Exciting news! We're proud to share that our very own Dr. Demetrius Maraganore administered the first patient at East Jefferson General Hospital with intravenous Lecanemab (Leqembi), a breakthrough treatment for mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease. This marks a significant milestone, as Lecanemab is the first fully approved drug for Alzheimer’s disease in 30 years, and the only one shown to slow clinical progression (by 30% over 18 months). Curious to learn more? Watch Dr. Maraganore’s interview with Fox8 local news at the link below: https://www.fox8live.com/video/2023/11/14/lcmc-new-treatment-alzheimers/
