An NBC News article noted the FDA’s recent clearance of the Alzheimer's drug Leqembi, the first of its kind to receive full regulatory approval. However, it comes with a strong safety warning about potentially life-threatening side effects. Leqembi, developed by Japanese drugmaker Eisai and U.S.-based Biogen, targets beta-amyloid, a protein believed to be an underlying cause of Alzheimer's. In a phase 3 clinical trial, the drug demonstrated a 27% slowing of disease progression over 18 months.
