EP: 4.The Changing Alzheimer’s Treatment Landscape - how to prepare your practice

Encouraging developments in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other dementias are all around us.

With new treatments coming to market, such as Leqembi (lecanemab), and a pipeline of 140+ agents in development, providers have increasingly powerful weapons to use against AD — adding to expanding data on the impact of lifestyle interventions.

However, time is of the essence for a paradigm shift in brain health to foster earlier detection and intervention. How can providers — especially those on the front lines in primary care — best adapt to this changing landscape and enhance care for older adults?

Join Alvaro Pascual-Leone, M.D., Ph.D. —chief medical officer and co-founder of Linus Health; professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School; and medical director of the Deanna and Sidney Wolk Center for Memory Health at Hebrew SeniorLife — and John Showalter, M.D. — chief product officer at Linus Health and a dual board-certified primary care physician — as they share insights into the changing landscape of cognitive care, the criticality of early detection, and the role modern cognitive assessment tools can play in streamlining testing and triage.
