Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound-Mediated Blood-Brain Barrier Opening Increases Anti-Programmed Death-Ligand 1 Delivery and Efficacy in Gl261 Mouse Model

Mohammed H. H. Ahmed et al.

Summary: Therapeutic antibodies targeting immune checkpoints have limited efficacy in clinical trials for glioblastoma patients. Ultrasound-mediated blood-brain barrier opening (UMBO) improves drug delivery to the brain. In preclinical models of glioblastoma, UMBO combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors showed increased overall survival and improved drug penetration.

Anti-Amyloid Monoclonal Antibodies are Transformative Treatments that Redefine Alzheimer's Disease Therapeutics

Jeffrey Cummings

Summary: Two anti-amyloid monoclonal antibodies, lecanemab (Leqembi) and aducanumab (Aduhelm), have been approved in the USA for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. These breakthrough agents slow the clinical decline of AD by targeting the disease's basic biological processes, supporting the amyloid hypothesis and amyloid as a target for drug development. Monoclonal antibodies bring about a new era in AD therapy and open doors for the development of treatments for various neurodegenerative disorders.

Microglia-mediated T cell infiltration drives neurodegeneration in tauopathy

Xiaoying Chen et al.

Summary: Extracellular deposition of amyloid-beta and intracellular accumulation of hyperphosphorylated, aggregated tau are characteristic hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. The regional progression of brain atrophy highly correlates with tau accumulation, and the mechanisms of tau-mediated neurodegeneration remain elusive. This study reveals a tauopathy- and neurodegeneration-related immune hub involving activated microglia and T cell responses, which could serve as therapeutic targets for preventing neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease and primary tauopathies.

Tau-targeting antisense oligonucleotide MAPTRx in mild Alzheimer's disease: a phase 1b, randomized, placebo-controlled trial

Catherine J. Mummery et al.

Summary: By inhibiting MAPT expression with a tau-targeting antisense oligonucleotide (MAPTRx), researchers were able to reduce tau levels in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease. A randomized, double-blind trial found that the CSF total-tau protein concentration decreased by more than 50% in patients treated with MAPTRx, with mild adverse effects reported.

Safety Profile of Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound-Induced Blood-Brain Barrier Opening in Non-epileptic Mice and in a Mouse Model of Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Bertrand Mathon et al.

Summary: This study aims to investigate whether ultrasound-induced blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption can promote epileptogenesis and how BBB integrity changes over time after sonication. The results show that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPU)-induced BBB opening leads to transient albumin extravasation and reversible mild astrogliosis, but does not induce epileptogenicity in non-epileptic mice. These findings provide persuasive evidence for the safety and efficacy of LIPU-induced BBB opening as a therapeutic modality for neurological diseases.

Amyloid-Related Imaging Abnormalities in 2 Phase 3 Studies Evaluating Aducanumab in Patients With Early Alzheimer Disease

Stephen Salloway et al.

Summary: The EMERGE and ENGAGE phase 3 trials provided data on ARIA associated with aducanumab treatment in patients with Alzheimer's disease. A high rate of ARIA was observed, with ARIA-edema being the most common adverse event. Some patients in the aducanumab group experienced associated symptoms, with headache being the most common.

Pilot study of repeated blood-brain barrier disruption in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease with an implantable ultrasound device

Stephane Epelbaum et al.

Summary: This study investigated the safety and efficacy of using an implantable ultrasound device to temporarily disrupt the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD). The results showed that ultrasound-based BBB disruption was safe and had the potential to be used as a therapy for AD patients.

Ultrasound-mediated delivery of novel tau-specific monoclonal antibody enhances brain uptake but not therapeutic efficacy

Rinie Bajracharya et al.

Summary: Tau-specific immunotherapy is a promising treatment strategy for Alzheimer's disease. However, the blood-brain barrier poses a challenge for effective delivery of tau-specific antibodies. Previous research has shown that low-intensity scanning ultrasound combined with microbubbles can increase antibody passage into the brain. This study aimed to assess the therapeutic response of ultrasound-mediated delivery of tau-specific antibodies.

High-clearance anti-amyloid immunotherapies in Alzheimer?s disease. Part 1: Meta-analysis and review of efficacy and safety data, and medico-economical aspects

N. Villain et al.

Summary: In 2021, aducanumab, an immunotherapy targeting amyloid-b, was approved for Alzheimer's disease by the US FDA. This approval has sparked controversy, as the European Medicines Agency refused to allow marketing of the drug and expressed safety concerns. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services also imposed coverage limitations. Other anti-amyloid immunotherapies have shown promise in clinical trials, but their risk/benefit ratio is still questionable after 18 months. The cost of aducanumab in the US may not align with its clinical benefits.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the safety and potential benefits of repeated extensive BBB opening for patients with AD. Results indicated that the therapy could help remove amyloid plaque to some extent, but further research is needed to ensure the sustainability of the effects.

A comparative study of the effects of Aducanumab and scanning ultrasound on amyloid plaques and behavior in the APP23 mouse model of Alzheimer disease

Gerhard Leinenga et al.

Summary: The study found that both Adu and SUS reduced the total plaque area in the hippocampus, with no additional effect observed with the combination treatment. In the cortex, only the combination treatment yielded a significant decrease in total plaque area compared to sham. The SUS and SUS + Adu groups were able to significantly reduce plaque load in some animals to below 1% from above 10%. The group receiving the combination treatment showed a robust improvement in spatial memory, and Adu levels were five times higher in this group compared to those receiving Adu alone.
