Longitudinal clinical outcomes after amyloid clearance in aducanumab phase 3 studies.
Trial report in Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 3 registered trials, which are not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
introductionAnti-amyloid antibody clinical trials with a high proportion of participants reaching treatment-related amyloid clearance (TRAC) had positive clinical outcomes. We evaluated the aducanumab phase 3 program to determine whether TRAC during the double-blind period was likewise associated with clinical benefit.
methodsWe pooled ENGAGE and EMERGE (E/E) aducanumab-treated participants in the amyloid positron emission tomography substudy who continued into the long-term extension ≤ 134 weeks (continuously treated population) and/or returned to the EMBARK redosing study 0.7 to 2.5 years after termination of E/E (treatment gap population). Clinical outcomes were stratified by week 78 TRAC status.
resultsTRAC participants had less clinical decline at week 78, week 134, and EMBARK baseline than non-TRAC participants. Post-TRAC, clinical decline was heterogeneous; approximately two thirds of TRAC participants had annualized decline of < 1 point on Clinical Dementia Rating Sum of Boxes. DISCUSSION: In these exploratory analyses, week 78 TRAC status was associated with better clinical outcomes. CLINICAL
