The present disclosure relates to methods of administering compounds for treating conditions associated with amyloid processing such as Alzheimer's Disease. Methods are disclosed comprising the step of administering a macrocyclic lactone, a benzolactam, a pyrrolidinone or a combination thereof to a subject in need in an amount effective to decrease soluble Aβ-40 or Aβ-42, or to lower total amyloid precursor protein (“APP”). Methods are also disclosed further comprising the step of identifying a subject with increased soluble Aβ-40 or Aβ-42 levels, or elevated APP levels compared to a control population. |
