Anti-amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) immunotherapy was developed to reduce amyloid plaque pathology and slow cognitive decline during progression of Alzheimer's disease. Efficient amyloid clearance has been proven in clinical trials testing anti-Aβ antibodies, by their impact on cognitive endpoints correlating with the extent of amyloid removal. However, treatment is associated with adverse side effects, such as oedema and haemorrhages, which are potentially linked to the induced immune response. To improve ...
