Objective To assess ARIA incidence, amyloid clearance and clinical outcomes in a real-world cohort of patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) undergoing amyloid-targeted therapy (ATT) in a memory clinic.

Background

ATT with Lecanemab and Donanemab has recently received FDA approval for AD. We assessed the relationship between cognitive measures, APOE4 status, amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), and amyloid clearance with ATT.

Design/Methods A retrospective analysis of 108 patients with biomarker-confirmed AD undergoing treatment with Lecanemab (≥12 months) or Donanemab (≥6 months) was performed. 19% of patients had AD confirmed via CSF (Aβ42, tau) and 81% via amyloid PET. Associations among ARIA, APOE4 status, amyloid clearance, and clinical outcomes were evaluated using nonparametric t-tests and Spearman correlation analyses. Twenty-three patients had baseline and follow-up amyloid PET imaging (Florbetaben). Ten patients had baseline CSF and follow-up amyloid PET imaging (Florbetaben). Cognitive measures included MMSE or MoCA. All scores were converted to MMSE utilizing previously published methods.

Results 78.3% of patients had robust amyloid clearance > 57 CL. Cognitive scores remained stable across the entire treatment cohort, with no significant difference between pre-treatment and follow-up MMSE scores. ?MMSE scores from baseline were significantly lower in patients who had diffuse amyloid burden in their follow-up imaging compared to those who achieved complete clearance of < 20 centiloid (CL) or BAPL1 (p = 0.041). ARIA occurred in 18.5% of patients, 2.7% were symptomatic. There was a moderate positive correlation between ARIA occurrence and complete clearance (p =0.022, phi =0.398). APOE4 carriers comprised 48.9% of patients (38 heterozygous, 6 homozygous).

Conclusions Amyloid-clearing therapies demonstrated robust amyloid clearance and overall clinical stability. Our findings support the safety and feasibility of ATTs in routine clinical care.
