Yet another anti amyloid beta drug, so I don't expect it to do much.

Missed the boat

Your own source clearly says the problem is with research of one single kind of plaque, not with the whole amyloid theory of the disease, and that other groups have produced evidence of this relationship.

Not to mention the second reference completely depends on amyloid plaques to be of relevance, which again contradicts the point you are trying to make. Heavy metals are naturally present in the brain and their association with the amyloid plaques is far from being proved important, much less causative of the disease, it could be as important as the change of pigmentation of the skin on liver diseases, not a cause but an effect of the real pathologic processes.
