Sponsored by Hoffmann-La Roche · Phase 3, Interventional, and Treatment
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of gantenerumab versus placebo in participants with early (prodromal to mild) AD. All participants must show evidence of beta-amyloid pathology. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either subcutaneous (SC) injection of gantenerumab or placebo.

DBT Period: Change From Baseline to Week 116 in Global Outcome, as Measured by CDR-SB
CDR was derived through semi-structured interview with the participant and an appropriate informant, and it rated impairment across six domains: memory, orientation, judgment, and problem solving, community affairs, home and hobbies, and personal care on a 5-point scale for which 0=no impairment, 0.5=questionable impairment, and 1, 2, and 3=mild, moderate, and severe impairment, respectively. The CDR-SB is based on summing each of the domain box scores with total score ranging from 0-18 with higher scores reflecting greater cognitive and functional impairment. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

The standard 11 items (and corresponding score range) were: word recall (0-10), commands (0-5), constructional praxis (0-5), naming objects and fingers (0-5), ideational praxis (0-5), orientation (0-8), word recognition (0-12), spoken language ability (0-5), comprehension of spoken language (0-5), word-finding difficulty (0-5), and remembering test instructions (0-5). The test included 7 performance items and 4 clinician-rated items. The ADAS-Cog11 total score was the sum of all 11 individual items, with a total score ranging from 0 (no impairment) to 70 (severe impairment). Higher scores indicated more severe cognitive impairment. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

Brain amyloid load over time was assessed using \[18F\] florbetaben or \[18F\] flutemetamol tracers. These are PET radioligand selective to amyloid. Amyloid PET burden was measured in a composite region of interest (ROI) by using standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) mapped to the centiloid scale. The weighted composite target region are composed of (both left and right side): frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe lateral, cingulum posterior and anterior cingulate gyrus. The reference region used to normalize the composite region was the whole cerebellum. The centiloid scale anchor points are 0 and 100, where 0 represents a high-certainty amyloid negative scan and 100 represents the amount of global amyloid deposition found in a typical AD scan.

The ADAS-Cog13 total score includes all of the items in the ADAS-Cog11 in addition to delayed word recall and the number cancellation. For the ADAS-cog 13 the range is 0-85 (score range for Delayed Word Recall \[DWR\] score is 0-10 and for Number Cancellation \[NC\] is 0-5, thus the score is ADAS-cog 11\[0-70\] plus the scores for DWR and NC). A higher score indicates worse performance. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement in cognitive function.
