Slow progression with LEQEMBI
In an 18-month study of people with early Alzheimer’s disease, LEQEMBI was proven to slow the progression of early Alzheimer's disease. Even though you cannot stop Alzheimer’s disease from getting worse, you can take steps to slow how fast it progresses. Early treatment with LEQEMBI can help you keep playing the roles you have for longer.
How progression was measured
A tool called the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) scale measured progression by asking people how Alzheimer’s disease impacted different abilities listed below. LEQEMBI was not proven to individually impact each of these abilities.
Remembering
Staying active
Knowing your way around
Completing daily tasks
Problem-solving
Doing activities independently

GO
