China will cover Leqembi for early Alzheimer’s via private insurance starting Jan 1, 2026.
Leqembi (lecanemab), a treatment for early Alzheimer’s disease, has been added to China’s Commercial Insurance Innovative Drug List, effective January 1, 2026.
The inclusion, announced by China’s National Healthcare Security Administration on December 8, 2025, allows commercial insurers to cover the drug, improving access to this innovative therapy for patients with early-stage Alzheimer’s.
The drug targets amyloid-beta protofibrils, a key protein in disease progression, and is approved in 51 countries.
It was launched in China’s private market in June 2024 and is available via intravenous or subcutaneous injection.
The move supports broader access to cutting-edge treatments amid rising Alzheimer’s cases in China, where over 17 million people had mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia in 2024.
