Our Goals for Today

Enhance your understanding of the mechanisms of action
and latest evidence supporting the use of new and emerging
amyloid-targeting therapies (ATTs) for the management of early
symptomatic AD

Increase your ability to identify patients with early symptomatic
AD for whom anti-amyloid therapy would be an appropriate
treatment option

Augment your skills needed to employ principles of shared
decision-making when educating patients and care partners
about the risks, benefits, and goals of treatment with ATTs

Activation of resting microglia by ATTs + The hypothesized mechanism
behind the reduction of AB plaques
for all ATTs involves the activation of
microglia, which then phagocytize
fibrillar AB and facilitate its
degradation via the
endosomal/lysosomal pathway

Anti-AB Monoclonal Antibodies: The First

Disease-Modifying Therapies to Be Approved in AD*?

Impact on AD Pathobiology

Can lower amyloid plaques substantially and make many patients “amyloid-negative” within 12-18 months of
treatment

Consistent signals of impact on other AD biomarkers, including some biomarkers of abnormal tau,
neuroinflammation, and possibly neurodegeneration

Impact on Slowing of Clinical Decline

* Consistent evidence for moderate group-level efficacy (slowing of clinical decline for the “average” patient)
when amyloid plaques are sufficiently lowered in the right patients (clinically early-stage AD: mild cognitive
impairment and mild dementia stages of AD)

Treatments provide, “on average,” the equivalent “savings” of about 5-7 months of expected decline
compared to placebo over 18 months

Centiloid scores, the prescribing label recommends “consider stopping dosing with donanemab based on reduction of
amyloid plaques to minimal levels on amyloid PET imaging,” suggesting that a negative amyloid PET based on the
visual read is sufficient.

Future Directions

+ Unanswered questions need to be explored in ongoing studies

— Are the treatment effects in patients with typical AD observed in the trials
generalizable to broader populations?

> Racial/ethnic groups that were under-represented in the trials
> Patients with more medical comorbidities

— Can these therapies slow or prevent cognitive decline if administered to
patients with preclinical AD based on positive biomarkers?

> TRAILBLAZER-ALZ 3
> AHEAD 3-45

+ Initial detection and assessment of cognitive symptoms to identify risk factors for AD and
to rule out non-AD pathologies (should be performed by PCP)

— Don't dismiss mild memory complaints
- Assessments include
> Patient history, including family history
> Care partner perspective
> Medical and disease history
> Medications
> Lifestyle data (smoking, alcohol, exercise)
> Lab tests (B12, TSH, full blood count, BG, liver and renal function tests)
> Physical exam

- Neurologic examination (to rule out non-AD pathologies)
— Cognitive assessments: MMSE, MoCA
— Functional assessments: FAQ, A-IADL-Q, FAST
- Behavioral assessments: GDS or NPI-Q
- Brain imaging: MRI
> Rule out other non-AD causes of cognitive impairment

> Look for findings supporting an AD diagnosis

nical Staging for Indivi Is on the AD Continuum

Stage 1: Asymptomatic, biomarker evidence only

Stage 2: Transitional decline: mild detectable change, but minimal
impact on daily function

ATTs are Stage 3: Objective cognitive impairment insufficient to result in
approved for significant functional loss (MCI)
patients in

stages 3 and 4 Stage 4: Mild dementia
Loss of independence with
Stage 5: Moderate dementia progressively greater loss of
function
Stage 6: Severe dementia

Note: Clinical stages 3-4 correspond to

+ MoCA score ~ 18 to 25, or
+ MMSE score ~ 20 to 30

Role of MRI in t d AD!

