Kyunghee University Hospital at Gangdong, Seoul, Korea, Republic of (South).
Background: Recent preclinical studies have revealed a significant reduction in amyloid-β plaques and pro-inflammatory cytokines in Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse models following low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT). This phase II, multicenter, prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial (NCT05635968, funding from Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power: Grant No. A21IP11) aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of whole-brain LDRT in patients with AD.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLecanemab is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody binding with high affinity to protofibrils of amyloid-beta (Aβ) protein. In 18-month clinical studies, lecanemab has been shown to reduce a complex group of protein interactions associated with early symptomatic Alzheimer's disease (AD) and slow decline on clinical endpoints of cognition and function for up to 30 months to date. In prior research, results from the phase 2 study gap period (no study drug treatment) between the end of the study core and the beginning of retreatment in the open-label extension (OLE) provides evidence regarding the need for continued maintenance therapy beyond 18 months.

Here we present the results of a phase 2a proof-of-concept trial (n = 49) to further define the potential of Lomecel-B in patients with mild AD dementia.
Methods: This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled 45-week trial (ClinicalTrials.
