Efficacy and Safety of Oral Valiltramiprosate in APOE4/4 Homozygotes with Early AD: Topline Results from the APOLLOE4 Phase 3 Trial

In the overall population, ADAS-Cog13 did not achieve significance, but the hippocampus showed significant 18% slowing of atrophy. The pre-specified Mild group showed trends to HV atrophy slowing that did not translate to clinical benefits. The pre-specified MCI group showed significant 28% HV atrophy slowing with meaningful cognitive and functional benefits and positive trends on several secondary clinical outcomes. Overall safety was favorable with no increased ARIA. In the high-risk APOE4/4 population, this positive benefit-risk profile supports valiltramiprosate's potential as an oral disease-modifying treatment for APOE4/4 homozygotes with MCI.

Abstract

In the overall population, ADAS-Cog13 did not achieve significance, but the hippocampus showed significant 18% slowing of atrophy. The pre-specified Mild group showed trends to HV atrophy slowing that did not translate to clinical benefits. The pre-specified MCI group showed significant 28% HV atrophy slowing with meaningful cognitive and functional benefits and positive trends on several secondary clinical outcomes. Overall safety was favorable with no increased ARIA. In the high-risk APOE4/4 population, this positive benefit-risk profile supports valiltramiprosate's potential as an oral disease-modifying treatment for APOE4/4 homozygotes with MCI.
