Late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD) has a substantial genetic component, with heritability estimated to be between 40% and 80%, and the APOE ε4 allele is the strongest individual genetic risk factor for LOAD. Until recently, the APOE genotype test has been primarily used as a research tool and not recommended for clinical use. However, with the recent advances in disease-modifying therapies (DMTs), including several anti–amyloid monoclonal antibodies approved or in late-stage development, it is more important to determine which patients have...
