Abstract
Introduction: Alzheimer's disease can cause dementia through brain matter degradation. This study investigates the monoclonal antibody usage for AD treatment, following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, and aims to discern the monoclonal antibody that offers the optimal balance of efficacy and safety for individuals with AD.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted across databases such as PubMed, Cochrane Library, and clinical trial registries for randomized controlled trials. The quality of studies was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias 2 tool. Cognitive function and daily activities were evaluated using MMSE, ADAS-Cog, and CDR-SB test data.
Results: According to CDR-SB measurements, lecanemab showed effectiveness in reducing brain amyloid and cognitive decline, with a change from baseline of 1.21. Aducanumab resulted in a decrease of -0.39 (-22%). Bapineuzumab showed no significant benefit, with scores of 2.4 (2.8). Gantenerumab, scoring 1.69 (1.37, 2.01), reduces amyloid, particularly in early Alzheimer's stages. Crenezumab was ineffective, with a score of 3.61.
Conclusion: The findings provide various perspectives. Lecanemab showed the most promise in brain amyloid reduction and decelerating cognitive decline compared to the other therapies. Further research is needed, highlighting the necessity of AD therapeutic research to alter AD's trajectory and provide reliable treatment.

期刊介绍:
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy (1471-2598; 1744-7682) is a MEDLINE-indexed, international journal publishing peer-reviewed research across all aspects of biological therapy.
Each article is structured to incorporate the author’s own expert opinion on the impact of the topic on research and clinical practice and the scope for future development.
The audience consists of scientists and managers in the healthcare and biopharmaceutical industries and others closely involved in the development and application of biological therapies for the treatment of human disease.
The journal welcomes:
Reviews covering therapeutic antibodies and vaccines, peptides and proteins, gene therapies and gene transfer technologies, cell-based therapies and regenerative medicine
Drug evaluations reviewing the clinical data on a particular biological agent
Original research papers reporting the results of clinical investigations on biological agents and biotherapeutic-based studies with a strong link to clinical practice
Comprehensive coverage in each review is complemented by the unique Expert Collection format and includes the following sections:
Expert Opinion – a personal view of the data presented in the article, a discussion on the developments that are likely to be important in the future, and the avenues of research likely to become exciting as further studies yield more detailed results;
Article Highlights – an executive summary of the author’s most critical points.
