A Study of Remternetug for Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease Caused by a Genetic Mutation
This study is testing a drug called remternetug for people who are at risk for, or already have, a type of early onset Alzheimer's disease caused by a genetic mutation. Researchers want to see if remternetug can help prevent or reduce the buildup of amyloid beta (Aβ) in the brain, which is thought to play a role in Alzheimer's. You would receive either remternetug or a matching placebo (an inactive substance) as an injection under the skin every 12 weeks. The study will also look at how safe remternetug is, how well people tolerate it, and its effects on disease markers like brain scans. The goal is to see if treating Alzheimer's at its earliest stages can slow down the disease's progression. The current status of this study is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study planning to enroll 280 participants. It compares remternetug to a placebo.
- What's involved
- Participants will receive subcutaneous injections of either remternetug or a placebo every 12 weeks. Brain scans ([11C]PiB-PET) will be done at the start and at Week 192.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary endpoint for measuring changes in amyloid load is at Week 192 after the start of the study.

What this trial measures
- Stage 1: Change in amyloid load as measured by centiloid (CL) [11C]PiB-PET as biomarker endpoint for DIAN-TU-002 remternetug armBaseline and Week 192
CL calculated using \[11C\] PiB PET non-partial volume corrected (regional spread function) standardized uptake value ratio cortical composite (PiB PET SUVR) is the primary outcome and change from baseline at 2 years is the primary endpoint.
