Long-term safety of gantenerumab in participants with Alzheimer's disease: A phase III, open-label extension study (SCarlet RoAD).

Background: Gantenerumab is a fully human anti-amyloid-β (Aβ) immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody for subcutaneous (SC) administration. The efficacy and safety of low-dose (105 mg or 225 mg) gantenerumab were investigated in SCarlet RoAD (SR; NCT01224106), a Phase III, double-blind (DB), placebo-controlled study in participants with prodromal Alzheimer's disease. Following a pre-planned futility analysis, SR was converted into an open-label extension (OLE) study.

Amyloid-Related Imaging Abnormalities (ARIA) in Clinical Trials of Gantenerumab in Early Alzheimer Disease.

Importance: Data from 2 phase 3 studies of gantenerumab, GRADUATE I/II, and their open-label extensions represent a resource to further characterize amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), including long-term sequelae.

Objectives: To describe the characteristics of ARIA and risk factors and clinical consequences of ARIA-edema (ARIA-E).

Design, Setting, And Participants: Secondary data collection from the GRADUATE I/II phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 116-week parallel-group studies and their open-label extensions, including PostGraduate, with up to 210 (mean, 125) weeks of total gantenerumab treatment were conducted between 2018 and 2023.

Clinical outcomes of tocilizumab therapy in polyarticular and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis: a single-center analysis (2018-2022).

This single-center retrospective study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tocilizumab (TOC) in children with polyarticular (pJIA) and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) who exhibited inadequate responses to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biological modifiers (bDMARDs). Conducted at the Department of Pediatric Rheumatology, National Institute of Geriatrics, Rheumatology, and Rehabilitation in Warsaw, Poland, between 2018 and 2022, the study enrolled 29 patients diagnosed with JIA based on International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR) criteria. The cohort comprised 13 sJIA and 16 pJIA patients, aged 2-18 years, receiving TOC treatment for 24 months.

Long-Term Safety of Gantenerumab in Participants with Alzheimer's Disease: A Phase III, Double-Blind, and Open-Label Extension Study (Marguerite RoAD).

Background: Gantenerumab is an anti-amyloid-β immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody for subcutaneous (SC) administration. The efficacy and safety of low-dose (105 mg or 225 mg) gantenerumab were investigated in Marguerite RoAD (MR; NCT02051608), a Phase III, double-blind (DB), placebo-controlled study in participants with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia. Following a preplanned futility analysis of the SCarlet RoAD study (NCT01224106), MR was converted into an open-label extension (OLE).
