Leqembi Iqlik is a first-of-its-kind anti-amyloid treatment worldwide, offering at-home dosing for initiation and maintenance. It is administered via an autoinjector, offering a convenient alternative to intravenous (IV) infusion from the start of treatment. For initiation, the approved regimen is 500 mg once weekly, delivered as two 250 mg injections, each administered in approximately 15 seconds.
Leqembi Iqlik is already approved for maintenance dosing in the US at 360 mg once weekly, once 18 months of IV or subcutaneous treatment has been completed. Patients can now receive Leqembi either as an IV infusion or as a subcutaneous injection (SC) with Leqembi Iqlik throughout the entire treatment course – from initiation through maintenance and may switch between administration methods as needed, providing greater flexibility and convenience.
