Résumé
Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) with underlying 4-repeat tauopathy is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by declining cognitive and motor functions. Biomarkers for assessing pathologic brain changes in CBS including tau-PET, 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO)-PET, structural MRI, neurofilament light chain (NfL), or glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) have recently been evaluated for differential diagnosis and disease staging, yet their association with disease trajectories remains unclear. Therefore, we performed a head-to-head comparison of neuroimaging (tau-PET, TSPO-PET, structural MRI) and plasma biomarkers (NfL, GFAP) as prognostic tools for longitudinal clinical trajectories in β-amyloid (Aβ)-negative CBS. We included patients with clinically diagnosed Aβ-negative CBS with clinical follow-up data who underwent baseline structural MRI and plasma-NfL analysis for assessing neurodegeneration, [ Overall, 21 patients with Aβ-negative CBS with ∼2-year clinical follow-up data were included. Patients with CBS with more widespread global tau-PET signal showed faster clinical progression (PSPRS: B/SE = 0.001/0.0005, [

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVE
Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) with underlying 4-repeat tauopathy is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by declining cognitive and motor functions. Biomarkers for assessing pathologic brain changes in CBS including tau-PET, 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO)-PET, structural MRI, neurofilament light chain (NfL), or glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) have recently been evaluated for differential diagnosis and disease staging, yet their association with disease trajectories remains unclear. Therefore, we performed a head-to-head comparison of neuroimaging (tau-PET, TSPO-PET, structural MRI) and plasma biomarkers (NfL, GFAP) as prognostic tools for longitudinal clinical trajectories in β-amyloid (Aβ)-negative CBS.
