Nice signal but very minimal clinical improvement on memory testing, vs ~10% brain bleed or swelling with no clear research on longterm effect of those brain side effects

17% get brain bleeds. 7% have to stop because of more serious symptoms like stroke. Mind you, it's also a ridiculously expensive drug ($30k-50k) that has to be infused on your cerebral spinal fluid. All of that for a treatment that actually doesn't work.
