摘要

The European Medicines Agency has recommended testing for the ApoE-genotype prior to treatment of Alzheimer’s disease with Lecanemab. The drug approval is limited to patients who are not homozygous for the ApoE epsilon 4 allele. This is to reduce the risk of undesired adverse effects in the patients treated with Lecanemab. With this recommendation for the first time a psychiatric therapy will be genetically informed.
