ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method for the determining the appropriate therapy and/or prognosis for a patient diagnosed with a non-Alzheimer's disease (AD) neurological disease based upon the patient's apoE allele load. The invention also provides a method for the identification of human subjects with a non-AD neurological disease that are likely to respond in clinical trials that test pharmaceuticals useful in the treatment of neurological diseases.
