- Registration Number
- NCT06424236
- Lead Sponsor
- Washington University School of Medicine
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, biomarker, cognitive and clinical efficacy of investigational products in participants with an Alzheimer's disease-causing mutation by determining if treatment with the study drug slows the rate of progression of cognitive/clinical impairment or improves disease-related biomarkers.
- Detailed Description
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is defined by the presence of abnormal accumulations of amyloid protein (plaques) and tau protein (tangles) in the brain. The double-blind arm of DIAN-TU-001 Master protocol (NCT01760005) tested whether gantenerumab provided a clinical benefit by slowing the onset or the worsening of the disease. A clinical benefit was not observed i...

- History or presence of brain MRI scans indicative of any other significant abnormality
- Alcohol or drug dependence currently or within the past 1 year
- Presence of pacemakers, aneurysm clips, artificial heart valves, ear implants, or foreign metal objects in the eyes, skin or body which would preclude MRI scan.
- History or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular disease, hepatic/renal disorders, infectious disease or immune disorder, or metabolic/endocrine disorders
- Anticoagulants except low dose (≤ 325 mg) aspirin.
- Have been exposed to a monoclonal antibody targeting beta amyloid peptide within the past six months.

- Positive urine or serum pregnancy test or plans or desires to become pregnant during the course of the trial.
- Subjects unable to complete all study related testing, including implanted metal that cannot be removed for MRI scanning, required anticoagulation and pregnancy.

Group Intervention Description Gantenerumab Open Label Extension Gantenerumab Gantenerumab: Subcutaneously every 4 weeks, at escalating doses
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in amyloid load as measured by [11C]PiB-PET composite standardized uptake value ration (C-SUVR) Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 The composite PiB partial volume corrected standardized uptake value ratio is used as the biomarker endpoint for amyloid deposition. Corresponding analyses based on conversion of SUVR to centiloid will be performed by Washington University.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Annual Rate of change in Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) Sum of Boxes Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the CDR Sum of Boxes. Minimum score 0; maximum score 18. Higher score indicates worse performance.
Annual Rate of change in Tau PET Binding Partial Volume Corrected Standardized Uptake Value Ratio (Tau PET SUVR) Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the Tau PET Binding Partial Volume Corrected Standardized Uptake Value Ratio (Tau PET SUVR)
Annual Rate of change in Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) phosphorylated Tau (pTau)-181 Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) phosphorylated Tau (pTau)-181
Annual Rate of change in DIAN-TU Open Label Extension Cognitive Composite Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the DIAN-TU OLE Cognitive Composite. The Cognitive Composite is calculated using the WMS-R Digit Span Backward Recall (Minimum score 0; Maximum score 7. Lower indicates worse performance.), the Category Fluency (Animals) value (Minimum score 0; Maximum score Unlimited. Lower...
Annual Rate of change in Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) Global Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the CDR Global. Minimum score 0; maximum score 3. Higher score indicates worse performance.
Annual Rate of change in Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Minimum score 0; maximum score 30. Lower score indicates worse performance.
Annual Rate of change in Neurofilament Light chain (NfL) in CSF (CSF NfL) Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the Neurofilament Light chain (NfL) in CSF (CSF NfL)
Annual Rate of change in Functional Assessment Scale (FAS) Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in the Functional Assessment Scale (FAS). Higher score indicates worse performance.
Annual Rate of change in Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Amyloid Beta1-42/40 Week 0 and Weeks 48, 104, and 156 Evaluate the efficacy of gantenerumab in reducing disease progression as assessed in CSF Amyloid Beta1-42/40
