Statistical Disease Progression Modeling in Alzheimer Disease

Abstract: Background: The characterizing symptom of Alzheimer disease (AD) is cognitive deterioration. While much recent work has focused on defining AD as a biological construct, most patients are still diagnosed, staged, and treated based on their cognitive symptoms. But the cognitive capability of a patient at any time throughout this deterioration reflects not only the disease state, but also the effect of the cognitive decline on the patient's pre-disease cognitive capability. Patients with high pre-disease cogniti… Show more

“…Resultingly, time 0 of the latent disease timescale corresponds to the average state of the cognitively normal participants at baseline. We have made both the univariate and multivariate models presented in Section 3 available in the progmod R package 20 which builds on the maximum likelihood estimation procedures in the nlme ‐package 21 . Example data and code for fitting both univariate and multivariate disease progression models are available in the package documentation.…”

“…These transformed outcomes are modeled using a linear mixed‐effects model and the identifiability of the latent time shifts is achieved by assuming that disease stage is the only consistent time‐invariant patient‐level effect across outcomes. Another recent disease progression modeling framework has been proposed by Raket 20 . This framework considers the same problem but differ in some key modeling choices.…”

“…On the whole there have been few treatment successes (and none of these are disease-modifying) despite substantive investment in pharmacological compounds for Alzheimer’s disease in symptomatic populations and early promise shown in pre-clinical studies ( Gauthier et al, 2016 ; Winblad et al, 2016 ; Anderson et al, 2017 ). There may be a number of possible explanations for the many failures including inadequate drug dosages, incorrect treatment targets and inappropriate trial populations where the disease process is too far along to be amenable to treatment ( Raket, 2020 ; Shi et al, 2020 ; Yiannopoulou and Papageorgiou, 2020 ). There is a consensus that the genesis of AD pathology occurs decades before the onset of dementia symptoms ( Braak and Braak, 1997 ; Hardy and Selkoe, 2002 ; Jack et al, 2010 ; Bateman et al, 2012 ; Braak and Del Tredici, 2012 ; Jack et al, 2013 ).…”

“…Various disease progression and sub-type approaches have been proposed and developed. These include survival and multi-state models for investigating transitions between disease states ( Hubbard and Zhou, 2011 ; Vos et al, 2013 ; van den Hout, 2016 ; Wei and Kryscio, 2016 ; Robitaille et al, 2018 ; Zhang et al, 2019 ); mixed effects models (linear, generalized, non-linear) that incorporate subject-specific random effects and can be extended to handle latent time shifts, random change points, latent factors, processes and classes, hidden states, and multiple outcomes ( Hall et al, 2000 ; Jedynak et al, 2012 ; Liu et al, 2013 ; Proust-Lima et al, 2013 ; Donohue et al, 2014 ; Samtani et al, 2014 ; Lai et al, 2016 ; Zhang et al, 2016 ; Geifman et al, 2018 ; Li et al, 2018 ; Wang et al, 2018 ; Lorenzi et al, 2019 ; Proust-Lima et al, 2019 ; Villeneuve et al, 2019 ; Younes et al, 2019 ; Bachman et al, 2020 ; Kulason et al, 2020 ; Raket, 2020 ; Segalas et al, 2020 ; Williams et al, 2020 ) and can be combined with models for event-history data ( Marioni et al, 2014 ; Blanche et al, 2015 ; Proust-Lima et al, 2016 ; Rouanet et al, 2016 ; Li et al, 2017 ; Iddi et al, 2019 ; Li and Luo, 2019 ; Wu et al, 2020 ); event-based models which attempt to model the pathological cascade of events occurring as the disease develops and progresses through disease stages ( Fonteijn et al, 2012 ; Young et al, 2014 ; Chen et al, 2016 ; Goyal et al, 2018 ; Oxtoby et al, 2018 ); and various clustering approaches for discovering risk stratification/disease progression groups and endotypes. For example, those based on hierarchical, partitioning and model-based clustering algorithms/methods ( Dong et al, 2016 ; Racine et al, 2016 ; Dong et al, 2017 ; ten Kate et al, 2018 ; Young et al, 2018 ).…”
