Abstract Background LUMIPULSE G-automated immunoassays represent a widely used method for the quantification of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) biomarkers in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Less invasive blood-based markers confer a promising tool for AD diagnosis at prodromal stages (mild cognitive impairment (MCI)). Highly sensitive assays for the quantification of amyloid-beta (Aβ) and phosphorylated Tau-181 (p-Tau181) in the blood are showing promising results. In this study, we evaluated the clinical performance of the recently available fully automated LUMIPULSE plasma marker assays for detecting brain AD pathology and for predicting progression from MCI to AD dementia stage. Methods A retrospective exploratory cohort of 138 individuals (22 neurological controls [NC], 72 MCI, and 44 AD dementia patients) was included. Data regarding baseline CSF concentrations of Aβ42, Aβ40, t-Tau, and p-Tau181 was available and used to establish the presence of AD brain pathology. Baseline Aβ42, Aβ40, and p-Tau181 concentrations were determined in stored plasma samples using high-throughput fully automated LUMIPULSE assays. Progression from MCI to AD dementia was evaluated during follow-up (mean 6.4 ± 2.5 years). Moreover, a prospective validation cohort of 72 individuals with memory complaints underwent AD biomarker quantification, closely mirroring typical clinical practice. This cohort aimed to confirm the study’s main findings. Results In the exploratory cohort, correlations between CSF and plasma were moderate for p-Tau181 (ρ = 0.61, p |
