I don't think mixed results from one or two clinical trials warrants a total pivot (see my first post). But, again, I'm not opposed to exploring novel avenues.

I don't think mixed results from one or two clinical trials warrants a total pivot (see my first post). But, again, I'm not opposed to exploring novel avenues. Anyone who lives long enough will get dementia, so both broad and deep insights are certainly welcome.

- subroutine 4y agoOk, there's more than I knew about. "We found 12 eligible studies in 443 identified records, involving 6736 patients, mean age 71.4 ± 2. We found a small benefit in cognitive outcomes in patients treated with Aβ-mAbs." So there's a small benefit to using antibody treatment. To me suggests that Abeta is a good target, but antibodies are not a sufficient Rx. Have you seen a brain at BRAAK stage 4-6?
