Our Goals for Today

Enhance your understanding of the relationships between specific AD
biomarkers, the underlying neuropathological changes that define AD, and the
clinical manifestations and severity of cognitive and functional decline

Increase your ability to employ validated biomarkers to make an accurate
neuropathological diagnosis of AD in patients who present with symptoms of
cognitive impairment

Augment your capacity to select appropriate patients for treatment with ATTs

Improve your ability to educate patients regarding the risks, benefits, goals,
expectations, and delivery/monitoring aspects of treatment with ATTs based on
the principles of shared decision-making

Equip you with the skills needed to monitor and manage patients being
treated with ATTs, to optimize the safety and efficacy of these treatments

Alzheimer’s Disease: A Growing Epidemic!+

Currently there are more than 55 million people worldwide living with dementia

+ Number is set to grow to 139 million by 2050 because of the aging population
across the globe

AD is the most common cause of dementia and thought to account for 60%-80*

of global dementia cases

+ Total estimated annual worldwide cost of dementia is currently over US$1.3 trillion;
this is set to increase to more than US$2.8 trillion by 2030

A Multidisciplinary, Team-Based Approach Is Required
to Improve Care for Patients With Early AD

Memory clinics must shift to a medicalized practice model that ©

offers biological diagnostic testing and disease-modifying
therapies

+ CSF testing, PET scans, infusion centers for new treatments,
MRI safety monitoring

+ Multidisciplinary team may include neurologists, geriatric
psychiatrists, geriatricians, neuroradiologists, nuclear
medicine specialists, infusion therapists, neuropsychologists,
and geneticists

PeerView.com

PeerView.com/JNE827 Copyright © 2000-2024, PeerView

Implications for the Healthcare Team

A broad range of multidisciplinary providers need to be educated
about biomarker tests and DMTs

For example
+ PCPs and APPs should proactively inquire about memory loss
and take subjective memory complaints seriously; should also

conduct basic testing (eg, MMSE, PHQ-9, blood tests) and
structural imaging prior to referral

+ Nuclear medicine physicians need to learn amyloid and tau PET

+ Neuroradiologists need to learn how to monitor for ARIA

+ Emergency physicians need to know how ARIA may present in
the ED

Increasing the Number of Clinicians Who Can Provide AD Care
Through a Training of Trainers Approach’

+ Current activity was inspired by the CDC’s Training of Trainers model
— Master Trainers coach new trainers with less experience to build a pool of
competent instructors who can then teach the material to other people

+ Aim to provide practical guidance to AD specialists on early diagnosis and treatment of
AD consistent with most recent evidence and best practice guidelines
— Hope this will motivate participants to train peers and colleagues, and serve as
mentors/champions in their local practice settings

+ A Virtual Training Center (www.PACE-ALZ.com) has also been developed to facilitate
training of additional clinicians and improve practice behaviors
- Contains other current educational activities on AD, podcasts, slide sets, and
point-of-care Practice Aid tools

Clinical Stages of Alzheimer’s Disease‘?

Stage 1: Clinically asymptomatic, biomarker evidence only

Screening for preclinical AD is not
currently recommended outside of
clinical trials

Preclinical AD Stage 2: Normal performance in expected range on
cognitive tests, but decline from previous level of cognitive
function, without functional impairment

Mild Cognitive
Impairment

Stage

: Objective cognitive impairment without functional
impairment

Amyloid-targeting therapies are
approved for patients with MCI or
mild dementia who also have
positive AD biomarkers

Stage 4 (Mild dementia): Progressive cognitive and mild
functional impairment on instrume
independence in basic ADLs

‘Stage 5 (Moderate dementia): Progressive cognitive and
moderate functional impairment requiring assistance c
basic ADLs

Alzheimer's
Dementia

Stage 6 (Severe dementia): Progressive cognitive and
severe functional impairment causing dependence for
basic ADLs

Anti-AB Monoclonal Antibodies: The First
Disease-Modifying Therapies to Be Approved in AD1-10

Impact on AD Pathobiology

+ Many patients “amyloid-negative” after 6-18 months of treatment

+ May improve other AD biomarkers (eg, tau, neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration)

Impact on Slowing of Clinical Decline

+ Slows declines in cognition, function, and health-related QOL
+ Moderate group-level efficacy in patients with MCI and mild dementia due to AD

+ Treatments save 5-7 months of expected decline compared to placebo over 18 months

pecific protocols need to be developed to fa

+ 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
+ Identify and visit local infusion centers to meet with staff and medical directors
+ 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 test, CSF tests, recurrent MRIs to monitor for ARIA)
+ Identify local processes and barriers to obtain reimbursement of expenses

Key Information to Convey to the ED Prior to Arrival

The ED team needs to know the following details about the patient
and ARIA

+ Patient is being treated with an ATT for early-stage AD

+ The main adverse event with this treatment is ARIA, which can present with
stroke-like features

+ ARIA can also present with focal signs including seizures

+ Avoid tPA in patients being treated with ATTs, because it can cause
deadly hemorrhage in patients with ARIA

+ An early MRI with FLAIR, T2* GRE or SWI, and DWI sequences should be
performed for differential diagnosis

+ CT scans cannot adequately detect mild or moderate ARIA

Although the patients APOE genotype puts him at lower risk for ARIA and

symptomatic ARIA, there is a risk for all patients
= Will need to monitor him very closely with MRI scans
— Explain that ARIA is more likely to occur early in the course of treatment

— He will need to be vigilant about any symptoms of ARIA that may arise, and

What are the key points to discuss with this patient about ATTs? (cont'd)
+ Selecting the right ATT based on the specific circumstances of each patient

= This patient lives 2 hours away from the nearest infusion center, so the dosing schedule of the
treatment is a factor to consider

— The possibility of stopping treatment based on amyloid clearance that is verified with an amyloid
PET scan should also be discussed with the patient
+ The patient preferred the dosing schedule of donanemab (once-a-month vs twice-a-month infusions),
and she also wanted to have the option of stopping treatment if her amyloid plaques reduced to
minimal levels

more important to detect and diagnose AD early in the
disease course

+ Amyloid PET and CSF tests are both FDA approved and
reimbursed by Medicare

+» Reliability and accuracy of plasma biomarkers are rapidly
improving and some may be ready for prime time

+ ATTs are an exciting advancement in care for patients
with AD

+ Many complexities involved in selecting the right patients
for treatment and delivering ATTs safely and effectively

+ Incorporation of ATTs into clinical practice requires a team
approach (involving multiple specialties and professions)

+ Shared decision-making needs to include realistic
treatment expectations

+ Safety monitoring and appropriate management is critical
to successful utilization of these new therapies
