About this trial
This Phase 2 study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and amyloid-lowering effect of AV-1959R in cognitively unimpaired adults with preclinical Alzheimer's disease. Approximately 160 participants will be randomized to receive AV-1959R or placebo and will be followed for 78 weeks. The study will assess safety, immune responses, brain amyloid, and Alzheimer's disease-related biomarkers.

Treatments tested in this trial
AV-1959R
Biological/VaccineInvestigational amyloid-beta vaccine, AV-1959R, 100 micrograms, administered intramuscularly with adjuvant at Weeks 0, 4, and 44.
Placebo
DrugPlacebo administered by intramuscular injection with adjuvant at Weeks 0, 4, and 44.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Number and percentage of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events.
Incidence of ARIA-E and ARIA-H
Number and percentage of participants with MRI-detected amyloid-related imaging abnormalities, including ARIA-E and ARIA-H.
Clinically Significant Changes in Safety Assessments
Number and percentage of participants with clinically significant changes in vital signs, ECG, laboratory assessments, physical examinations, or neurological examinations.
Change From Baseline in Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale Suicidal Ideation Severity Score
Change from baseline in the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) suicidal ideation severity score, comparing AV-1959R and placebo groups. The score ranges from 0 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater severity of suicidal ideation.
Secondary outcomes
T-cell responses to MultiTEP and amyloid-beta
Assessment of MultiTEP-specific T-cell responses and autoreactive anti-amyloid-beta T-cell responses, comparing AV-1959R and placebo groups.
Change From Baseline in Global Brain Amyloid Burden
Change from baseline in global brain amyloid burden measured by amyloid PET using the Centiloid scale, comparing the AV-1959R and placebo groups.
Change From Baseline in Plasma p-tau217/Aβ1-42 Ratio
Change from baseline in plasma Lumipulse p-tau217/Aβ1-42 ratio, comparing the AV-1959R and placebo groups.
Other outcomes
Change From Baseline in Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes Score
Change from baseline in the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) score, comparing AV-1959R and placebo groups. The total score ranges from 0 to 18, with higher scores indicating greater cognitive and functional impairment.
Change From Baseline in Plasma Amyloid Biomarkers
Change from baseline in plasma Aβ42, Aβ40, and Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio, comparing the AV-1959R and placebo groups.
Change From Baseline in Plasma Tau Biomarker Concentrations
Change from baseline in plasma concentrations of BD-tau, MTBR-tau243, total tau, p-tau181, p-tau231, and p-tau217.
Change From Baseline in Plasma Neurofilament Light Chain Concentration
Change from baseline in plasma neurofilament light chain (NfL) concentration.
