Quick Glance: Alzheimer's Drug Uptake Hindered by Doctors' Skepticism in US
- The first drug to slow the progression of Alzheimer's, Leqembi by Eisai and Biogen, is facing resistance in the US from doctors who believe the treatment is futile.
- The requirements of Leqembi, such as additional diagnostic tests, twice-monthly infusions, and regular brain scans, have led to slow adoption as many doctors express concerns about efficacy, cost, and risks.
- Despite FDA approval and proven benefits in clinical trials, many doctors still have reservations about Leqembi, hindering the widespread use of the drug.
- The companies behind Leqembi are working to improve physician and patient education to increase acceptance of the medication, aiming to treat 100,000 patients by 2026.
