About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Dummy Study of Donanemab and RG6289 in PSEN1 E280A Mutation Carriers, and in Non-Randomized, Placebo-Treated Non-Carriers From the Same Kindred, to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Donanemab, RG6289, or the Combination of Donanemab and RG6289, in the Treatment of Autosomal-Dominant Alzheimer's Disease

The study will be conducted in 2 blinded parts (Part 1 and Part 2). In Part 1, study participants who are mutation carriers will receive active donanemab and non-mutation carriers will receive placebo-donanemab for up to 18 months (76 weeks), with a minimum treatment period of 9 months. Amyloid PET scans will be conducted at screening, 9, and 18 months in Part 1. Participants who are at or below 11 CL at screening or reach complete amyloid plaque clearance as measured by florbetapir F18 PET (defined as ≤11 CL) at 9 months will initiate Part 2. Participants who are ≤11 CL at screening may delay their entry into Part 2 for up to 6 months at the discretion of the Investigator. All remaining participants will start Part 2 after completing 18 months (76 weeks) in Part 1 independent of amyloid results. Non-carriers will receive placebo in both Parts 1 and 2.

In Part 2, study participants who are mutation carriers will be randomized 1:1:1:1 in a full factorial design to receive either RG6289 + placebo-donanemab (RG6289 alone group), donanemab + placebo-RG6289 (donanemab alone group), the combination of RG6289 and donanemab (combination group), or placebo-RG6289 and placebo-donanemab (placebo group). All non-carriers will be assigned to the placebo group. CDR-GS at the end of Part 1 and the amyloid level using the last completed amyloid PET scan in Part 1 will be used for stratification. All study participants will participate in a double-dummy design for the duration of Part 2 receiving both an intravenous (IV) infusion at the required interval for the donanemab or matching placebo as well as a daily oral treatment of RG6289 or matching placebo.

An exploratory outcome of Part 1 is a comparison of the amyloid clearance between this ADAD cohort and historical controls using propensity score matching. The primary outcome in Part 2 is change from the start of Part 2 through the end of Part 2 in brain amyloid load in PSEN1 E280A mutation carriers as measured by amyloid PET imaging. Other endpoints will include fluid and imaging biomarkers and measures of cognition and functioning. The maximum study duration for any individual participant will be 3 years, not including the screening or follow-up periods

What is being measured

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

  1. Part 1: Change in amyloid load as measured by centiloid (CL) [F18]Florbetapir-PET as biomarker endpoint

    Evaluate the efficacy and safety of donanemab on change in amyloid load as measured by centiloid (CL) [F18] Florbetapir-PET in presenilin 1 (PSEN1) E280A mutation carriers (Part 1). CL calculated using [f18] Florbetapir PET non-partial volume corrected (regional spread function) standardized uptake value ratio cortical composite (F18 Florbetapir PET SUVR).

    Measured: Part 1: Screening, Month 9, and Month 18

  2. Part 2: Maintenance of Low Levels of Brain Amyloid as Measured by centiloid (Cl) [F18]Florbetapir-PET Following Combined Intervention of Donanemab and RG6289

    Evaluate the individual and relative efficacy and safety, as well as potential synergy, of donanemab, RG6289, and the combination of RG6289 with donanemab, to achieve and/or maintain low levels of brain amyloid as measured by centiloid (CL) [F18] Florbetapir-PET in asymptomatic and symptomatic PSEN1 E280A mutation carriers. CL calculated using [F18] Florbetapir-PET non-partial volume corrected (regional spread function) standardized uptake value ratio cortical composite (F18 Florbetapir-PET SUVR)

    Measured: Duration of Part 2 Participation (up to 18 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Donanemab and RG6289 in people with Autosomal Dominant Alzheimers Disease and Early Onset Alzheimer Disease, run by Banner Health at 1 site in Colombia.

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 8 inclusion and 19 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 2 Sep 2026. 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 Colombia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 David Gordon, M.S. ((602) 839 - 6020, David.Gordon@bannerhealth.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Part 1: Change in amyloid load as measured by centiloid (CL) [F18]Florbetapir-PET as biomarker endpoint (time frame: Part 1: Screening, Month 9, and Month 18). The study lists 2 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 2 Sep 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
