Ann Neurol, 2012 ChEIs improve cognition and show a greater degree of efficacy in DLB than in Alzheimer’s disease ➢ Clinical studies of DLB patients receiving donepezil demonstrated improvements in several neuropsychiatric domains affected by DLB ➢ Delusions, hallucinations and cognitive fluctuations ➢ Patients receiving 5 or 10 mg donepezil showed greatest improvement ➢ MMSE score improved by 2.0 to 3.8 points in those receiving donepezil over placebo ➢ Larger difference than that reported in other studies of ChEIs in DLB, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease dementia ➢ Shown in 12 week studies shorter than 6 months needed in Alzheimer’s disease Change from baseline Response rate (Improved MMSE≥3) 8 6 4 2 0 -2 -4 0 4 8 12 LOCF Mean MMSE changes (weeks) placebo ( n=32) 3mg ( n=35) 5mg ( n=32) 10mg ( n=36) • Significance level p<0.016 (Bonferroni correction) * Placebo 3mg 5mg 10mg 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 12.9 42.9 65.6 44.4 P=0.013 P<0.001 P=0.007 * 21 22 Treatment Approach for DLB – a disease affecting the cholinergic system A muscarinic M1 agonist is likely to have a superior profile 22 ➢ Greater cholinergic deficit in DLB patients relative to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients ➢ Loss of presynaptic cholinergic system reduces treatment potential of AChE inhibitors ➢ Post synaptic receptors more intact in DLB patients, potential for greater response to muscarinic M1 agonists Real opportunity for M1 agonist to have superior profile relative to donepezil in DLB patients The cholinergic channel is well understood… Acetylcholine (ACh) Postsynaptic Neuron AChE AcCoA + choline ChAT M1 R Choline + acetate ACh M2 (–) N (+) donepezil (AChE inhibitor) M1 R M1 R Presynaptic cholinergic Neuron DLB patients: postsynaptic neuron more preserved than AD patients DLB patients: presynaptic cholinergic system less preserved than AD patients P 23 Agenda 23 1 2 3 Introduction to DLB Diagnosis/Treatment Approach for DLB HTL0018318 M1 Agonist for DLB in Japan 24 HTL0018318 is a potential first-in-class therapy for DLB Highly selective M1 receptor agonist derived from StaR® & SBDD Selectivity is crucial.
