#Biogen Inc will pause or discontinue at least four studies of experimental drugs to focus on its second #Alzheimer's treatment, Leqembi, which is on track to be approved in July.

Need to see the paper/data to know how this stacks up against the benefits:risks associated with lecanemab. Looks like the efficacy claims will be very similar. But, is donanemab going to be safer? endpts.com/lillys-alzheim…

The science still has a ways to go before we’ll know if specific dietary changes can alter the gut #microbiome and modify its influence on the brain in the right ways, but it raises the possibility a stool sample may determine a greater risk for AD. directorsblog.nih.gov/2023/06/27/cha…
