Most of the associations we saw between menopause and tau protein occurred in the context of high amyloid, now a large portion of the older population do accumulate amyloid as they get older — it’s not that uncommon.

Usually if you’ve a combination of beta-amyloid and tau, then you would typically develop cognitive decline within a few years, what we found is women who have early menopause or have a very late use of hormone therapy might be at higher risk, but only if they were already on the Alzheimer’s disease continuum, with elevated levels of amyloid.

The ADDF applauds the design of the TRAILBLAZER-ALZ trial, which is a mark of great progress in the Alzheimer’s field, promising more treatments to come. We look forward to reviewing the phase 3 data later this year, amyloid-clearing drugs, such as these, are one part of the solution, but there remains a pressing need to develop a new generation of drugs targeting all aspects of the biology of aging that can be combined to address the full array of underlying pathologies that contribute to the disease.

I like to say the amyloid is like the match, and the tangles are like brush fires that propagate and spread over decades, and along the way you're triggering big forest fires, that's neuroinflammation.

It's all about hitting the right person with the right drug, at the right time in the course of their disease, many people may not know this, but after 40 years old, just about all of us start to build up the initiating pathology of Alzheimer's, which is amyloid plaque in the brain and the neurofibrillary tangles.

The most interesting aspect of the study is that APOE4 differentiated women from men, it's possible that APOE4 either increases amyloid burden in women more than men. Or, perhaps, once amyloid accumulates, it leads to a fast cascade of pathology and neurodegenration in women versus men.

Having high cholesterol may not cause Alzheimer's, but it presses the fast-forward button on the disease pathology and cognitive decline, there's also a relationship between diabetes and the development of amyloid pathology.

The FDA is totally switching gears over the last six months and approving this drug on the basis of a theory relating to the surrogate marker of amyloid plaques that we, as an advisory committee back in November, were told to not consider, if The FDA allows companies to get drugs approved on the basis of trials that are stopped early, trials that are reanalyzed, that sets a precedent.

Marc actually tried out for aducanumab [trials] twice but he flunked because he did too well on his memory tests, we knew he had Alzheimer’s and he was building up amyloid plaques in the brain and had an increased genetic risk for Alzheimer’s.

In all studies in which it was evaluated, however, Aduhelm consistently and very convincingly reduced the level of amyloid plaques in the brain in a dose - and time-dependent fashion, it is expected that the reduction in amyloid plaque will result in a reduction in clinical decline.

This was the closest to the finish line and early results showed not only could we improve cognitive function but also get rid of amyloid in the brain, this was the most hopeful thing we had -- in fact I have patients who are in the study, patients that are waiting to get into the trials.Read More.

Most studies carried out till now were targeting the very late steps of this whole multi-step process, and we thought, ‘Let’s look at the very early steps and maybe we’ll have more chances to modulate this pathway,’ we found that was not only the case for amyloid plaques, but that it also worked in this animal model for memory.

In an ideal world, you want to take a 78-year-old and say, I think in your brain amyloid is contributing to 20 percent of your cognitive problems, so I’ll give you an anti-amyloid therapy. You also have tau proteins contributing to about 35 percent of your problems, and so on, you’d want to design a therapeutic regimen based on the different components and their contributions to that patient’s disease.

Although a very interesting paper, I don't think we need to worry excessively, this form of( human growth hormone) treatment stopped 20 years ago and there is no evidence from this paper or any other work I am aware of that any other form of treatment would result in exposure to amyloid.
