Hi blindjohn

Welcome to Neurotalk

There is an Australian clinical trial looking at the effects of a drug called Etanercept on progressive dementia (ANZCTR - Registration).

I don't know about its current status but you could contact Dr Wee (in the link) for information.

Etanercept has been approved by the Therapeutic Drugs Administration for treatment of some auto-immune diseases with an inflammatory component.

I don't know if there are any doctors here who are prepared to prescribe it off-label for treatment of dementia but this is something that you could investigate.
