Background: Lecanemab, a novel monoclonal antibody targeting amyloid-β, has shown promise in treating Alzheimer's disease. Comprehensive post-marketing safety data analysis is crucial to understand its real-world risk profile.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the safety profile of lecanemab using data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), with a focus on nervous system disorders and amyloid-related imaging abnormalities.

Background: Soluble species of multimeric amyloid-beta including globular amyloid-beta oligomers (AβOs) and linear amyloid-beta protofibrils are toxic to neurons. Sabirnetug (ACU193) is a humanized monoclonal antibody, raised against globular species of soluble AβO, that has over 650-fold greater binding affinity for AβOs over monomers and appears to have relatively little binding to amyloid plaque.
Objectives: To assess safety, pharmacokinetics, and exploratory measures including target engagement, biomarker effects, and clinical efficacy of sabirnetug in participants with early symptomatic Alzheimer's disease (AD; defined as mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia due to AD).

Three monoclonal antibodies directed against specific forms of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide have been granted accelerated or traditional approval by the FDA as treatments for Alzheimer disease, representing the first step towards bringing disease-modifying treatments for this disease into clinical practice. Here, we review the detection, underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical implications of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), the most impactful adverse effect of anti-Aβ immunotherapy. ARIA appears as regions of oedema or effusions (ARIA-E) in brain parenchyma or sulci or as haemorrhagic lesions (ARIA-H) in the form of cerebral microbleeds, convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage, cortical superficial siderosis or intracerebral haemorrhage.

Objective: This study aims to analyze the distribution of adverse events (AEs) related to Lecanemab in real-world settings based on FAERS database data.
Methods: Using the FAERS database, AE data related to Lecanemab was collected from Q3 2023 to Q2 2024. Signal mining was conducted using frequency and Bayesian methods to identify positive signals associated with Lecanemab.
