ABSTRACT:
A method to treat conditions associated with Aβ peptide activity both prophylactically and therapeutically is described. The method employs humanized antibody fragments that specifically bind human Aβ peptide between amino acid positions 13-28, wherein the antibody fragments are covalently attached to a polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecule.
