Embodiment 1

[0645] Example 1-Clinical study of creizumab (a humanized anti-Aβ monoclonal antibody) in the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease

[0646] Research Design and Objectives

[0647] A randomized, double-blind, phase II trial was conducted using placebo-controlled to evaluate the use of the humanized monoclonal anti-amyloid beta ("Aβ") antibody creizumab in patients diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Effects in Patients with Murray's Disease (AD). Patients included in the study were between the ages of 50 and 80 at screening and had a diagnosis of probable AD according to the following NINCDS-ADRDA criteria: Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 18 to 26 points, Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) score less than 6, completion of 6 years of education (or excellent work history consistent with exclusion of mental retardation or other pervasive developmental disabilities). Additionally, for those patients receiving concurrent AD therapy (suc...

Embodiment 2

[0659] Example 2-Clinical study of creizumab (a humanized anti-Aβ monoclonal antibody) in the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease and the impact on amyloid load

[0660] Research Design and Objectives

[0661] A randomized, double-blind, phase II trial was conducted using placebo-controlled to evaluate the use of the humanized monoclonal anti-amyloid beta ("Aβ") antibody creizumab in patients diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Effects in Patients with Murray's Disease (AD). Patients included in the study were between the ages of 50 and 80 at screening and had a diagnosis of probable AD according to the following NINCDS-ADRDA criteria: Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 18 to 26 points, Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) score less than 6, completion of 6 years of education (or excellent work history consistent with exclusion of mental retardation or other pervasive developmental disabilities). Only patients with positive florbetapi...

Embodiment 3

[0668] Example 3 - Monocytes associated with therapeutic response in the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease in a clinical study of creizumab, a humanized anti-Aβ monoclonal antibody The study of nucleotide polymorphism

[0669] Research Design and Objectives

[0670] A randomized, double-blind, phase II trial was conducted using placebo-controlled to evaluate the use of the humanized monoclonal anti-amyloid beta ("Aβ") antibody creizumab in patients diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. Effects in Patients with Murray's Disease (AD).
