Donanemab in Early Alzheimer's Disease

Mark A. Mintun et al.

Summary: In this study, donanemab showed improved composite scores for cognition and daily living activities compared to placebo in patients with early Alzheimer's disease at 76 weeks, although secondary outcomes varied. Longer and larger trials are needed to further explore the efficacy and safety of donanemab in Alzheimer's disease.

Soluble P-tau217 reflects amyloid and tau pathology and mediates the association of amyloid with tau

Niklas Mattsson-Carlgren et al.

Summary: Plasma levels of phospho-tau217 (P-tau217) accurately differentiate Alzheimer's disease dementia from other dementias, with increasing levels reflecting both beta-amyloid plaques and tau tangles. The correlation between P-tau217 concentrations and beta-amyloid PET is stronger in early disease stages, while in late stages, there is a stronger correlation with both beta-amyloid and tau PET results. P-tau217 mediates the association between beta-amyloid and tau, especially for tau outside of the medial temporal lobe.

Plasma biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease improve prediction of cognitive decline in cognitively unimpaired elderly populations

Nicholas C. Cullen et al.

Summary: Plasma biomarkers of amyloid, tau, and neurodegeneration (ATN) can predict clinical deterioration in cognitively unimpaired elderly individuals. A combination of these biomarkers in plasma can reduce the required sample size in clinical trials, making them more feasible and cost-effective while improving efficacy.

Summary: The study conducted in three different hospitals in Sweden from 2010 to 2014 found that certain mass spectrometry-based methods performed better for detecting brain A beta pathology compared to most immunoassays for plasma A beta 42/40 in patients with early Alzheimer's disease.
