Background: The introduction of tau positron emission tomography (PET) ligands has allowed for the in vivo assessment of tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The recent development and FDA approval of [18F]flortaucipir (FTP) reader guidelines has enabled standardized visual assessment of FTP PET scans as showing negative, moderate or advanced AD tau patterns, thereby facilitating implementation of FTP scans in clinical practice. Although various studies have reported associations between regional FTP signal and neurodegeneration, the relationship between the standardized visual FTP AD patterns and markers of neurodegeneration has not yet been studied. This study aims to understand how FTP AD visual patterns relate to markers of neurodegeneration from structural MRI and FDG-PET scans. Specifically, it focusses on characterizing regional neurodegeneration associated with the moderate AD pattern, both in cognitively normal (CN) and cognitively impaired participants (CI). Method: Participants from five cohorts were included: the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, Harvard Aging Brain Study, A4 study, the Geneva Memory Clinic cohort and AVID’s A05 study. These cohorts include CN participants, mild cognitively impaired and AD dementia patients who have available FTP, MRI and/or FDG scans, a subset also received follow-up MRI scans. Furthermore, Centiloid values are available for all participants to quantitatively determine amyloid-β (Aβ) positivity. All FTP scans are currently independently evaluated by three trained readers, blinded to clinical and imaging information. Majority read is used to assign scans to the negative, moderate or advanced AD tau pattern groups. Result: A total of 1948 participants underwent baseline FTP PET and MRI scans, a subset of 462 participants also underwent FDG-PET scans. Between-group differences in MRI- and FDG-derived patterns of neurodegeneration are evaluated cross-sectionally. In addition, the value of FTP AD patterns for predicting longitudinal neurodegeneration using MRI-derived atrophy measures is assessed using Linear Mixed Models. All analyses are conducted separately for CN and CI participants, as well as stratified by Aβ (positive vs. negative) status. NB. Results of these analyses will be presented during the conference. Conclusion: This study will contribute to our understanding of the clinical relevance and prognostic value of the moderate and advanced FTP AD patterns in CN and CI individuals.

Background: The advent of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with tracers such as [18F]flortaucipir (FTP) has allowed in-vivo visualization of aggregated tau in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recently, a clinically applicable visual interpretation method for FTP PET yielding negative, moderate, and advanced AD visual patterns was developed, leading to its subsequent approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Yet, the prevalence and longitudinal clinical outcomes of the different AD-associated visual patterns, in particular the moderate AD pattern, have not been investigated systematically across the clinical spectrum of AD. Method: We included cognitively normal individuals and patients with mild cognitive impairment and AD dementia from five observational cohort studies — Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI), Harvard Aging Brain study (HABS), A4 study, AVID’s A05 study and Geneva Memory Clinic cohort — all of which had available FTP PET scans. Furthermore, Aβ status, established with Aβ PET, was available in 1924 participants (98%), and longitudinal clinical and cognitive data was obtained for 968 participants over an average follow-up time of 2.2 years. Three readers, blinded to clinical and imaging information, will independently evaluate each FTP PET scan, and an individual’s FTP uptake pattern will be interpreted as negative, moderate, or advanced AD tau pattern, based on the majority read of the three readers. Multinomial generalized additive models (GAM) will be fitted to provide prevalence estimates of each FTP AD pattern. Mixed models for repeated measures (MMRM) will be used to estimate cognitive decline trajectories. Result: A total of 1963 participants had available FTP PET scans. We will investigate the prevalence of the different FTP AD patterns as a function of age per diagnostic group, stratifying participants by β-amyloid status and APOE genotype. Further, in the subset of participants with available longitudinal clinical data, we will explore how the different FTP patterns associate with clinical decline across the aforementioned diagnostic groups. Conclusion: Our large-scale study will contribute significantly to elucidating the clinical relevance of FTP visual reads across the AD spectrum, potentially widening its applicability and promoting its use in patient assessment and in clinical prevention trials.