Workup of MCI

+ MRI rules out other non-AD causes of cognitive impairment, including
- Cerebrovascular disease: microangiopathic changes and micro/lacunar infarcts
— Mass lesions: tumors, cysts, abscesses
— Traumatic brain injury: gliosis, hemorrhagic contusions, subdural hematomas
+ MRI identifies changes that are suggestive of AD
- Focal atrophy (ie, hippocampal atrophy, medial temporal lobe atrophy)
- Microbleeds are suggestive of cerebral amyloid angiopathy
+ MRI needed to evaluate patient eligibility for ATT antibody therapy
— Non-contrast MRI
- T1 FLAIR
- T2" GRE or susceptibility weighted imaging
— Diffusion-weighted imaging
- Preferably on a 3T magnet

AD Prevalence, Early Detecti

and Participation in Clinical Trials?

+ Older Black Americans and Latino and Hispanic Americans are at higher risk than
older White Americans to develop dementia

+ Despite higher prevalence of AD in racial and ethnic minority populations, these
populations are less likely to be diagnosed at a mild stage and receive a less
comprehensive evaluation at an early stage

+ Black Americans, Latino and Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific
Islanders, American Indians, and Alaska Natives were also under-represented in
Clinical trials for ATTs, which limits the generalizability of the trial outcomes to
these groups

Addressing Barriers to Implementing ATTs in the Clinic

Site-specific protocols need to be developed to facilitate roll-out of ATTs
Every clinic/institution will have unique barriers and challenges to address

Assess biomarker testing capabilities
+ Evaluate radiology/nuclear medicine capacity for performing and interpreting PET
+ Accessibility of CSF biomarker testing and interpretation

Be proactive about patient safety
+ Determine capacity for APOE genotype testing and genetic counseling
+ Educate emergency physicians and PCPs about signs and symptoms of ARIA

Assess financial burden of treatment
+ Determine costs/copays of each component (eg, medication copays, infusion center
fees, amyloid PET scans, APOE tests, CSF tests, recurrent MRIs to monitor for ARIA),
+ Identify local processes and barriers to obtain reimbursement of expenses
= Insurance coverage for ATTs depends upon geographic location and provider
— Pharmaceutical companies have patient support services to assist eligible
patients with the cost of treatment

Topics to Include in a Shared Decision-Making Discussion With

Patients and Care Partners Regarding ATTs!

AA + Potential slowing of cognitive and functional decline, but symptoms are not expected to improve
treatment + How will effectiveness be measured in individual patients?

+ Risks of ARIA and symptoms to watch out for, such as headache, confusion, dizziness, and visual changes
+ What are possible complications of ARIA?

Risks of ATTs + What is the patient's individualized risk profile, based on their APOE genotype, baseline MRI brain scan,
comorbid medical conditions, and current medications?

Commitment! ‘Significant commitment of time/effort/burden to receive frequent infusions, after the commitment to confirm
burden elevated amyloid via PET or CSF testing, and additional follow-up MRIs to monitor for ARIA

+ How much will treatment cost?
Cost + What are the additional costs associated with treatment (eg, pretreatment evaluations, safety MRIs, etc.)?
+ What is the insurance coverage?

+ Would a clinician consider patients younger or older than the age range selected in the pivotal trials?
Questions + What is the duration of treatment, and when should a patient stop? (This may vary, depending on which
remaining ATT is being considered)

+ Would the option of participating in a clinical research trial studying a different type of DMT, or a trial
studying a drug or intervention to enhance cognition (symptomatic therapy), be more appealing?

Educating Your Patients and Their Families/Care Partners
About ARIA

What do you need to know about amyloid-targeting therapies so that you can make an informed
decision about whether this treatment option is right for you?

The medication might cause some swelling and/or minor bleeding in your brain. This is called ARIA, and it is a common
side effect of this type of medication.

You will need several MRIs over your treatment course to monitor for ARIA
You are at higher risk for ARIA if you have 1 or 2 copies of the APOE e4 gene
ARIA is usually asymptomatic; however, sometimes ARIA presents with these symptoms

at Matters Most to Patients and Care Partners?!

+ Individuals experiencing early symptoms of AD are concerned about
— Memory (80%)
— Dependence (67%)
+ Most desired outcomes of AD treatment are
— Improvement or restoration of memory (67%)
— Stopping (58%) or slowing (33%) AD progression
— Maintaining ability to function, perform ADLs (25%)

+ Patients are also concerned about emotional well-being, a desire to preserve
independence, overall physical and mental health, and safety

Treated With ATTs?

