Racial and ethnic differences in plasma biomarker eligibility for a preclinical Alzheimer's disease trial.

Introduction: In trials of amyloid-lowering drugs for Alzheimer's disease (AD), differential eligibility may contribute to under-inclusion of racial and ethnic underrepresented groups. We examined plasma amyloid beta 42/40 and positron emission tomography (PET) amyloid eligibility for the ongoing AHEAD Study preclinical AD program (NCT04468659).

Methods: Univariate logistic regression models were used to examine group differences in plasma and PET amyloid screening eligibility.
