Tau-PET is superior to phospho-tau when predicting cognitive decline in symptomatic AD patients
(2023) In Alzheimer's and Dementia 19(6). p.2497-2507- Abstract
Introduction: Biomarkers for the prediction of cognitive decline in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and amnestic mild dementia are needed for both clinical practice and clinical trials. Methods: We evaluated the ability of tau-PET (positron emission tomography), cortical atrophy on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), baseline cognition, apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) status, plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of phosphorylated tau-217, neurofilament light (NfL), and amyloid beta (Aβ)42/40 ratio (individually and in combination) to predict cognitive decline over 2 years in BioFINDER-2 and Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI). Results: Baseline tau-PET and a composite baseline cognitive... (More)

Results: Baseline tau-PET and a composite baseline cognitive score were the strongest independent predictors of cognitive decline. Cortical thickness and NfL provided some additional information. Using a predictive algorithm to enrich patient selection in a theoretical clinical trial led to a significantly lower required sample size. Discussion: Models including baseline tau-PET and cognition consistently provided the best prediction of change in cognitive function over 2 years in patients with amnestic MCI or mild dementia.
