RIVERSIDE CA ADC 161874

Lilly's ongoing research and commercial efforts in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) present one of the most exciting opportunities in the history of the company. There is currently a significant, growing, and intense unmet need across all key players. AD is the sixth leading cause of death in the US, and of the top 10 causes of death, it is the only disease with an increasing mortality rate and the only one that cannot be prevented, cured, or even slowed.

Lilly’s goal is to make the dementia associated with the disease preventable. We are uniquely positioned to achieve this goal: following 30+ years of investment in AD research and development across both therapeutics and diagnostics, Lilly recently announced top-line results for the positive Phase 3 trial of a beta-amyloid plaque clearing therapy, which demonstrated a significant slowing of decline in a composite measure of cognition and daily function in patients with early symptomatic AD. With this ground-breaking positive data and the possibility of launch after receiving FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation, Lilly can address this significant unmet need by launching a potential best-in-class AD therapy in tandem with an arsenal of AD diagnostics that support the timely and accurate identification of patients who may benefit from the therapy.

Advanced diagnostics to confirm Alzheimer’s disease pathology are becoming an increasingly critical component of the diagnostic pathway to identify those patients most likely to benefit from therapy. Lilly launched the first PET amyloid imaging agent to identify evidence of amyloid pathology in the brains of living patients, in the United States in 2012. In 2020 the first PET tau imaging agent, was approved by the FDA

The combined AD diagnostic and therapeutic ecosystem (referral dynamics, comprehensive diagnostics, treatments, and care management) must be further developed for patients to be diagnosed and treated efficiently and effectively, to support positive customer and patient experiences. This position will be instrumental in supporting the development of the US AD ecosystem, most significantly as it relates to the utilization of and experience associated with our Alzheimer’s diagnostic and therapeutic (pending FDA approval) portfolio.
