Demographic and clinical characteristics of initial patients receiving amyloid‐targeting treatments in the United States after regulatory approval
Little is known about the initial 924 patients receiving amyloid-targeting treatments in the United States from 2021 to 2023. They were more likely to be White and less likely to be dually eligible than the Medicare population. They resided in wealthier and more highly educated areas. Comorbidity burden was similar to that observed in clinical trials. Those initial results point to the need to improve equitable access to treatment.
