Could fighting brain inflammation slow Alzheimer's decline?

NCT ID NCT04795466

Summary

This study aimed to see if anti-inflammatory drugs could help slow cognitive decline in people with early Alzheimer's disease or mild memory problems due to Alzheimer's. It tested one drug in a small group of participants who also showed signs of body-wide inflammation. The trial was stopped early, so only limited results are available.
