Biomarker Strategies for More Efficient Early-Phase Drug Development in Alzheimer’s Disease
May 21 | 11:00 AM-12:00 PM ET | Online

Brought to you by DIA in cooperation with ICON Plc

The development of validated biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease is essential to improve early diagnosis and accelerate the development of new therapies. It will aid in understanding the mechanism of action of a drug, identifying efficacy or toxicity signals at an early stage of development, and in identifying patients likely to respond to treatment. Biochemical and neuroimaging markers can facilitate diagnosis, predict AD progression from a pre-AD state of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and monitor efficacies of disease-modifying therapies.

In this FREE webinar, you will learn:
· Drug Development in Alzheimer's Disease – Using Data Analytics to Turn Challenges into
Opportunities
· The Use of Molecular Markers in CSF and Plasma in Alzheimer Disease – The Laboratory Perspective
· Advances in Imaging Biomarkers in AD Drug Development to Enable Accelerated Approval –
Fluorodeoxyglucose PET and Functional MRI
· Recent FDA Draft Guidance on Developing Drugs for Alzheimer’s Disease – Key Considerations
Presenters:
· John Allinson, VP Biomarker Lab Services, ICON Development Solutions, UK
· Niels Prins, MD, PhD, MSc, CEO, Alzheimer Research Center (ARC), Netherlands
· Michael N Liebman, PhD, President/Managing Director, IPQ Analytics, United States
