Causes
The Stanford Health Care Center for Memory Disorders is encouraged that there is a new treatment option for certain patients with Alzheimer’s disease. On January 6, 2023, the FDA granted accelerated approval for lecanemab (LeqembiTM).
What Causes Alzheimer's Disease?
Although intense investigation has been underway for many years, the causes of Alzheimer's disease are not entirely known. Suspected causes often include the following:
- Age and family history
- Certain genes
- Abnormal protein deposits in the brain
- Other risk and environmental factors
- Immune system problems
Clinical Trials
Open trials refer to studies currently recruiting participants or that may recruit participants in the near future. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but similar studies may open in the future.
