Emerging trials have shown a population-level benefit from amyloid beta (Aβ) removal in slowing cognitive decline in early Alzheimer's disease (AD). This work demonstrates significant heterogeneity of individual-level treatment effect of aducanumab in early AD. The greatest clinical responders to Aβ removal therapy have a pattern of more severe neurodegenerative process.
