Abstract

Finding an effective therapy able to slow Neurocognitive Disorder’s (NCD) progression represents an ambitious purpose of biomedical research. In June 2021, the Food and Drug Administration approved Aducanumab for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease – the most common cause of dementia worldwide [1]. This drug is a monoclonal antibody that would be cause amyloid-β plaques reduction in the brain [2].
