Leah Croll, MD, Assistant Professor of Clinical Neurology at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, offered insight to ABC News on phase III clinical trial results for Lecanemab, a monoclonal antibody that helps remove amyloid-beta clumps. The results, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed the medication slowed the rate of cognitive decline in participants in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
