About this study
In plain language
This study collects health records, patient test results, and insurance claims for people with Medicare who have early Alzheimer's disease. It studies antibody treatments that target amyloid beta, a protein linked to Alzheimer's, under Medicare's rules for coverage.
The Anti-Aβ mAb CED Study is a prospective, longitudinal coverage with evidence development (CED) study using clinical data, patient assessments, and administrative claims data of the Medicare population, conducted in accordance to the National Coverage Determination (NCD) on Monoclonal Antibodies Directed Against Amyloid for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- You have Medicare.
- You have mild memory or thinking problems due to Alzheimer's disease, or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's disease.
- Tests confirm signs of amyloid beta, a protein linked to Alzheimer's disease.
Who can't join
Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.
Official eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Medicare patients with a clinical diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild AD dementia, both with confirmed presence of amyloid beta pathology consistent with AD. Exclusion Criteria: * none
