Dear John,
We must act together now to have our voices heard.

More than six million Americans are estimated to have Alzheimer's today, and everyone who has the disease will die of it or with it. There are no survivors. A treatment for
Alzheimer's disease has not been approved since 2003. Those treatments that are approved only improve symptoms, and only for some. Not one stops or slows progression of the disease.
That could, and should, soon change. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently reviewing aducanumab, a new treatment for Alzheimer's. A clinical trial of aducanumab reported a 22% reduction in cognitive and functional decline compared to placebo.
It's time for more time for those facing Alzheimer's.

John, if an Alzheimer's treatment could provide more good days with your loved ones would you want it?

YES

Patients facing terminal cancers and other fatal diseases have benefited from approvals of treatments that offer them and their families more time. Those facing Alzheimer's deserve the same opportunity.