We conducted a cross-sectional pilot study to explore the biological substrate of the Motoric Cognitive Risk (MCR) syndrome in a Memory Clinic cohort, using a multimodal imaging approach. Twenty participants were recruited and classified as MCR+/−. Amyloid- and tau-PET uptakes, temporal atrophy, white matter hyperintensities, lateral ventricular volume (LVV), and diffusion tensor parameters were compared between groups. No significant differences were found in imaging features related to Alzheimer’s disease or gross vascular damage. MCR+ patients had increased LVV and altered diffusion parameters in the superior corona radiata. Ventricular enlargement and microstructural damage of the surrounding white matter tracts could contribute to MCR pathophysiology.

Background subjective cognitive decline (SCD) refers to the subjective experience of cognitive decline in the absence of detectable cognitive impairment. SCD has been largely studied as a risk condition for cognitive decline. Empirical observations suggest that persons with SCD are heterogeneous, including individuals with early Alzheimer’s disease and others with psychological vulnerabilities and/or physical comorbidity. The semiology of SCD is still in its infancy, and the features predicting cognitive decline are poorly defined. The present study aims to identify subgroups of SCD using a data-driven approach and study their clinical evolution across 8 years. Methods the study population is the InveCe.Ab population-based cohort, including cognitively unimpaired people aged 70–74 years and followed for 8 years. Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) was carried out to identify distinct SCD subgroups based on nine clinical and cognitive features. Longitudinal changes by baseline SCD status were estimated using linear mixed models for cognitive decline and Cox proportional-hazard model for all-cause dementia risk. Results out of 956 individuals, 513 were female (54%); and the mean age was 72.1 (SD = 1.3), education was 7.2 (3.3), and 370 (39%) reported cognitive complaints (SCD). The HCA resulted in two clusters (SCD1 and SCD2). SCD2 were less educated and had more comorbidities, cardiovascular risk and depressive symptoms than SCD1 and controls. SCD2 presented steeper cognitive decline (Mini-Mental State Examination; β = −0.31) and increased all-cause dementia risk (hazard-ratio = 3.4). Conclusions at the population level, basic clinical information can differentiate individuals with SCD at higher risk of developing dementia, underlining the heterogeneous nature of this population even in a sample selected for a narrow age range, in a specific geographic area.

International audience; SimulAD is a computational disease progression model (DPM) originally developed on the ADNI database to simulate the evolution of clinical and imaging markers characteristic of AD, and to quantify the disease severity (DS) of a subject. In this work, we assessed the validity of this estimated DS, as well as the generalization of the DPM, by applying SimulAD on a new cohort from the Geneva Memory Center (GMC). The differences between the estimated DS of healthy, mild cognitive impairment and AD dementia groups were statistically significant (p-values < 0.05; d ≥ 0.8). DS correlated with MMSE (ρ =-0.55), hippocampal atrophy (ρ =-0.62), glucose hypometabolism (ρ =-0.67), amyloid burden (ρ = 0.31) and tau deposition (ρ = 0.62) (p-values < 0.01). Based on the dynamics estimated on the ADNI cohort, we simulated a DPM for the subjects of the GMC cohort. The difference between the temporal evolution of similar biomarkers simulated on the ADNI and GMC cohorts remained below 10%. This study illustrates the robustness and good generalization of SimulAD, highlighting its potential for clinical and pharmaceutical studies.

Amyloid and tau pathological accumulation should be considered for Alzheimer's disease (AD) definition and before subjects' enrollment in disease-modifying trials. Although age, APOEε4, and sex influence cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker levels, none of these variables are considered by current normality/abnormality cutoffs. Using baseline CSF data from 2 independent cohorts (PharmaCOG/European Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative and Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative), we investigated the effect of age, APOEε4 status, and sex on CSF Aβ42/P-tau distribution and cutoff extraction by applying mixture models with covariates. The Aβ42/P-tau distribution revealed the presence of 3 subgroups (AD-like, intermediate, control-like) and 2 cutoffs. The identification of the intermediate subgroup and of the higher cutoff was APOEε4 dependent in both cohorts. APOE-specific classification (higher cutoff for APOEε4+, lower cutoff for APOEε4-) showed higher diagnostic accuracy in identifying MCI due to AD compared to single Aβ42 and Aβ42/P-tau cutoffs. APOEε4 influences amyloid and tau CSF markers and AD progression in MCI patients supporting i) the use of APOE-specific cutoffs to identify MCI due to AD and ii) the utility of considering APOE genotype for early AD diagnosis.

