New Alzheimer’s drug slows disease by a third – BBC News

Experts said we were now "on the cusp" of drugs being available, something that had recently seemed "impossible".

The company Eli Lilly has reported its drug – donanemab – slows the pace of Alzheimer’s by about a third.

However two volunteers, and possibly a third, died as a result of dangerous swelling in the brain.
