About this study

Official title: Prospective Study on Anti-Amyloid-β Monoclonal Antibodies Directed Against Amyloid for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease Coverage of Evidence Development (The Anti-Aβ mAb CED Study)

The Anti-Aβ mAb CED Study is a prospective, longitudinal coverage with evidence development (CED) study using clinical data, patient assessments, and administrative claims data of the Medicare population, conducted in accordance to the National Coverage Determination (NCD) on Monoclonal Antibodies Directed Against Amyloid for the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Read the detailed description

The Anti-Aβ mAb CED Study is conducted in accordance with the coverage criteria specified in the NCD for patients who have a clinical diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD or mild AD dementia. The complete NCD decision memorandum is available on our website (https://www.cms.gov/medicare-coverage-database/view/ncacal-decisionmemo.aspx?proposed=N\&ncaid=305).

Study Overview:

  1. Clinicians will conduct a neurocognitive evaluation to determine patient eligibility by confirming a clinical diagnosis of MCI due to AD or mild AD dementia, and the presence of amyloid using biomarker testing including imaging (amyloid PET), cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) studies, and/or blood tests.
  2. For all Medicare beneficiaries receiving anti-Aβ mAb treatment for MCI due to AD or mild AD dementia, the prescribing clinician will assess the patient's baseline clinical status by cognition and function assessments using validated tools appropriate for use in the MCI with AD and mild AD dementia populations and submit these data to the registry via the dedicated CMS CED submission portal every six months for up to 24 months (five total assessments).
  3. In addition to performing the required cognition and function assessments, prescribing clinicians will need to report on the patient's use of anti-platelet and/or anti-coagulation therapy and whether the patient has developed new amyloid related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) since the last assessment data submission.

  • Monoclonal Antibodies Directed Against Amyloid for the Treatment of Alzheimer's DiseaseDrug

    FDA approved monoclonal antibodies directed against amyloid for the treatment of AD

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in cognition

    Cognition measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA©) (score ranges from 0 to 30; higher scores are generally better).

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Change in cognition

    Cognition as measured by global Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) (each of six domains ranges from 0 to 3; lower scores are generally better).

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Change in function

    Function as measured by global Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) (each of six domains ranges from 0 to 3; lower scores are generally better).

    Measured: 24 months

  4. Change in function

    Function as measured by the Functional Activities Questionnaire (FAQ) (scores range from 0 to 30; lower scores are generally better).

    Measured: 24 months

  5. Adverse Events (Harms)

    Incidence of adverse events such as amyloid related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), stroke, infections.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mild Alzheimer's Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) Due to Alzheimer's Disease, run by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services/ Coverage and Analysis Group at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact CMS CAG (410-786-2281, CMS_caginquiries@cms.hhs.gov), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in cognition (time frame: 24 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Sep 2023.
