Summary
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of intravenous (IV) infusions of E2814 in participants with dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease (DIAD), and to evaluate target engagement (TE) of E2814 on microtubule binding region (MTBR)-tau species in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in participants with DIAD.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Male or female, age 18 to 80 years at the time of informed consent
- Individuals who are confirmed to be mutation positive for presenilin 1 (PSEN1), amyloid precursor protein (APP), or presenilin 2 (PSEN2) gene that is associated with DIAD
- Clinical Dementia Rating - Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) score 5 to 12 at Screening
- Able to undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), lumbar puncture (LP), PET, and complete all study-related testing and evaluations
- Has a study partner who in the investigator's judgment is able to provide accurate information as to the participant's cognitive and functional abilities, who agrees to provide information at the study visits which require informant input for scale completion
Exclusion Criteria
- Clinically significant illness that required medical treatment within 8 weeks before the 1st dose or a clinically significant infection that required medical treatment within 4 weeks before 1st dose
- Females who are breastfeeding or pregnant at Screening or Baseline
- Females of childbearing potential who:
Within 3 months before screening, did not use a highly effective method of contraception
- Any neurological condition that may be contributing to cognitive impairment above and beyond that caused by the participant's Alzheimer's disease (AD)
- History of transient ischemic attacks, stroke, or seizures within 12 months of Screening
- History of clinically important carotid or vertebrobasilar stenosis, plaque, or other prominent risk factor for stroke or cerebral haemorrhage (including atrial fibrillation and anticoagulation). Low dose aspirin (less than or equal to [ ) 8 percent (%) (retesting is permitted if slightly elevated) or poorly controlled insulin-dependent diabetes (including hypoglycemic episodes). Participants may be rescreened after 3 months to allow optimization of diabetic control
- Abnormally low serum vitamin B12 levels for the testing laboratory
- History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, history of hepatitis B infection within the past year, history of hepatitis C infection which has not been adequately treated, or history of spirochete infection of the central nervous system (example, syphilis, Lyme, or borreliosis)
- Any other clinically significant abnormalities in physical examination, vital signs, laboratory tests, or ECG at Screening or Baseline which in the opinion of the investigator require further investigation or treatment or which may interfere with study procedures or safety
- Malignant neoplasms within 3 years of Screening (except for basal or squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the skin, or localized prostate cancer in male participant, or localized breast cancer in female participants)
- Answers "yes" to Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) suicidal ideation Type 4 or 5, or any suicidal behavior assessment within 6 months before Screening, at Screening, or at the Baseline Visit, or has been hospitalized or treated for any suicidal behavior in lifetime
- Known or suspected history of drug or alcohol abuse or dependence within 2 years before Screening or a positive urine drug test at Screening
- Any other medical conditions (example, cardiac, respiratory, gastrointestinal, renal disease) which are not stably and adequately controlled, or which in the opinion of the investigator could affect the participant's safety or interfere with the study assessments
- Concurrent participation in a clinical study involving any anti-amyloid therapies (including any mAb therapies) within 6 months before Screening
- Concurrent participation in a clinical study involving any anti-tau therapies
- Participated in any other investigational medication or device study in the 3 months or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of the medication before Screening
- Planned surgery which requires general anesthesia that would take place during the study
- Visual or hearing impairment that would prevent the participan
