CrenezumabforAlzheimer's diseaseFull results
API ADAD Colombia full results published in The Lancet Neurology: no significant slowing of cognitive decline in PSEN1 E280A carriers treated 5-8 years; crenezumab retained a benign ARIA profile consistent with its IgG4 design.

CrenezumabforAlzheimer's diseaseTopline data
API ADAD Colombia prevention trial missed both co-primary endpoints in cognitively unimpaired PSEN1 E280A carriers; small numerical differences favored crenezumab but did not approach significance.

CrenezumabforAlzheimer's diseaseInterim analysis
CREAD 1/2 discontinued: the IDMC's preplanned interim analysis showed crenezumab 60 mg/kg IV q4w was unlikely to meet the CDR-SB primary endpoint in prodromal-to-mild Alzheimer's disease; no safety signal.

CrenezumabforAlzheimer's diseaseTopline data
ABBY and BLAZE Phase 2 trials missed their primary endpoints in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease; an exploratory trend in milder patients at 15 mg/kg IV motivated the CREAD dose escalation.

ABBY and BLAZE read out in 2014 having missed their primary endpoints; dose-escalation modeling from their exploratory analyses shaped the later Phase 3 dose.source ↗

The biomarker study BLAZE (NCT01397578, ABE4955g, n=91) followed on 2011-08-31. Phase 1 studies preceded; this row starts the pivotal record.source ↗
