Happy to see this massive collaboration out covering 12 different cohorts including almost 3,000 cognitively unimpaired individuals. Plasma p-tau217 can be used to detect preclinical Alzheimer’s, but positive predictive values increase if +ve results are confirmed with CSF or PET

A next-generation blood test could personalize Alzheimer's treatment by revealing disease progression—not just diagnosis. BrightFocus Foundation grant recipient, Dr. Gemma Salvadó, helped validate this test to identify ideal candidates for anti-amyloid therapies. 🔬 Full story ⬇️

New Blood Test Could Personalize Alzheimer's Treatment Like Never Before
A new Alzheimer's blood test may reveal how far the disease has progressed and identify who's most likely to benefit from anti-amyloid therapies.

New paper published today in @nataging.nature.com ! This one took some time but it's always a pleasure working hand in hand with Laia Montoliu-Gaya and the Gothenburg team. Thanks also to the McGill group for also collaborating with TRIAD data. A 🧵 below. #ENDALZ

Huge development towards a precise and scalable diagnosis of #Alzheimer's disease. Plasma MTBR-tau243 is more strongly associated with aggregated tau pathology and cognitive function than 🩸 p-tau217. Suggesting similar results than tau-PET with significantly lower costs and burden for patients
