This study looked at adults with early <a href=\"https:\/\/allesleypharmacy.co.uk\/pharmacy\/product\/aricept\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"31\" title=\"Aricept\">Alzheimer<\/a>&#8217;s disease who don&#8217;t carry a specific gene called apolipoprotein E \u03b54 or carry only one copy of it. The data was presented at a medical conference in Berlin. The study found that patients who took lecanemab, a medication for Alzheimer&#8217;s, for up to 48 months continued to see benefits. These benefits were compared to a group of patients who did not take the medication. The treatment also reduced the risk of the disease getting worse by 32% over the same period. Robert Sands, a medical expert from Eisai, said that these findings add to the growing evidence that lecanemab can help eligible patients. He emphasized the importance of long-term data to better understand the effects of continuous treatment. Eisai is committed to researching and innovating to find solutions for Alzheimer&#8217;s disease. In the EU and UK, lecanemab is approved for patients with mild memory problems or mild dementia due to Alzheimer&#8217;s who don&#8217;t carry the specific gene or carry only one copy of it. Common side effects include reactions to the infusion, brain swelling or bleeding, falls, headaches, and other related brain conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eisai, a pharmaceutical company, has shared new clinical data from a study called Clarity AD.
