This randomized clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of the monoclonal anti-tau antibody semorinemab in individuals with prodromal to mild Alzheimer disease.
These findings further support the rationale for incorporating genotyping into clinical trials, particularly smoking cessation trials. Rimonabant demonstrated early and sustained smoking cessation efficacy only in noncarriers of the A1 allele. These results also underscore the risks of heterogeneity contributing to type 2 errors, when analyzing (phase 2 or 3) data. The potential clinical, regulatory, and commercial benefits associated with expediting and enhancing drug development, vis-à-vis the integration of biomarkers in clinical research, is supported by our findings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
