Topic: Inflammation, microglia and astrocytes

SAR228810 is a humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) binding specifically to soluble protofibrillar and fibrillar forms of Aβ peptide. Compared to other anti-A β mAb, SAR228810 does not neutralize soluble Aβ monomers or low molecular weight Aβ complexes. Accordingly, SAR228810 binds to congophilic amyloid plaques (present only in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) patients) and not to Aβ diffuse deposits (present in most aged cases). SAR228810 was designed with an engineered immunoglobulin G4 framework that reduces risk of ARIA. The IgG1 framework of other anti-amyloid mAb carries the risk of Fc g receptor-mediated overactivation of microglial cells, which may contribute to an inappropriate proinflammatory response leading to vasogenic edema and cerebral microhemorrhage. Proinflammatory effects might also compromise any potential clinical improvements that these drugs could bring. SAR228810 has very low binding affinity to human activating FcγRs and no binding to C1q, demonstrating very low effector functions. SAR228810 derives from a parent murine mAb, SAR255952, with very low effector functions. SAR255952 and SAR228810 were administered weekly intraperitoneally inAPP transgenic mice (APP SL line). SAR255952 dose-dependently reduced brain Aβ accumulation and amyloid plaque formation as well as plaque-related inflammation in hippocampus. The effects of SAR255952 translated into synaptic functional improvement in ex-vivo hippocampal slices. SAR255952 showed activity from the dose of 3 mg/kg after dosing over 4 months. In agreement with its lack of binding to monomeric Aβ, SAR255952 does not lead to increase in plasma or CSF Aβ, further suggesting that SAR255952 remains unbound until it reaches its antigen in the brain (stealth antibody). The effect of the clinical candidate, SAR228810, was evaluated in the same model after induction of immunotolerance by transient depletion of CD4+ T lymphocytes. SAR228810 at 10 mg/kg/week showed the same level of efficacy as the murineSAR255952. SAR255952 (up to 50 mg/kg/week IV) did not increase brain microhemorrhages and/or microscopic changes in meningeal and cerebral arteries in old APPSL mice. Conversely, brain cortical microhemorrhages or degeneration/necrosis in meningeal and/or cerebral arteries was noted with 3D6, the murine antibody of bapineuzumab. Based on SAR228810 improved efficay/safety profile, a phase1 single and multiple dose administration clinical study in AD patientshas been initiated.

Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record and multi-centre collaboration, so those were left out: it earned 20 of the 58 points we could judge it on, which is 34 out of 100.