Background: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a multifactorial disorder driven by genetic and modifiable lifestyle risk factors. Lifestyle primary prevention initiatives may reduce the prevalence and incidence of dementia in older adults. Objectives: The E.Mu.N.I study is a randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of multilevel non-pharmacologic interventions on cognitive performances (primary outcome) and structural and vascular brain MRI markers (secondary outcome), as well as markers of brain functional connectivity change (exploratory outcome), in older adults with subjective memory decline (SMD). Here, we present the study design and the baseline features of the sample. Methods: Cognitively intact older adults with SMD, enrolled between February 2016 and June 2017, were randomly assigned to one of the 3 interventions for 1 year: Active Control Intervention (ACI), i.e., educational lessons; Partial Intervention (PI), i.e., homotaurine administration (100 mg/die) and lessons on the Mediterranean diet; Multilevel Intervention (MI), i.e., PI plus computerized cognitive training and physical exercise training. Results: One-hundred and twenty-eight eligible participants were enrolled (66% female; age: 68 ± 5 years). Eighty-two percent of the sample was composed of volunteers with SMD from the community. Participants were randomly allocated to the interventions as follows: ACI (N = 40), PI (N = 44), MI (N = 44). No significant differences among groups emerged on socio-demographic, clinical–neuropsychological variables and MRI markers at baseline. Conclusions: The outcomes obtained from the E.Mu.N.I. study will clarify the efficacy of multilevel non-pharmacologic interventions on cognitive and neuroimaging markers in SMD individuals. This is a crucial step forward for the development of cost-effective non-pharmacologic primary prevention initiatives for AD.

The aim of the study was to investigate the association between postoperative delirium (POD) and in vivo markers of Alzheimer's disease pathology in nondemented hip fracture surgery patients. POD was assessed with the Confusion Assessment Method. Amyloid load was quantified on (18)F-Flutemetamol positron emission tomography images as standardized uptake value ratio. Secondary outcome measures were gray matter volumes, white matter integrity, and functional connectivity at rest. All the patients with POD (POD+, N = 5) were amyloid negative (standardized uptake value ratio

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology impacts the response to treatment in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), possibly through changes in resting-state functional connectivity (rs-FC)., Objective: To explore the relationship between cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers of AD and the default mode network (DMN)/hippocampal rs-FC in iNPH patients, based on their outcome after cerebrospinal fluid tap test (CSFTT), and in patients with AD., Methods: Twenty-six iNPH patients (mean age: 79.9 +/- 5.9 years; 12 females) underwent MRI and clinical assessment before and after CSFTT and were classified as responders (Resp) or not (NResp), based on the improvement at the timed up and go test and walking speed. Eleven AD patients (mean age: 70.91 +/- 5.2 years; 5 females), matched to iNPH for cognitive status, were also included. DMN and hippocampal rs-FC was related to amyloid-beta(42) and phosphorylated tau (pTau) levels., Results: Lower amyloid-beta(42 )levels were associated with reduced inter- and intra-network rs-FC in NResp, and the interaction between amyloid-beta(42 )and rs-FC was a predictor of outcome after CSFTT. The rs-FC between DMN and salience networks positively correlated to amyloid-beta(42) levels in both NResp and AD patients. The increase in the inter-network rs-FC after CSFTT was associated with higher pTau and lower amyloid-beta(42) levels in NResp, and to lower pTau levels in Resp., Conclusion: Amyloid-beta(42 )and pTau impact on rs-FC and its changes after CSFTT in iNPH patients. The interaction between AD biomarkers and rs-FC might explain the responder status in iNPH.
