SUBSTANCES AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CEREBRAL AMYLOID ANGIOPATHY RELATED CONDITIONS OR DISEASES

摘要

A substance for treating a cerebral amyloid angiopathy related condition or disease affecting cerebrovasculature in a patient, comprising an inhibitor that causes inhibition of the formation of membrane attack complex of the complement system; and a vehicle for transporting the inhibitor into the cerebrovasculature; where the inhibition by the inhibitor is sufficient to decrease the incidence of or to prevent the incidence of cytolysis of the smooth muscle cells. A method for treating a cerebral amyloid angiopathy related condition or disease affecting cerebrovasculature in a patient, comprising: a) identifying a patient with a cerebral amyloid angiopathy related condition or disease; b) providing one or more than one substance that comprises an inhibitor that causes inhibition of the formation of membrane attack complex of the complement system, c) administering one or more than one dose of the one or more than one substance to the patient.
