As the societal and economic burdens of Alzheimer's disease (AD) continue to mount, so does the need for therapies that slow the progression of the illness. Beta amyloid has long been recognized as the pathologic hallmark of AD, and the past decade has seen significant progress in the development of various immunotherapeutic approaches targeting beta amyloid. This paper reviews active and passive approaches aimed at beta amyloid, with a focus on clinical trial data.
随着阿尔茨海默病(AD)的社会和经济负担持续加重,对减缓疾病进展疗法的需求也日益增加。β淀粉样蛋白长期以来一直被认为是AD的病理标志,在过去十年中,针对β淀粉样蛋白的各种免疫治疗方法取得了显著进展。本文综述了针对β淀粉样蛋白的主动和被动方法,并重点关注临床试验数据。
