Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network Trial: An Opportunity to Prevent Dementia. A Study of Potential Disease Modifying Treatments in Individuals With a Type of Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease Caused by a Genetic Mutation (DIAN-TU)

Registration Number
NCT05269394
Lead Sponsor
Washington University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

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 improves disease-related biomarkers and slows the rate of progression of cognitive or clinical impairment.

Detailed Description

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized pathologically by the presence of accumulation of amyloid plaques and tau-containing neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in the brain. Amyloid plaques can be detectable within the brain some years before symptoms manifest whereas tau-mediated toxicity has been hypothesized to appear later during the course of disease. Phy...

Inclusion Criteria
  • Between 18-80 years of age
  • Individuals who know they have an Alzheimer's disease-causing mutation.
  • Are within -10 to + 10 years of the predicted or actual age of cognitive symptom onset.

Exclusion Criteria
  • Significant neurologic disease (other than AD) or psychiatric disease that may currently or during the course of the study affect cognition or participant's ability to complete the study.
  • At high risk for suicide, e.g., significant suicidal ideation or attempt within last 12 months. Current stable mild depression or current use of antidepressant medications is not exclusionary.
  • History or presence of brain MRI scans indicative of any other significant abnormality
  • Substance or alcohol use disorder 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.
  • History of cancer within the last 5 years, except basal cell carcinoma, non-squamous skin carcinoma, prostate cancer or carcinoma in situ with no significant progression over the past 2 years.
  • 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.

E2814 plus lecanemabE2814Symptomatic Population (Cohort 1) At Week 0, participants will receive open-label lecanemab administered intravenously for the full treatment period. At Week 24, participants randomized to E2814 will receive intravenously in a blinded fashion for the remainder of their treatment period. Asymptomatic Population (Cohort 2) At Week 0, participants randomized to E2814 will receive intravenously in a blinded fashion for the full treatment period. At Week 52, all participants will initiate open-label lecanemab administered intravenously for the remainder of their treatment period.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary end point is the change from Week 24 to Week 104 and Week 208 in tau PET in the Symptomatic Population (Cohort 1).Weeks 24, 104, and 208

To determine whether E2814 is superior to placebo, when each is concurrently administered with lecanemab, in the change from Week 24 to Week 104 (interim analysis) and Week 208 (final analysis) in tau spread as measured by tau PET in the symptomatic population (Cohort 1).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Symptomatic population (Cohort 1): Change from Week 24 to Week 104 and Week 208 in CSF neurofilament light chain (NfL)Weeks 24, 104 and 208
Symptomatic Population (Cohort 1): Key Secondary: Change from Week 24 to Week 208 in Clinical Dementia Scale - Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB).Weeks 24, 52, 104, 156 and 208
