    It cleared amyloid plaques completely from the brain in some participants, who were then taken off the drug.

    What was the result to the patient outcomes? Did the patients return to pre-demenia state or did their demenia progress simply halt when all the amyloid is cleared (from those patients that got completely cleared of amyloid)?
