GAP Study: Intravenous Immune Globulin (IVIG) Study

Legacy Study: Closed for Enrollment

Intravenous Immune Globulin (IVIg) has been approved and used successfully for over 20 years to treat a variety of autoimmune and immunodeficient diseases. Since the late 1990s, there has been increasing evidence that immunotherapy targeting the amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide can be used to treat Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Because it contains anti-amyloid antibodies IVIg is being investigated in a Phase III study as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease.
