CAMD Recognizes Teva for Their Data Contribution to Parkinson’s Disease. Teva received an award for being the only member organization to contribute clinical trial data for Parkinson’s disease to CAMD. This data is critically enabling for our PD biomarker team and our PD modeling efforts. Watch this space!.

Pre-dementia Clinical Outcome Assessment (pCOA) Tool Project 10 Objective: Advance through a formal regulatory path a composite clinical outcome assessment tool as a primary outcome measure for pre-dementia AD trials Impact: Regulatory accepted / qualified clinical outcome measure to be applied across targets and industry stakeholders

Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) Stages Risk factors; family history, old age, ApoE4 genotype, TBI, mutations No symptoms, or subtle cognitive deficits (memory complaints) Emerging biomarker evidence of AD pathology Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) - episodic memory deficits aMCI combined with biomarker evidence of AD pathology = Prodromal AD AD diagnosis based on clinical symptoms; cognitive deficits & dementia of the AD type Biomarker evidence of AD pathology may increase specificity of diagnosis (?) Cognitive, Functional & Behavioral deficits Mild Moderate Severe Current diagnosis & treatment Cognitive Impairment MCI / Prodromal AD Symptoms Memory complaints Pre-Symptomatic No apparent symptoms Pre-DementiaDementia Johan Luthman 11

How to Measure Deficits in the Pre-Dementia Stages of AD? Cognitive, Functional & Behavioral deficits Mild Moderate Severe Current diagnosis & treatment Cognitive Impairment MCI / Prodromal AD Symptoms Memory complaints Pre-Symptomatic No apparent symptoms Pre-DementiaDementia Established Instruments to measure cognition lack sensitivity & responsiveness in early stages of the AD disease process –The regulatory standard Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog) developed for more advanced stages of disease –In Mild, Prodromal & Presymptomatic AD, ceiling/floor effects of ADAS-Cog limit the ability to detect and follow the disease progression Johan Luthman 12

Efforts to Develop Improved Clinical Outcome Measure Instruments Individual industry & academic efforts have proposed more sensitive and responsive instruments in early stage AD Some components (“items”) of currently used Instruments, especially cognitive measures, are more sensitive in earlier stages of AD (e.g., delayed word recall, orientation, word recognition) Leading proposals include items from ADAS-Cog, CDR-SB and MMSE as a Composite Clinical Endpoint emphasizing cognitive measures of performance Proposals are based on selection of key items from existing Instruments to develop a new composite clinical score Two general approaches: Improved weighting of ADAS-Cog items, Additional content to ADAS-Cog with items from other instruments (CDR-SB, MMSE etc.) Johan Luthman 13

Pathway for New Composite and Cognition Instrument 1) Various Composite & Cognition Scores developed by Industry and Academic Groups Eisai, AZ, Janssen, ADAS-Cog Plus (Dan Mungas), Merck, etc. 2) ADNI PPSB Clinical End Points Working Group 1.Mapping proposals from #1 2.Identifying all available databases (e.g., prior MCI trials) for validation 3.Selecting candidate Instrument(s) for Mild, Prodromal, and pre- symptomatic AD to move to #3 Harmonization of Efforts Regulatory Qualification 3) CAMD (Critical Path Institute): pCOA Project 1.Data analyses on candidates selected in #2 2.Submission Qualification request to FDA and EMA 3.Aim for approved new Instrument (as primary or secondary EP)

FDA issues draft guidance on early AD: alignment with pCOA 16 Feb 2013 “Because many of the assessment tools used to measure functional or global impairment in patients with dementia have not been validated for use in these early stage patients, we consider the use of a composite scale, validated in early stage patients to assess both cognition and function as a single primary efficacy outcome measure, to be appropriate.”

EMA recognizes need for improvements in AD 17 Three major issues have been important for assessment of recent and future clinical trial protocols in AD and other dementias: 1. New research diagnostic criteria are used in clinical trials for different stages of AD, 2. The potential use of several biomarkers in the different stages of drug development, 3. The use of appropriate outcome measures with adequate clinical relevance to be used at any stage of the disease continuum.

Graded evaluation of a clinical outcome measure  Statistically significant effect  Effect size  Clinically meaningful effect No clear consensus on a single definition for clinically meaningful difference in randomized controlled trials Multiple perspectives:  Patient (Patient reported outcome – PRO)  Caregiver  Clinician  Statistician  Payer  Healthcare economist  Investor  Regulator  Etc. What is Clinically Meaningful Effect? 19

Critical for Success: Aligning across consortia 20 Improved outcome measure