+ Refer to therapy, support groups, and social work if not already connected
+ Establish with community resources for at-home and community services

+ Counsel on the importance of lifestyle factors in building up “brain reserve” to prevent
cognitive decline

— Mediterranean diet, physical exercise, social engagement, cognitive engagement

— Maintaining stable overall health and properly managing chronic health conditions
(diabetes, OSA, HTN, HLD)

+ Medications for symptom management

- Cholinesterase inhibitors are appropriate for patients with mild, moderate, and severe
dementia due to AD

— Memantine is appropriate for patients with moderate to severe dementia due to AD
- SSRIs may be appropriate for symptoms of depression and anxiety

When Should ATT Be Stopped Due to Disease Progression?

What is the optimal therapeutic window with ATTs?
+ These treatments are only approved for patients with early AD (MCI and mild dementia)

+ Lack of evidence supporting use of ATTs in patients who have progressed beyond mild
dementia

Discussion about whether to continue treatment can be framed as part of larger

ongoing narrative about how patients’ and care partners’ goals for treatment may
change over time

ATTs slow disease progression, which may lengthen time that patients suffer as dementia
progresses

Treatments also require significant commitment of time/effort/burden/expense

Shared decision-making approach can be employed to determine whether patients and
care partners feel that it’s still worthwhile to continue treatment

Pharmacologic Chall

+ Prescribing any medication for patients with early AD must follow a risk-benefit
assessment

+ The majority of patients are over age 65 and have comorbid conditions

+ Physiologic changes of aging affect the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
of drugs

+ Patients may be taking other medications that can interfere with the effectiveness
of dementia medications

+ Patients with early AD are at elevated risk of AEs and drug-drug interactions that
can limit the use of dementia medications

+ Patients with early AD may find it challenging to remain compliant with their
treatment regimen

Possible Repercussions of Excluding Patients Fri

Decision-Making Process!

Excluding patients with AD from the decision-making process can
+ Reduce quality of life

+ Induce feelings of powerlessness, frustration, and decreased dignity
+ Increase potential for inappropriate care decisions

+ Reduce sense of autonomy as the patient may feel excluded from choices directly
impacting their lives

+ Worsen patients’ mental and emotional state

PeerView.com/GBW827 Copyright © 2000-2024, PeerView

+ Listen carefully to what the person is saying; offer encouragement both verbally and
nonverbally (eg, make eye contact and nod)

+ Person's body language and facial expression can show a lot about their emotions

+ If you haven't fully understood what the person has said, ask them to repeat it; if you are still
unclear, rephrase their answer to check your understanding of what they meant

Supporting the person to express themselves

+ Allow the person plenty of time to respond—it may take them longer to process the
information and work out their response

+ Try not to interrupt the person—even to help them find a word—as it can break the pattern
of communication

+ If the person is upset, let them express their feelings; allow them the time that they need
and try not to dismiss their worries—sometimes the best thing to do is just listen and show
that you are there

Ways to Communicate With a Person With Dementia‘

+ Communicate clearly and calmly

+ Use short, simple sentences

+ Don't talk to the person as you would to a child—be patient and have respect for them

+ Include the person in conversations with others

How to pace conversations

+ Go at a slightly slower pace than usual if the person is struggling to follow you

+ Allow time between sentences for the person to process the information and respond

+ Try to let the person complete their own sentences

Tips for asking questions

+ Try to avoid asking too many questions or asking complicated questions

+ Try to stick to one idea at a time—too many options can be confusing and frustrating

+ Phrase questions in a way that allows for a simple answer (eg, a yes or no answer)

What to do if the person has difficulty understanding

+ If the person doesn't understand what you're saying even after you repeat it, try saying it in a slightly
different way instead

+ Consider breaking down what you're saying into smaller chunks
