Alzheimer’s disease were ...

On Tuesday September 10, Francisco Lopera died of cancer at his home in Medellin, Colombia. He was 73, and only just beginning to see his life’s work come to fruition. In fact, Lopera still had much ...

Lecanemab binds protofibrils more tightly than fibrils, perhaps explaining lower ARIA rate. Use of plasma biomarkers brings down trial screening cost. Lecanemab has been selected for the first amyloid ...
